“Sea Lily was ideal for us: location, facilities, comfort.”

.. only a minute or so from the A1, yet there was no sound from it at all. 15 minutes to Lindisfarne or up to Berwick, 20.minutes to Bamburgh, 25 minutes down to Alnwick... and 5 minutes to Cheswick Beach: one of the best beaches in the UK, in my opinion. Thanks to Stuart and Gillian for the use of your property: we had a great time!

“Our stay at SeaLily was home from home.”

The cottage was amazing and very clean, everything provided to make your stay enjoyable. The small garden is beautiful too. You can relax and chill out at Sea Lily. It’s a true credit to the owners. This was our second visit and we will be returning. Sue and Neil - May 2024

“We had a wonderful stay at Sea Lily,the minute you arrive you feel at home,bright,warm and cosy.”

Excellent location moments from the A1,but very peaceful,the birdlife in the lovely garden was incredible so many species. Excellent range of TV options,and instant Wi-Fi were great !! Hope to return very soon,to wonderful Northumberland,and Sea Lily. Thank you Gillian Rob,David and Cherryll.

- Robert, April 2024
Gillian February 2024

“Sea Lily is a wonderful property.”

Very cosy, clean and tidy and well-equipped. Even the knives were sharp which is unusual in a holiday cottage! I always take a sharp knife and a decent frying pay with me but the equipment at Sea Lily was excellent. The location is good too - it was easy to visit lots of attractions without too much time spent driving around. We live in Northumberland anyway so we did not have far to travel to the cottage and it provided a perfect base for a nice relaxing week away from home. We would definitely like to return some time.

- Gillian, February 2024
Teresa November 2023

“Such a lovely, cosy & warm cottage.”

The log burner, Netflix & Alexa were all much appreciated, as well as it being dog friendly. And we thought the price was reasonable - so many places are unaffordable nowadays. We’ve had a really lovely few days with our daughter - thank you.

- Teresa, November 2023
Helen October 2023

“Lovely cottage- great location, cosy and warm and well- equipped.”

The cottage was really quiet so we could easily relax. The cottage is close to many beautiful beaches but also close to Berwick so easy access to amenities. We loved the fact that the water in the cottage came from a bore hole so tasted as water should do. The owners were really helpful too. Would highly recommend .

- Helen, October 2023
Stewart October 2023

Comfortable and cosy. Fantastic location for dark skies.

- Stewart, October 2023
Denise September 2023

“Lovely clean cosy little cottage.”

That is well equipped. But would be better not advertised as dog friendly!. Too many restrictions on your little furry friends.

Anne August 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay at the beautiful Sea Lily cottage.”

The location was ideal for visiting many places and the cottage was set in stunning surroundings. We loved the beautiful cottage garden and particularly all the birds coming to eat in the morning. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you.

- Anne, August 2023
Megan August 2023

- Megan, August 2023
David July 2023

“This is a lovely property in a quiet and unspoilt area.”

The property offers all you need for a relaxing break and is ideal for location as places of interest are all close by such as the famous castle and beaches with Berwick a short drive north. We had a great time and we would certainly recommend this property.

We hope to return next year. Most things to visit was within a 30 minute drive, beautiful beaches, village's and plenty of castles Thank-you for our lovely holiday x

Anne April 2023

“The cottage was lovely, and an ideal base in which to explore Northumberland and the Borders.”

There was useful information available, including a list of "do nots" for dogs owners ( not available online) One requested that the dog does not use the garden as a toilet and I completely understand why ( the risk of spreading Toxocariasis) However I had not envisaged having to walk my dog at the beginning and end of each day, along the lane in front of the cottage, in the dark, even with the torch provided). I am aware of the importance of picking up waste and always carry dog poo bags.It was disappointing to find no "Welcome Pack " There are choices of "Free From" items available for guests who have food allergies or intolerances. It is such a lovely thoughtful treat after a long journey. For anyone without a dog the cottage is ideal, but it feels "dog tolerant" at best and not "dog friendly". If the information had been avaliable before booking, I would have made a different choice.

- Anne, April 2023
Richard April 2023

“Beautiful cottage, wonderful location and well equipped with everything that we needed.”

Thanks for fixing the little problem with the heating so quickly. We would highly recommend your cottage to everyone. Many thanks Richard & Anna

“Really nice little house, well away from any noise and bustle.”

