Coble Cottage Reviews

Attractive and well located property. Everything needed for self catering was available and there were excellent facilities for babies and young children. Parking is tight for two cars but very welcome in a village where parking is at a premium. The location is excellent with very easy access to Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle. The bus stops right outside the Cottage although we used a car to visit the many interesting places in the wider area. All three generations of family enjoyed their stay.
Absolutely delightful, excellent location for exploring the fabulous Northumberland coast and more. Beautifully equipped to a very high standard. Especially pleased that there was enough crockery and cutlery for us not to have to put the dishwasher on all the time. AND large pans and some herbs and spices! One small matter, please, please a better bottle opener. There was a bit of a panic mostly from me when we struggled to use the little ones we found.

We've stayed at Coble Cottage three times and have enjoyed our stay every time. It's well situated right on the harbour and is a spacious, comfy, home from home for the family. We'll definitely be back!

Deborah
A wonderful stay. Cosy, comfy and a spectacular view and location. The cottage had everything we needed and as a party of 4 adults and 4 children we all loved the cottage. Thankyou so much we hope to return
Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location with everything you could need for the week
The cottage was fabulous, very spacious, very very well equipped, everything you would possibly need was available. The quality of the towels and bedding was absolutely excellent, something I love in a property but rarely see. Well Done to the owners. The information pack was jampacked with detailed information. Everything in the cottage was of high quality and worked perfectly. It was immaculate. I wouldn&39t hesitate to stay in the cottage again and have already recommended it to friends and family.
We have had a wonderful stay in Craster and the cottage has been superb. Love the high quality contents and if I could take home the Superking bed with me, I would it was sooo comfy. We have had some great days out and some fabulous meals too. This was the holiday we needed after the last 18 months and just wish we could stay longer. Thank you.
One of the best cottages we have stayed in over the 20 years we have been visiting Northumberland. We have never stayed in Craster before but we loved it the weather was fab and we had a great time spotting the dolphins off the harbour in the bay. Thank you.
The cottage was immaculate on arrival and what a cottage. It was so comfy and spacious and we loved sitting out in the front garden each evening total bliss! We will book again, love it, thank you!
Best equipped holiday house we have stayed in. Lovely beds! Plenty of space for 3 young children. Beautiful area with fantastic beaches.
What a lovely time we had. The house is laid out with special touches which made our stay even more enjoyable. Thankyou!
Very well appointed cottage in excellent seaside location. Ample space for 6 adults and three children. One of the nicest we have stayed in. Xmas decorations provided were a welcome addition
Wonderful stay at Coble Cottage. Beautiful furnishings and so well equipped. Really enjoyed staying in Craster.
