  We enjoyed the bottle of wine and the biscuits provided. It was so useful to get 4 pints of milk. The bread was very useful too. There was a good supply of tea. We all enjoyed the coffee bags, which we had not had before! We were very impressed by the hamper and it was a really nice welcome, which made everything very easy as we were only staying for a few days. The dog loved her dog treats and the bowls and towel were very useful. The brand new, modern bathrooms, kitchen and décor. The showers and bath were lovely. The bedrooms were a good size and there was nice bed linen. The sitting room also worked well. We really enjoyed our stay. It is a great house in a great location. We loved Warkworth. For us it was good to be just 15 mins from the beach and 2 mins from the river for kayaking and walking distance to the shops and pubs. The house is comfortable, nicely decorated, good bathrooms and easy for a short holiday break.

  So, where else to go in the middle of a pandemic for holidays? A staycation in Northumberland of course! We have had a truly lovely and memorable holiday here with the best weather of the year so far. For a sun worshipper, I was not expecting to go home with a tan from the North East but the forecast exceeded all our expectations. I have seen more castles in a week than 20 years in Essex! We love it here, suffice to say I have been on Rightmove several times this week but sadly, nothing for sale in Warkworth. We have just got back from a smashing last meal at The Masons Arms where we all tucked into fabulous food. The Rushes… is not a home from home as its far lovelier than our old, draughty home! The taste is exquisite, love the art on the walls and objects of art. Super family holiday – thank you so much for making us feel welcome in your beautiful home, with best wishes and keep safe!

  We spent a wonderful two weeks in Puffin Cottage, it proved just right for us all. The location is fabulous, the option of walking in Seahouses or the beach at St Aidan’s bay for magnificent sunsets towards Bamburgh Castle, fun in the sea and on the sand, boat trips and food shopping. We love this region of the country and enjoyed returning to our favourite places and discovering new ones. Some recommendations would be Ford and Etal Castles (Castles, miniature train trips, cafes, Lady Waterford Hall with its pre Raphaelite walls, mill and the craft shops). We also enjoyed the local walk to the harbour, south to the caravan park which was a pleasant stroll. Bertram’s in Warkworth for food/coffee, the castle, river and beach all all lovely. A favourite of ours is Embleton Bay with views of Dunstanburgh from the North.

  We arrived to a lovely welcome hamper and there was even items for our dog, which was a thoughtful touch. It is a lovely cottage, well equipped and comfortable. After busy active days in the glorious weather the mega TV was a bonus for watching films together. It was helpful to have a well enclosed garden to keep our dog nice a safe. We enjoyed the coastal walks to Craster/ Dunstanburgh Castle. Holy Island and also to Beadnell and Bamburgh. The Billy Shiel boat trip was rewarding, although there was no Puffins at this time of year, but there was lots of seals and many breeds of birds. We recommend The Spice House Indian Restaurant as well as the cafes in Seahouses. The Smoke House on South street is a hidden gem with delicious seafood and fish. Thank you for giving us a good base for a lovely holiday.

  Fantastic accommodation with everything you could ask for! Nice big rooms which were excellently presented with the added bonus of a large enclosed garden for our dog, and us, to enjoy. The summer house was an added bonus where we could sample a bottle of wine looking out over the fields watching the sun go down. This is one of the best places we have stayed in. It was like a home rather than a holiday rental. It was a property you could move straight into and call home. It was exactly what we look for when choosing a place to stay. That’s what made it stand out for us. A lovely rural and quiet location but close enough to amenities. Both of us have been very impressed from the start to the end. It all felt very personal to us.
