Jill June 2024

“We were very comfortable in the cottage, found it an excellent location and enjoyed sitting out on the patio for an evening drink with a lovely view.”

- Jill, June 2024

Hi Jill. It was lovely meeting you both last week, you brought good weather with you. I am happy that you had a comfortable and relaxing holiday. Please feel free to look us up again, where a big warm Northumberland welcome will be waiting. Kind regards Andrew Property Owner
David June 2024

“The reasons for our ratings are as follows: 1.”

When mentioning to the owner - within a couple of hours of arrival - that the toilet seat was very unstable, nothing was done to rectify it. 2. The cleanliness was poor, made worse by the state of the oven, so much so that we decided not to use it throughout our stay. 3. The general decor is in need of attention and improvement - many examples could be provided. 4. The furniture is very dated, although that is not necessarily a negative. 5. It is more likely that "older" guests will rent the property, as it is only suitable for two persons. It should be pointed out that the shower is tricky to access within the bath, being a) a high bath panel, and b) the proximity of the wash hand basin. We suggest that Sykes looks at this situation. 6. We suggest you look at the glass in the patio door windows - the double glazing needs replacement.

- David, June 2024

Hello David Thank you for taking the time to review Holly cottage. We really value you comments and suggestions. It is regrettable that it was not mentioned to us, that you felt the level of cleanliness was not up to your standards, as we would have been only too happy to come with cleaners and rectify the situation immediately . At Holly cottage we aim to offer a traditional experience, with original features of an early 1800s built farm house . We choose to use local and relevant art work and furniture/ furnishings that is in keeping with the period, which seems to be recieved very well with many. We do make sure that the property is very comfortable and clean with all possible facility's available. Holly cottage is a cosy and friendly, tranquil, property with a good size bathroom,with over bath shower offering both ,bath or shower for your convenience, it isn't a wet room . Again many thanks . Best wishes Andrew Property Owner

“Fantastic location and lovely comfortable cottage.”

We had a great week. It was nice to come “home” after a day out and sit outside in the sun with a cuppa and watch the cows munching in the field. Thank you Andrew for the wine and the apples - they were delicious.

Jeffrey March 2023

“We enjoyed our stay but feel the property does need some basic maintenance.”

(sealant around bath, front door lock ect.) That said we did appreciated the comfortable bed, constant hot water and quiet surroundings. Real shame the holidaymakers Reviews have not been acted on by Andrew the owner. The multitude of appeals for a Guest Book, instructions for the appliances ect. would in our opinion make the experience more enjoyable. Beautiful part of the UK though. .

- Jeffrey, March 2023

Dear Jeffrey Thank you for staying with us in Holly cottage. We are glad you had a good stay with us and would welcome you back any time. I also thank you for your very valuable feedback, which always helps us to improve the experience. We have now put back the guest books back in the cottage after the covid restrictions and also introduced a maintenance book for guests to use for any issues they may encounter ,that will be checked weekly and addressed. We have also carried out works and improvements as per your recommendations, and for that we truly thank you. We do hope to see you again in the very near future. All the best Andrew Property Owner
D March 2023

“Owner very helpful.”

Excellent comfortable bed. Loved the pitch black nights and no traffic noise. Must be paradise here in the summer months.

- D, March 2023

Hello Glad you enjoyed the peace and quiet in Holly cottage and the surrounding area. The summer sky's in Northumberland are truly amazing where you can even witness the northern lights from close by in Howick. Hope to see you again soon. All the best Andrew Property Owner
Maureen December 2022

“Holly Cottage is a perfect little getaway to unwind and relax.”

We were away over Christmas and on our arrival the host had left us a bottle of wine and mince pies. There was a Christmas tree all lit up and lots of little Christmas decorations in the cottage. Views were lovely too. Some beautiful places to visit fairly locally. The host also checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. We will definitely be booking Holly Cottage again. Thank you Andrew.

- Maureen, December 2022

Hello Maureen. Thank you for staying with us at Holly cottage for the festive season. It's always a special time and feel ,enjoying the festivities Town has to offer. We always strive to make your stays as comfortable and homely as possible . Would love to see you again very soon. All the best. Andrew Property Owner
Andrew July 2022

“Great location and quiet property despite being on an active farm.”

Andrew, the owner greeted us soon after arrival and made sure we settled in. Area was great for evening walks along the river or restored railway line with a lot of wildlife around.

- Andrew, July 2022

Hello Andrew So good to hear you enjoyed your stay at Holly cottage and enjoyed what the area has to offer. There is alot more to see and do in Northumberland and you would most welcome to return for more . Many thanks Andrew Property Owner
Chris July 2022

“We had a really lovely stay.”

Andrew and his family were so friendly and welcoming we can't thank them enough for our stay. We had a super relaxing stay it was nice to wake up to such an amazing view every morning and to be greeted by the cows in the field. The place was really clean and had everything we needed so no complaints. Bed was comfy, shower was good, TV worked fine, free parking just outside, the kitchen and appliances were easy to use and even on the super hot days we stayed there it never felt too hot inside which I thought was good. And it's in a good location too not too far from neighbouring villages and close to the seaside. Andrew went above and beyond on a couple of occasions and even gave us a lift into the village. Also loved meeting his little dog Honey. We will definitely be staying here again next time we are in Northumberland it suited us perfectly. Thanks ever so much for having us and hope to see you again soon!

