Loved the location, the property had the potential to be superb but it lacked touches as follows- the outside space was extremely in need of improvement , it was grubby and needed weeding desperately. Inside the freezer had previous tenants leftovers which should have been outed, obviously not checked. Hoover was full and filters blocked.Welcome pack very nice and well received, kitchen well equipped but did lack a pair of scissors.

Easy access to local shops and places to eat in Amble.Plenty of walks away from traffic.Decking outside the property to sit out and watch the sun set over the marina. Off road parking for cars. Quite area outside the property.The property itself is well maintained.
