2A Front Street Reviews

Great place to stay, clean and comfortable.
Great for the beach 15 min walk and easy access for all Northumberland has to offer. Cottage was lovely.
Alison
The property was so lovely and bright. It was a credit to the owners. We had a fabulous time in Embleton and would definitely recommend 2a Front Street.
Elizabeth
Had a great week here. Short walk from here to the beach which the dog loved. The village shop opposite was very handy for a paper and sandwiches. Popped into the dog friendly Dunstanburgh castle hotel on a couple of evenings for a drink. All in all we had a very relaxed time. Thank you!
Stephen
A really spacious and well located property, rooms nice and lovely large livingdining area. Outside area is small but works well. Nearby pubs and village shop excellent, overall a great place to stay
Richard
An excellent house in a great location on the Main Street and shop, parks and pubs all a few strides away. Perfect for beach walks and other nearby attractions. Well equipped and serviced with a large central space internally and a wee outside yard.
Gillian
The accommodation was lovely very clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was catered for. We enjoyed spending time in the property. It is also in a great location with lots of walks from the property.
Lovely spacious property in a fabulous location to explore the coast.
Joanne
This was our first time to Northumberland. The location of the property is fantastic for exploring Northumberland and of course getting to the local pubs! Every little detail had been thought of and the cottage was very comfortable with a nice homely and relaxing feel, it was the first holiday cottage that our dogs actually relaxed in. We will be coming back to Northumberland and we are contemplating another stay in the cottage.
2A Front Street is a well equipped holiday cottage situated in a really delightful village with enough amenities to ensure your stay is trouble free. The property has been designed with a lot of thought and care with some lovely locally themed items decorating it. The property is comfortable throughout with a great efficient heating system for those cooler times of year. Parking to the rear is handy and easy to navigate. Location wise is ideal for those able to walk down to Embleton Beach and then beyond as is your want, we visited the Greys Inn, Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel, Village Shop and were impressed with everything on offer. I can assure readers of this review we will be back !
Angela
Great place to stay and great location . had everything we needed
Magdalen
Hi I would rent this property again as it was well laid out comfortable and lots of space in the open plan livingroomdiningroom . Embelton is a beautiful village with all amenities and a great shop across the road which we used daily. The beach is also amazing and very clean.All in all a great holiday home for couples or families . Magdalen
Thank you for an absolutely wonderful stay. This cottage had everything we could wish for and more. As we were there over Christmas we particularly appreciated the festive decor and thoughtful welcome basket touches. We enjoyed cosy fires, family meals produced in the well stocked kitchen, board games in the spacious living room and comfortable nights in the lovely, quiet bedrooms. Not to mention spectacular walks and a delightful village setting. All around fabulous.
This is a lovely cottage . The place was clean and warm on arrival. It has all the equipment you might need for a perfect stay. We stayed when the weather was snowy and cold but it was great to be able to return to a warm house with the added bonus of being able to light a fire. It is in a great location for accessing the beach and local pubs. Having a parking space at the rear is good. We would love to return!
Michael
We were impressed with 2a Front Street. The house was comfortable and well equipped. The location gave easy access to walks from Embleton. We also appreciated being able to walk to two places to eat where the food and service were good if not outstanding.
Robert
Great stay thanks
2A was a delightful base from which to embrace all the joys of a holiday in Northumberland. We have visited Embleton over many years and always loved it but this was by far the best place we have stayed in. The only thing I would add to improve it is decent facilities to dry wet walking gear. There is no airing cupboard or drying room and it can therefore take ages for wet clothes to dry. Otherwise, a perfect experience.
Charmaine
This is a beautiful property, the location is perfect for access to all the gorgeous beaches. We loved staying at 2A, the owners have thought of everything, that includes all the finishing touches and attention to detail. We would definitely stay again if the property is available.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at 2A Front Street. The cottage was beautifully presented, it had everything needed and was spotlessly clean. Wed definitely recommend it and hope to return in the future.
Elizabeth
We had a lovely stay for the 2 weeks and found everything very clean and well maintained. It would have been really useful to have an iron and ironing board due to us being there for 2 weeks.
Beautiful property in an idyllic location.
Jessica
A lovely home, and a really well thought out and comfortable place to stay for a holiday.
The property was beautiful very clean and comfortable, a minor issue with the heating system was dealt with promptly by both the owner and Sykes NCCC. The property felt like a real home with everything you could need to make the stay there enjoyable without feeling too cluttered. Embleton is a lovely village with great walks and places to eat on the doorstep, plus ideally situated for exploring the area by car. Would definitely return.
William
A very clean and comfortable house to stay and explore the area . Very well equipped . Perhaps better information on operating the heating would help both parties.
Jackie
Fabulous, extremely comfortable with all you need from a holiday cottage. Very well equipped for self catering, comfy beds and well located too.
Doreen
Absolutely super. Very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Looked as if everything was brand new and had only been moved in that day!!
Richard
Truely great cottage with excellent facilities and attention to detail. Stayed in many properties in Northumberland and this is right at the top
Lovely spacious property. Good base to explore the Northumberland Coast from.
Melanie
Lovely property in a great location, the cottage had everything we needed and was perfect to walk to the beach everyday.
Stewart
Location within the village was good for local amenities, shop, local eateries, beach and easy parking. House very clean and with a modern style. Road quiet at night so slept well. We all agreed beds were comfortable and would be more than happy to do a return visit
A fantastic clean property everything we could have hoped for.
2A Front Street was a beautiful holiday home, so beautifully and thoughtfully equipped for all our needs. Would definitely recommend this property. Close to the beach and a really nice farm shop opposite. We will definitely return next year.
Beautiful cottage, extremely well equipped and comfortable. The owners have paid such attention to detail. Everything has been provided down to a salad spinner! Perhaps an extra tea towel and cleaning cloths. Embleton is a lovely village ideally situated to explore the beautiful northumbrian coast in both directions. The village shop opposite the cottage is a delight.
Carolyn
A beautiful cottage, well designed and decorated to a very high standard and containing everything you need. Location is excellent only a short walk to the beach and with a fabulous farm shop opposite selling delicious local produce. There are a couple of pubs in the village so you don't need to drive anywhere if you don't want, and can explore the local beaches on foot. Loved our stay here and would definitely book again.