- Chris, July 2022

Dear Chris. Thank you so much for you lovely feedback. I am so very glad you had a great time staying at Holly cottage and exploring the lovely areas around us in all its glory. We do hope see you again soon. Thanks again Andrew Property Owner
Andrew July 2022

“Cosy cottage in a wonderful rural setting with great views and lovely walks.”

Ideally situated for visiting the castles, villages and beaches along the beautiful coastline and close to the historic town of Alnwick with its amazing castle. We highly recommend Holly Cottage.

- Andrew, July 2022

Hello Andrew Thank you for staying with us at Holly cottage. We always try to make your stay pleasant one. And yes we are truly blessed with our location in beautiful Northumberland. I am glad you enjoyed all nature and attractions around. Hope to see you again. Regards Andrew Property Owner
John June 2022

“Quiet property with great views (and sunsets).”

Located just outside Alnwick with good road connections to other towns and historic sites. A better sign on the entrance would confirm that you have found the property. Lack of a teapot was a surprise (or we didn't find it). Enjoyed our stay.

- John, June 2022

Dear John thank you for staying with us. I am glad you found the property agreeable . Thank you for your feedback a means a great deal to us going forward. Regards Andrew Property Owner
Jane May 2022

“Cottage is lovely and cosy, really well equipped.”

Great location, so handy for Alnwick town centre, Bamburgh, Holy Island, Seahouses (for boat trips to Farne Islands) Alnmouth - with carpark just a short easy climb down to fabulous beach. The cottage position is really peaceful, and the views over the fields and hills are great. We enjoyed waking up in the morning and seeing cows and their calves over the fence. We had a fabulous week in the cottage. If going into Alnwick TC, there are several long stay car parks which are free! ( Greenwell Road, B, C and E, Dispensary street, Roxburgh place. We managed to get into Greenwell rd on the Sunday, and Dispensary street during the week when we visited the castle and the gardens. Short stay carparks use a disc payment £1, which are bought from various retailers or pubs, info is on the internet.

- Jane, May 2022

Hello Jane. very good to hear you had a good stay with us and an amazing week exploring the gorgeous northumbria coastline and towns. Thanks again. Best wishes Andrew Property Owner
Robert March 2022

“Good location friendly owner Kitchen could do with a little more storage and a few hooks for tea towel and hand towel.”

Otherwise very good would book again when I visit Northumberland.

- Robert, March 2022

Hello Robert. Thank you for stopping with us , it was great to meet you. Feedback noted and appropriated and fully addressed. I thank you again and hope to see you again soon. All the best. Andrew Property Owner
Nigel March 2022

“Very convenient location for A1 and access to coast and inland.”

Quiet, which we liked, good parking space, just right for a couple. We deceided to come home early as we both tested positive for Covid, so informede the owner, allowed more time for sanitizing before next letting and it was poibntless staying when my wife in particular felt quite ill. We must come back as we were very disppointed to come home on a glorious sunny day. This is perhaps not all suitable for publicizing, but i am happf for you to select what you wish to use

- Nigel, March 2022

Hi nigel Thank you both for choosing Holly cottage for your break. I was sad and disappointed that you had to cut your holiday short ,but do hope that you both are well and over it. Please do feel free to visit us again and hopefully have a great time this time around. All the best Andrew Property Owner
Philip March 2022

“Having read Syke's information and reviews, we were disappointed with this cottage.”

Apart from the bathroom, in our view there appeared to have been no investment in the property for some years. The main room was poorly lit, there was a lot of dust in the harder to reach areas eg behind and on top of furniture, curtains etc. The only contact we had with the owner who lived next door was when we phoned him about a drain problem. The shower was in the bath, there were no grab handles, making access very difficulty for a person with the slightest mobility issues. Location good, Internet and mobile reception good. We cannot see how this property justifies a 4 tick rating "Excellent standard throughout".

- Philip, March 2022

Dear Philip Thank you for staying with us in Holly cottage. We do value your feedback a great deal. Haven't observed your comments, we have now implemented various improvements to the property . We have also addressed maintenance methods going forward. We would welcome you back at Holly cottage where we hope you would enjoy your stay. All the best Andrew Property Owner
Tony August 2021

“Comfortable and well equipped cottage in a rural location but within walking distance of Alnwick and ideally situated for exploring the coastal area by car or bus.”

Very friendly and helpful owners ensured that our stay was an enjoyable one.

- Tony, August 2021

Hi Tony Thank you for staying with us. I am happy that all your needs were met and you enjoyed the locality. See you again I hope. Regards Andrew Property Owner
Roger July 2021

“Holly Cottage provides ideal accommodation for 2 people and was very quiet and comfortable.”

