It was a beautiful place, very well equipped. The only down side that we found with having 6 adults , especially to girls that liked to spend a long time in bathroom was that it could have done with another toilet

We had a lovely time here. Cottage had everything we needed and was cosy and very clean. We were very central for everything we wanted to visit. Would definitely recommend.

Very clean comfortable cottage, within walking distance to all facilities in Amble. Very efficient central heating for chilly evenings ( we stayed last week in September).