Very convenient for access to lindisfarne and other places. Very easy to find from the A1.

Debbie March 2023

“This was another great visit, we love the cottage, facilities and location is perfect.”

The cottage is very comfortable, it's like home from home. My husband especially loves the log fire. I'm sure we'll be visiting again.

- Debbie, March 2023
Edwina March 2023

“Lovely, quiet and comfortable cottage in a rural setting.”

Ideal base for those interested in walking, birdwatching/wildlife.

- Edwina, March 2023
Robert September 2022

“A wonderful place to stay and ideally located.”

Nicely furnished and comfortable beds. Only thing I could really fault was the taps, water tends to go everywhere unless they are only on a tiny bit.

- Robert, September 2022
Brigid June 2022

“Sea Lily is a lovely cottage with fantastic views and a great little garden.”

Situated down a quiet lane but great base to visit all the attractions around.

- Brigid, June 2022
John May 2022

“This was the second time to Sea Lilly cottage.”

It was superb, everything that you need is there, we could find no fault. On the Sykes front this was the second time that we had to contact you prior to our holiday to chase up the information for the key box, every other company that we use for these sorts of holiday this information is emailed to you 24-48 hours before your holiday it should not be the customer to chase up the information

“A beautiful warm and cosy cottage!”

Quiet and in a fabulous location to explore the local area.

Graeme October 2021

“As always we enjoyed our stay (we have been before).”

It's not a Ye Olde world style - but we enjoy the simple comfort of the place. The dishwasher is a big plus. A beautiful location which could not be more convenient to access and to get to local attractions including amazing beaches for the dogs.

- Graeme, October 2021
Debbie October 2021

“I think you should change the description from fridge/freezer to fridge with a small ice-box, saying there is a fridge/freezer is a bit misleading, especially if you arrived with lots of frozen food.”

I only gave 4 stars because we were hoping the TV would be a smart free view one so that we could use various apps to stream more choices of programmes to watch in the cold, dark evenings. Having said that they are minor criticisms and we would be happy to stay there again. We will definitely be making another booking in the future.

- Debbie, October 2021
Kimberley September 2021

“Great cottage, despite looking small from pictures was plenty of space.”

Great views when you wake up. Comfy bed and good shower. Ideal place for exploring northumberland and beyond. We had already read a review about the dog in the garden so we knew to take her down the lane to toilet and used the garden for play. Cows, horses sheep and geese in the fields all made it feel like a real country holiday

- Kimberley, September 2021
Mike September 2021

“Very nice cottage in the country.”

- Mike, September 2021
Samantha August 2021

“As we have come to expect from Northumberland the location was perfect.”

The cottage was lovely, comfortable and well equipped (could do with a fly screen on the patio doors). We had read previous reviews and took bottled water, the supply is from a natural source and is very metallic. Our main criteria when booking is for a pet friendly property with an enclosed garden. We were very disappointed to find a long list of 'dog rules' which included allowing dogs in the garden but not to let them toilet. One of the reasons for having an enclosed garden is to be able to let our dog out freely in the early morning and at night. The owners really need to consider if they want to allow pets as at the moment the property is pet tolerant at best, certainly not pet friendly. We are always very mindful of leaving no trace of our dog being in a property, unfortunately were left feeling uncomfortable and not at all welcome. For that reason we would not book sea lily again.

- Samantha, August 2021

The water supply is from a private bore hole, the water whilst having a mild metallic taste is perfectly safe to drink, we do however provide a water filter for use by visitors. Dogs are perfectly welcome, but we do have a few requests (not rules) of owners and there are reasons for these requests. While dogs are allowed on the garden, we kindly ask owners not to allow their dogs to use the garden as a toilet, dog faeces, even small traces can cause an infection known as Toxocariasis in humans, small children can be particularly vulnerable. We do have a significant number of families with young children staying at Sea Lily and we want them to be able to use the garden safely. With the cottage being adjacent to a farm there are plenty of tracks and country lanes with wide verges where dogs can be walked and toileted safely, the nearest being 50 meters from the main entrance door to the cottage. We are also conscious of other non-dog owner visitors to Sea Lily who may be allergic to dogs. Property Owner
Diane August 2021

“The cottage is quite small but extremely clean and well equipped.”

