Cra-na-ge Reviews

Howard

It was a lovely cottage in a super quiet spot nestled in a quaint village. All mod cons available and very comfy.

A lovely cottage in a great location short walk to the beach and handy local shops. It was the best equipped property that we have ever stayed in and had a garden that was a sun trap. It was in a quiet location and we will be booking again for next year. The owner was very helpful too .

Craig bent over backwards to ensure our stay was perfect. The house is homely, well equipped, spotlessly clean and an easy walk to Embleton and the beach.

Did exactly what it said on the tin.

A very pleasant house in a good position. The property was very clean and comfortable with every facility you could want. It is spacious, bright and well equipped and the owner was very helpful and friendly. Embleton is in a very good position to access all the lovely areas of coastal Northumberland and has two very good eateries and a village shop. The local village hall Creighton Hall in the centre of the village also often has events on.

Cranage was a great base for exploring this area. Although he was on holiday the property owner was in touch often to ensure all was going well. Property was clean and comfortable with easy to use kitchen appliances. There was a lovely well maintained garden for sitting out in.

Craig is a lovely host. Cottage is warm, comfy and has everything you need. Beautiful peaceful area and easy to access all the sights of Northumberland. Bus timetables should be taken with a pinch of salt but do go to local attractions!

Christopher

A lovely, cosy family house, very clean and wellmaintained, with all the facilities and home comforts you could want. Near to all the best attractions, with two great local pubs and a shop. Highly recomended.

Comfortable and cosy home with a well equipped kitchen and comfy lounge. Craig is a super kind host too.

Roderick

Really comfortable cottage in quiet location. A 10 to 15 minute walk from the beach. Spotlessly clean, well presented and provisioned. Really helpful information in the cottage for touring, walking etc and for use of facilities. Good off road parking for 2 cars. Would definitely return.

What a lovely place and host Craig was more than welcoming everything you need ... What a lovely place and host Craig was more than welcoming everything you need bigger than I thought too lovely garden just a home from home thankyou

Lovely holiday home with everything you need and a great position to explore the coast and beyond. The owner was extremely helpful and supplied all necessary supplies milk,tea,coffee,sugar,washing tabs etc. The house was very well maintained and the beds clean and comfortable.

Matthew

Property was lovely. Owner had thought of everything. Liked the fact that cleaning supplies were provided, reduced the amount of things we needed to bring. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment. Garden was beautiful, loved the animal game. Owner replied to queries quickly.

Very well equipped and comfortable accommodation with outside decking, seating area and sunny garden. Quiet location and off road parking for 2 cars. Approx 20 minute walk to the beach. Craig was very helpful and made us feel very welcome to Cranage. Very useful having 2 shower rooms for our family of 6 adults and a baby. Would recommend.

Surrinder

Thanks Craig we enjoyed staying at Cranage, your property has a lovely homely feel and has everything you could need for a self catering holiday, including umbrellas which unfortunately we did use as the July weather was very mixed. The location in Embleton is wonderful, central to travel north towards Bamburgh or south towards nature reserves at Low Hauxley and Druridge Bay but a big plus for us was the fact that your property is in a village where people actually live and give you the time of day there is still a school and a community, not just second homes.

Rebecca

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cranage. Seldom do you see a holiday let so well stocked and prepared Craig had thought of everything. He was extremely welcoming and was on hand for any help we might need. The cottage is really well situated and very comfortable. It was a great base to explore the local area. We would definitely like to return for a further visit.

Great host, friendly and helpful.

Agatha

We enjoyed a great stay here. A lovely well equipped cottage with character in a fantastic location for all Northumberland coast and inland visits.

Christopher

Really enjoyed our stay, Craig the owner could not have been more helpful. We took our bikes with us and Craig allowed us to lock them in his summer house in the garden. The gardens front and rear were well kept and were great for sitting out in the sunshine. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped The location is delightful very close to Craster Dunstanburgh , nice pubs nearby Would we stay there again. Yes we would.

The cottage was lovely, the owner went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and more. We got to meet the owner which was a nice personal touch, and he gave us lots of information on the area too. The cottage was in a beautiful village with one of my now favourite beaches a short walk away. We would definitely recommend.

Lovely well equipped cottage. Excellent location for visiting Northumberland. Craig the owner was very helpful. Would highly recommend.

A nice cottage in a good location for exploring Northumberland. We were welcomed by the owner in person and had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay. There is a lovely sandy beach within walking distance which goes as far as Dunstanburgh Castle if you like a fairly long walk!

