Bothy Cottage Reviews

Gloria
This was our second visit to 2-Bedroom Cottage in Longhoughton and we were not disappointed. The property was loverly. Clean and welcoming.The welcoming gifts were lovely. The views from the windows was great could see the sea . The site it self is well maintained. The paths to the beach are clear and easy to follow as is getting to the village . Overall a very nice place and well located for visiting local attractions .
Graham
The accommodation is basic the kitchen, dining living room is not well laid out and small. The bedrooms are also small and have very limited storage space for four people. Parking is easy and spacious, location is great with easy walking distance to the village and beaches. The hot tub is well maintained and clean and the swimming pool is small and ok for children. Overall the location is great but this is not the luxury accommodation as stated in the details for the cottage
Katherine
Beautiful accommodation with views out to the sea. Great open plan living dining room with central open fire. Lovely welcome pack and all the kitchen facilities you could need. Wouldnt change anything other than the hot tub open plans are very overlooked by the other properties and it put me off using it. Would be great if some willow partitions could be installed? But overall fantastic place and gorgeous 30 min walk to the beach with fab views of Dunstunburgh Castle.
Denise
Outstanding. Excellent value. The things that stood out. Location situated between Amble and Seahouses, quiet, views, very accessible walks, a bath and spacious shower, facilities in the cottage, the temperature was perfect throughout the stay heating needed no adjustment. Obviously the hot tub and swimming pool were a bonus. We would highly recommend this property
We absolutely loved our stay here and will definitely be returning later this year. Two very small things, no pint glasses and no icecube trays. Both were easily sorted on a trip into town.
Carole
We have stayed at North Farm many times over the years and we are never disappointed. Thank you again for another great week.
Lovely week. Accommodation was very comfortable. Pool was fab and well managed. As a parent arriving on my own with two kids, I can't describe how welcome the welcome pack was! Thank you
Melvyn
Quite basic and smaller than expected. The strangest heating system ever motion sensors mean the heating only comes on if it detects movement so you have to walk round the lounge every half hour to keep the heating on. It also means the place is freezing cold in a morning until you get up! Everywhere was verry clean however.
Leonora
Absolutely excellent could not fault a thing. A gorgeous cottage and an amazing stay. Would highly recommend.
Anne-theresa
The accommodation was first class and so clean. We enjoyed the hot tub and the pool . The view from the cottage was excellent. This was our fourth stay at North Farm and won't be our last.
Jackie
This was a fabulous stay . Everything was top class . Loved the hot tub at the ripe age of 70 we are converted . I love swimming so we had everything we wanted . We have been coming to this same area for 30 years and this was our best stay ever . The weather was amazing I could go on and on our only worry is that if we raved about it too much about it we will never get an apartment again !!! Well done hosts x
Brenda
A little coffee table would be nice as we were worried about putting our cups on the lovely floor. Also broachers informing what's about the area and post codes for addresses in your information booklet. Very nice cottage. Enjoyed our stay very much thank you
Lovely cottage with a beautiful view. Great to have a welcome pack, bread, butter, milk, orange juice and some very nice biscuits. Had everything we needed for a relaxing stay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was well equipped and exceeded our expectations. I did try using the EV charger, but unfortunately couldn't get it to connect with my car. No issue though as I found chargers near M&S in Alnwick.
Excellent communication from hosts and exceptionally well presented cottage. The provision of local supplies in the welcome pack were much appreciated on our arrival. Very warm and cosy and really comfortable beds, great shower, kitchen very well equipped, we all enjoyed the pool and hot tub and log fire, scrupulously clean. Relaxing quiet and scenic setting leaving us truly refreshed after a weeks stay. We will definately be staying again soon.
Another fab stay at North Farm Cottages! We will be back!
Carole
Lovely cottage, impressive well kept facilities, helpful staff. We really enjoyed our week in an area we love. We hope to return soon.
One of the best cottages we have stopped in,location was perfect with both beach and village within easy walking distance. Would highly recommended and will most definitely return in the future.
A wonderful cottage. We may well be looking to book this one again!
Our first visit to the Northumberland coast and what a beautiful place. 2-Bedroom Cottage in Longhoughton was excellent in every way & perfectly situated for exploring this stunning coast. The mown pathways to the beach and to the village were a real bonus, especially as my husband is disabled and uses a mobility scooter which easily managed the route to the village and the pillbox and picnic area, half way to the beach. The onsite team were friendly and helpful too and provided a shower chair for my husband which came in handy for him whilst using the wash hand basin too. The indoor pool was perfect, although my son and I only managed one swim as our schedule was pretty packed! We're sorry we didn't get to try out the hot tub, again partly due to our busy schedule and the chilly wind blowing across! We will most certainly come again and would recommend it to anyone wanting a peaceful spot in a clean, well equipped and comfy cottage with far reaching seascape views. The only thing that could be improved, and we are being picky here, is more coat hangers and a couple of small side tables by the second settee to put our drinks on. Otherwise perfect Thank you!
Exceptional cottage. Lovely and clean with everything you could need. Just one tiny thing there was no tin opener and I would suggest a long mirror in one of the rooms near a plug as there is no way you can dry your hair and look in the mirror! But overall exceptional 100 we would stay again
Gloria
Great place to stay. Loverly surroundings. Clean and tidy all round. Very well equipped. The welcome pack was great and a nice touch. Hot tub great Swimming pool a added bonus. The path to the beach and to the village were a great asset and it was good how the owners have made the paths and great to use. Would highly recommend staying there to friends etc
Claire
Absolutely fantastic stay , at this, beautiful cottage, the hot tub and use of swim pool was a fantastic bonus , the views were outstanding and was lovely to wake up to every morning, was sad to leave , cant wait to book again, would highly recommend.