The bathroom is large with a good shower. There is a range of leaflets and information about the cottage, local restaurants and attractions plus books, games and DVDs. The cottage is very close to many attractions and we had planned to visit many of these. Sadly we were only able to stay for two nights as I tested positive for COVID. The owners very kindly texted to wish me well. I’m sure we’ll be back.

If you like a quiet stay with lots of wildlife but close to A1 would recommend no mains water so good idea to take some bottled

Edward June 2021

“Yes, first-class simple spotless accommodation set in a great area.”

Panoramic views of this unspoiled Northumberland countryside. We had a great stay comfortable in every aspect, NO COMPLAINTS which is a first with me. Keep an eye out for Boris the mad rooster he tried to kick me up the XXXX, great fun watching his antics, a laugh every day.

- Edward, June 2021
Sophie June 2021

“Sea Lily was perfect for us.”

The cottage is very well equipped and had everything we needed. The garden is large and was perfect for our 10 month old large puppy. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed cooking a nice meal every evening. Shower is powerful. Located next to a farm, it was a lovely place to stay. We will certainly look to Book again when we plan to explore Northumberland and the Scottish borders.

- Sophie, June 2021
Graeme October 2020

“Great location - convenient for Northumberland Coast beaches and Cheviots.”

Beautiful views from the cottage. Very peaceful. Great facilities with dishwasher, washing machine and Wi-Fi. Plenty of room in cottage - good area to eat in kitchen area, and good broadband connection. Only complaint is that the main bedroom has a double bed with metal footboard so bed is too short if you are 1.83m (6ft) plus.

- Graeme, October 2020
Kenneth October 2020

“We were quite impressed with the Northumberland area.”

However, we were rather disappointed with the accommodation. We were also surprised to see the bookings were at 9.00am and 4.00pm. Quite often bookings are 10am and 3.00pm. The time to clean the property was rather excessive bearing in mind the next door cleaning was completed by 1.00pm. We were astonished to see no welcome pack to greet us. In the book of instructions the owner admitted this but stated that coffee, tea, sugar etc were provided. There were no such provisions to be found in the property. We tried to open the windows and patio doors which was almost impossible. We did manage to open a couple of them, but after having a struggle to close them again, we opted to keep them shut. There were no extra toilet rolls apart from the one currently in use. The lighting in the lounge was less than suitable for reading. The kettle in the kitchen was in desperate need of descaling. The shower had so little pressure that the water flowing from the head just dribbled on the rim of the bath, missing the victim by a foot or two!

- Kenneth, October 2020

The customer was contacted in advance of their visit and it was clearly explained why the access/exit times to the cottage had been changed to 4pm and 9am. The cleaners do have more work to do with a result of Covid-19 and they have more than one cottage to clean on a Saturday. Owners cannot stipulate to the cleaners exactly what time to clean a specific cottage and in some instances Sea Lily may be cleaned first, in the middle of or last on the cleaner’s busy Saturday schedule. The times are to help the cleaners with what is a busy schedule and ensure they have time to do the extra cleaning required given Covid-19. In the event the cleaning has been done earlier and we are aware of this, then we do contact the new visitors to let them know they can get in earlier. The window and patio doors have been checked and all open and close effectively. There are position locks on the windows when open to prevent them from fully opening and becoming a safety risk of someone falling out, especially the first floor windows. The shower has also been checked and there appears to be no issue with water pressure or flow rate. We did explain why we had stopped providing Welcome packs, which was mainly to do with food intolerances and allergies, but more recently with Covid-19. There was an additional toilet roll in the cupboard under the wash basin. The kettle is usually descaled between visits, the cleaners have been reminded to do this. We will also look to improve the lighting levels in the lounge. Property Owner

“The owner of the property was very helpful, especially before the holiday.”

Information about the cottage was clearly displayed and neatly packaged in a most helpful folder. I would certainly recommend the property to friends and family.

Catharine May 2019

“Myself and my sister really enjoyed the peace and quiet of this cottage holiday.”

We were very comfortable in the cottage itself, and have no complaints. For holiday makers who require pubs, restaurants or shops within walking distance, then this wouldn't be a suitable choice.

Judy April 2019

“Sykes are perfect at making the holiday booking, paying and help seamless.”