The holiday cottage was beautiful inside and out. We were a family 5, 2 adults and 3 children. The house was very clean, was fully equipped with everything. You do not need to bring anything!! Craig has literally thought of everything. When we arrived, we were greeted with milk, teabags coffee and a newspaper and cake. He asked us if we needed anything else and was prepared to bring what we needed but we were ok. He came to see us in the evening to show us round the cottage. He even went out of his way to learn a bit of sign language as my mum and my 12 yr old are profoundly deaf and this made their day. The cottage is in a beautiful peaceful location and is not far from all the attractions. Our favourite place was beadnell beach, it's paradise. kids enjoyed doing nature animal hunt in the garden. The washing machine and dryer is a god send, luckily the weather was on our side most days so was able to peg it out. Thank you Craig it was lovely to meet you and thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. We will back again.

Caroline

The cottage was very well equipped, clean and comfortable, with a safe, enclosed garden great for the kids. We had a baby with us and everything was provided, including a baby bath which was useful as there is no bath in the property it has two showers. The location of the cottage is in a quiet culdesac in Embleton, a lovely village a short distance from the beach which remains wonderfully unspoilt even though it is over 30 years since I last visited. Thank you Craig and Vanessa.

Nadine

Fabulous cottage in brilliant location. Loads of space for a family of 5. Very hospitable owner who went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful time. Best holiday cottage weve stayed in!

Leslie

Immaculately clean house with everything we needed. The owner Craig was welcoming and helpful who went out of his way to provide milk bread and paper and eggs for our arrival. No need to bring cleaning materials everything provided. Thanks Craig

Lovely holiday home, with everything we needed and more. Quiet location but only a 5 min walk to shop and pubsrestaurants. Great secure gardens and excellent clothes washing facilities. Add the dryer to the description info? We will return. Thank you Craig. It was nice to meet you.

Michael John

Arguably the best Sykes Cottage I've stayed in over many years. Best in that it more than adequately equipped, really clean and well maintained. Craig was extremely helpful and took a genuine personal interest in the cottage, its condition, and all its fittings. Full marks 10 out of 10 A Star.

Great holiday home. Really well equipped and in a perfect location to explore the beautiful area. Craig the owner is super helpful with everything. We stayed for 2 weeks and had a fab time.

Patricia

Excellent accommodation for family of 5 spotlessly clean comfortable home from home. Owner very welcoming and very helpful. Children appreciated the task of searching garden for animals etc. It is in a lovely part of the Northumbrian coastline but perhaps I m biased as I am Northumbrian born!

I thought it was nice how all the cleaning items were supplied by the owner, Craig. It was good having plenty of glassware, pots and pans.

Jeffrey

The cottage is exactly as described in the listing. It is comfortable and very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Craig was very friendly and helpful explaining where everything was. The village is ideal for exploring the lovely coast or walking inland. The weather was kind and we had a lovely time. From the comments book some people come back regularly. We would too if it wasn't quite so far from home. Thank you again Craig.

A lovely comfortable cottage, Craig the owner was there to meet us and explained where everything was in the cottage. He is very helpful and easy to get on with. We had a lovey week.

Owner Craig a great bloke, very helpful and obliging, nothing too much trouble. Very clean and comfortable cottage in a very good location for getting around.

Lovely cottage and owner. Due to a covid diagnosis we cut the holiday short after 2 days. Despite having paid for insurance, several requests to discuss at least a partial refund have been denied. Apparently we could have done our 10 days quarantine in a cottage we had booked for 7 days. I wont be booking with you again and I will not be recommending you.

We have been to cranage before and love the personal touch offered by the owner who makes it a home away from home. First class and would recommend this venue to others.

Nice Cottage in Good location Lovely area plenty to explore Mr and Mrs Darby

This is a lovely, peaceful home in a quiet village with a large garden, offroad parking and easy access to the coast. Craig, the owner, is very helpful and friendly, and easy to contact if needed. On arrival Craig guided us around the cottage and advised on use of appliances etc. As a couple with no children we found the cottage roomy and comfortable with everything that we needed available. There were items of equipment available to keep children safe if needed, such as stair gates, high chair etc Craig has thought of everything. The county of Northumberland is beautiful with numerous opportunities for seeing wildlife and nature, walking along sandy beaches and finding little coves and even castles. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Craange Cottage and would stay there again.

Cottage is clean, comfortable, wellequipped. Well located for many Northumbrian attractions Alnwick gardens, Lindisfarne, Bamborough, to name just 3, and of course, all the stunning beaches. Local village fish and chips recommended!