Located just outside Alnwick it's an ideal base from which to explore the Northumbrian coast and we would have no hesitation in recommending it.

- Roger, July 2021

Hi Roger Thank you for staying with us at Holly cottage. Happy you found all convenient and good for you break. Hope to see you again. Andrew Property Owner

- Ann, June 2021

Hi Ann Thank you for staying with us. Glad you found facility convenient for your needs. Regards Andrew Property Owner
Dave June 2021

“Holly Cottage is ideally placed to explore the beauty of North Northumberland.”

The cottage is well equipped and furnished. The owner, Andrew is very friendly and helpful, despite him being extremely busy running his 3 farms. The only slight criticism is the lack of any instructions for the various appliances. However most things are straightforward, we didn't use the washing machine, and with Andrew's help we sorted out how the living room heater worked. For any future visitors the switches that control the heat settings are on the right hand side of the heater near the bottom. The bottle of wine on our arrival and the fresh eggs were much appreciated.

- Dave, June 2021

Dear dave Thank you for your kind words. I am glad you had a good stay with us. We are always on hand and are happy to help in any way I can to make your stay a good and memorable one. Thank you for all your feedback, much appreciated. Best wishes Andrew Property Owner
Lynn May 2021

“Cottage was exactly as advertised.”

Location was perfect. All the main places were in easy reach without being too far. We enjoyed watching the wildlife from outside the cottage and the inquisitive hens. A perfect place to explore the coast from. Andrew was very knowledgeable and friendly too.

- Lynn, May 2021

Hi Lynn Thank you for choosing Holly Cottage for your stay. I am happy to know that you found it all comfortable and convenient for your break. Thanks again. Andrew Property Owner

Chris September 2020

“We did not know what to expect due to Covid restrictions being in force, Sykes website advised us of considerations to take bedding/pillows, food, extra cleaning products etc.”

We found this advice helpful. The cottage is situated on a working farm with this causing no issues whatsoever and was interesting to see the harvesting, feeding of cows etc. The cottage is easily accessible to nearby locations and shops, excellent hilly bike rides and walks with Alnwick Gardens and Alnmouth Beach a must to visit. Host left the ploughing of his field to greet us and was very helpful and friendly, we mentioned to him in passing a couple of light bulbs had gone he straight away removed/replaced them. Host did advise due to Covid a number of home comforts such as throws in the living room had had to be removed. Although an electric heater in the living room is fitted we would suggest you take a couple of your own throws as later in the evening the living area became a little chilly around your feet/legs. We would like to mention Carlos excellent fish and chip shop located within the town; and also Lilburn's Restaurant Paikes Lane NE66 1HX - we would suggest you contact the restaurant to make a reservation as again due to Covid they become full quickly. The food is excellent and the ambience in the restaurant has been maintained with very helpful and friendly staff and their control and cleanliness during Covid restrictions being undertaken in a most considerate manner. The only suggestion we could make would be a storage area be made available at the cottage to store/secure bikes safely. Overall a very enjoyable stay in a beautiful part of the Country.

Hi Chris Thank you for you stsy with us and information feedback, always useful for us and guest alike. Comments noted and addressed since. All the best Andrew Property Owner

Peter September 2019

“Was not made clear that heating was controlled from adjacent farmhouse where owners lived, so had to rely on times programmed in by owners, although we had fantastic weather so didn’t need the heating that much but in colder weather guests may want to select the heating at their needs, there was an electric fire in the lounge area.”

There wasn’t any instruction booklets on how to use appliances such as cooker, washing machine, microwave etc ( I suppose they are self explanatory but some people might not know). The property was a little cobwebby in places but otherwise clean and tidy. There wasn’t any instructions on where to leave refuse and recycling for collection. Overall though we had a fantastic week and were pleased with the property in a great location and these points didn’t in any way detract from our enjoyment of the holiday, they are just observations.

- Peter, September 2019

Hi there Thank you for staying at Holly cottage. We are glad you had a good stay and a relaxing holiday. We would like to thank you for your observations and feedback and assure you of our upmost sincere thanks for information relied, which has all been addressed.

About the location

ALNWICK

Alnmouth 4 miles; Bamburgh 15 miles; Rothbury 10 miles.

The attractive and historic market town of Alnwick is dominated by Alnwick Castle, home to the Duke of Northumberland. The Castle Gardens, opened in 2002, are home to Europe's largest cascading water feature, a fabulous (and enormous) treehouse, a delightful rose garden and a beautiful, walled ornamental garden, which will delight novice and experienced gardeners alike. The castle is also famous as the setting for Hogwarts School featured in the Harry Potter films! The town's narrow streets have seen little change since the days when the London to Edinburgh stage coach passed through and the Market Place, with its stone cross, is still the central feature and the ideal venue for the weekly Saturday market. Alnwick offers a good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat and there is plenty to see and do, with miles of golden sandy beaches, numerous castles and boat trips to the famous Farne Islands all available nearby. Altogether a superb location for exploring Northumberland and its stunning Heritage Coastline.

Note: There is no car charging allowed at the property.