Cottage was very nice. All the facilities necessary. Comfortable and in a lovely location. A little disappointed, that in comparison to previous cottages booked through Sykes, there was no milk, bread or other complimentary welcome. Couldn’t find any tea towels ,so fortunate I packed one. Other than that, a thoroughly enjoyable week. Can’t fault Sykes cottages and service.

- Judy, April 2019
Linda March 2019

Maura October 2018

“What a wonderful mid week holiday we have had.”

Sea Lily cottage is lovely in every way. We were as warm and comfy in this cottage as we would of been in our in our own home. Thankfully the weather was brilliant, blue sky and sunshine all the way. Our dog was very happy too! Plenty of clean beautiful beaches for her to run and play very near by. Thankyou again we shall be back.

- Maura, October 2018
Tracey September 2018

“A fantastic location and quite understated in their wording.”

An easy to keep clean place - important when leaving on the last day, but such a lovely hideaway - so quiet and nicely decorated. The dog loved it and so did my Mum. 5 mins from the turn to Holey island and 10 minutes from Berwick - soooo accessible for the coast and away from the bustle. Perfect

Generally well equipped cottage in tranquil but convenient location

- Rachel, August 2018
V July 2018

“Cottage is well situated near the A1 to travel up or down the coast.”

As someone else mentioned, the water is not the best for drinking so we would 'pop' down the road (about 1 mile) to Haggerston Castle holiday park shop and buy containers of water (cheap!). Lots of useful leaflets, etc about places to visit. Good 3 mile walk at St Abbs to clifftop lighthouse.

Zoe February 2018

“This is a gem of a cottage in a quiet area.”

It has everything you need and as a family we had a fantastic break. It was lovely and clean and very cozy when we lit the wood burner. We cooked meals in every night and had everything needed to do so. Its in an ideal location so we could get out and about to see the fantastic countryside , villages and castles. Can't wait to visit again. If booking with children i would suggest buying bottled water. The cottage is on its own supply and our children ( and dog ) wouldn't drink it even with Vimto in.! It was fine when boiled for tea etc

Holy Island 6.8 miles.

This refurbished 19 century former farm cottage is in the middle of six cottages situated in the small hamlet of New Haggerston, where it is next to a working farm.

Holy Island is only 6miles away and the town of Berwick upon Tweed is within easy driving distance of 7 miles away.

Surrounded by fields with views of the Cheviots in one direction and the North Sea in the other, this cottage is set in an excellent location, and is a lovely base from which to enjoy days out in this picturesque area.

Friendly and welcoming, this retreat is perfect for a small family or couples, wanting to enjoy a cosy holiday away from their busy lifestyle. The entrance will lead you into a small porch area, ideal for hanging your coats and leaving your boots upon arrival.

The well equipped kitchen boasts a contemporary image, with splashes of black and silver.

About the location

HOLY ISLAND

Berwick-upon-Tweed 14 miles; Bamburgh 16miles; Seahouses 18 miles

Holy Island is home to Lindisfarne Priory, one of the most important centres of early Christianity in Anglo Saxon England. The monastery was founded in AD 635 by St Aiden, but the island is more famously associated with St Cuthbert whose remains were carried by monks to Durham, and there they still remain. The island is now a popular tourist attraction with many visitors making a pilgrimage to the priory or following in the footsteps of the monks along St Cuthbert’s Way. Situated in the heart of the Heritage Coastline, the exciting journey to Holy Island begins with the essential check of the tides, the island is accessed via a long causeway which is impassable once the tide comes in. There is ample central parking and a short stroll will take you to the priory. The village itself has quaint tea rooms and pubs and a museum detailing the island’s interesting history. Those who enjoy the great outdoors will be delighted with the Northumberland Coastal Path, which runs through Beal just two miles inland and onwards down the Heritage Coast, offering stunning scenery along the way. Holy Island is within easy reach of both St Oswald's Way and St Cuthbert's Way and there are some great birdwatching sites nearby. Northumberland’s beautiful coastline, Alnwick Castle and Gardens, the Cheviots and the fascinating border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, are all only a short drive away. The pretty village of Ford with its castle and craft shops is 13 miles away, part of the Ford and Etal Estate which has facilities for cycling and fishing, as well as a mini railway – ideal for all the family. There are also excellent golfing opportunities, with eight golf courses within 20 miles of Holy Island. A superb base for exploring all that the region has to offer.
