Guests say
Pelican Rest is a modern, well-equipped and spotlessly clean cottage, ideally situated for exploring Northumberland’s coast and attractions. Guests consistently praise its comfort, quiet location, and suitability for families and dog owners. The property offers easy access to beaches, local amenities, and scenic walks. While most found the house very comfortable and well maintained, a few noted minor issues such as limited lounge seating for larger groups, softer pillows, and occasional kitchenware needing replacement. Overall, guests enjoyed their stays and would recommend or return.
The majority of guests described the property as spotlessly clean and well presented, with only rare mentions of minor cleaning oversights such as pans needing attention.
The location is highly praised for its quiet setting and proximity to beaches, town, and attractions, though a few guests found it slightly further from the centre than expected.
Most guests found the house warm, comfortable, and relaxing, with comfortable beds. Some noted the lounge seating could be tight for five adults and mentioned a preference for firmer pillows or larger beds for taller guests.
The property is described as very well equipped, with modern appliances and amenities. Minor suggestions included more crockery for larger groups, improved frying pans, and a shower in the family bathroom.
Several guests appreciated welcome packs, including treats for dogs and wine, though these are not guaranteed. Owners were noted as responsive and helpful.
