“We had a lovely week away in 2 bay view, the view from the kitchen window was fabulous, loved our daily walk along the pier and seafront and we were lucky enough to see the dolphins most mornings.”

The accommodation was lovely and comfortable, will definitely be back

“A small but comfortable cottage perfect for 2 adults and 2 children.”

Well-equipped, very clean and comfortable beds. Small sunny garden perfect to eat in evening, if weather is good. Small bay across the bay is perfect for children, paddle boarding, canoeing. Views from kitchen window are lovely especially in the early morning . Had lovely week and would love to return.

Just needs a little TLC. Garden definitely needs maintenance. Beautiful views though.

Christine May 2024

“We have stayed here a number of times.”

There is a lovely view of the Little Shore from the breakfast bar and the double bedroom and with the provided binoculars you can see across the bay to Alnmouth and Boulmer. On arrival the cottage is always clean and tidy, beds are very comfortable and the shower is great. The bottle of wine and biscuits are a lovely gesture. I have already booked for next year.

If you are looking for a new modern home this is not for you but if you want somewhere that is beautifully clean extremely warm and comfortable with perfect views and good parking very close to all amenities that amble has to offer then i would highly recommend it this is the most perfect place to spend your holiday

Linda April 2024

“Bag view cottage was in a perfect location with such a good view from the kitchen window.”

Out dog loved it you just need to walk over the road snd she could come off her lead to run on either the big green,sand dunes and beach. The cottage was clean and comfortable and it was nice to relax there after a good walk or day out. We hope to go back later in the year.

- Linda, April 2024
Paul April 2024

“The overall impression of Bay View was that it was in need of redecoration.”

This is due to cottage looking and feeling tired. Bedroom curtains needed renewing, boiler had leaks, TV was old and needs replacing. The best room was the bathroom, that is now a proper walk in shower. But floor edging, under door, needs finishing off to make it safe.

- Paul, April 2024
Norman February 2024

“The location makes this cottage.”

A peaceful place to recharge your batteries and enjoy the wonderful Northumberland coast. The cottage itself deserves some tlc both inside and out.

- Norman, February 2024
Gayle February 2024

“Another lovely stay a 2 bay view.”

I perfect location for watching the huge tides this weekend. Close to town with shops and bars. Lovely log burner for the evenings.

- Gayle, February 2024
Heidi January 2024

“Excellent location, loved that the French doors open up to the lovely garden area.”

Lovely welcome pack. Beds were super comfy. Personal preference is a bath, photos showed a bath but it was a walk in shower. A very high standard of walk in shower so it was fine. Sykes need to update the pictures

- Heidi, January 2024
Lyndon January 2024

“Absolutely loved the property and location.”

In fact we are now seriously considering relocating to the area in the near future.

- Lyndon, January 2024
Paul January 2024

“All that it said in the description Lovely breakfast bar looking out over the bay just across the road.”

Good communication from owner and very helpful

- Paul, January 2024
Melanie December 2023

“Outstanding view.”

Easy to park. Great restaurants within walking distance. Good communication from host. Stairs are very creaky and a dishwasher would be a welcome addition. We have booked to come again.

- Melanie, December 2023
Barbara October 2023

“Our stay at Bay View was very enjoyable.”

It was spotlessly clean and quite well equipped. I was very disappointed that the bed linen had not been ironed, I have never experienced this before in any holiday rental. The settees need updating they were not comfortable. In spite of the wonderful views we would not stay there again

- Barbara, October 2023
Jo August 2023

“Cottage was very well situated and very handy for shops and cafes/restaurants.”

Great place for my morning walk with the dog around the harbour, up to the Boat Club and back! The bed was firm which we liked. Kitchen really well stocked with practically everything you need. Lovely new shower room which was amazing! Decent sized garden for the dog too! I would recommend!

- Jo, August 2023

Susan July 2023

“We enjoyed our stay in this cosy, comfy cottage which has great views over the bay.”

Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed on the beach May to September but there are fabulous dog-friendly beaches at Warkworth (1.5 miles away), Druridge Country Park and Alnmouth. The cottage is minutes from the harbour and all its amenities. Would definitely recommend.

- Susan, July 2023
Gina July 2023

“We had a lovely time at the cottage & the view is gorgeous.”

I enjoyed sitting in the back garden in the sunshine too. Beds were very comfortable, shower lovely & modern & the kitchen had everything you needed. Sofas were a bit uncomfortable but we only used them to watch tv at night. Amble is a lovely little place with everything you need & there are some lovely beaches a short distance away. We would definitely return to this cottage & would recommend

- Gina, July 2023
Valerie June 2023

“This was our fourth holiday at 2 Bay View, it is like s second home.”

We love the cottage, the setting right beside the bay and the surrounding area.

It says car parking for 2 cars there is not we where lucky for the time of year in summer holidays probably not Apart from that the cottage was beautiful with stunning views from kitchen window

- Steven, June 2023
Craig May 2023

“Brilliant location.”

Brilliant shower. Nice garden Could be made even better. Probably needs 2 new sofas.slept really well. Brilliant walks on door step. Kitchen Probably needs updates. But would stay again just because of location and views.

- Craig, May 2023
Nuala April 2023

“It was our second visit so we knew what to expect The house was just as welcoming as before It was clean and lovely and warm with a nice welcome pack from the owner The bathroom had been upgraded which was very nicely done It had changed from a bath to a lovely walk in shower which was much more user friendly The overall look of the bathroom with floor to ceiling tiles and new utility sink and toilet made such a difference We didn’t use the log fire on this stay as the weather was warmer but we did make use of the outside table and chairs it was a lovely sun trap for relaxing and listening to the birds singing The view from the kitchen window is outstanding The house is in a perfect location with everything on your doorstep.”

The beach, the town, shops,restaurants,great walks and a good bus service We parked the car on arrival on Friday and didn’t use it again until the following Wednesday to travel further afield A truly great holiday

- Nuala, April 2023
Norman March 2023

“The situation is what makes this cottage a fabulous place to stay.”

Quiet and peaceful with views over the harbour and beyond to rest your gaze on.

- Norman, March 2023
Elaine January 2023

“Lovely warm cosy cottage with wonderful views from the kitchen window had a lovely week, such friendly people in Amble too.”

Can I just recommend that Sykes ask owners to make up all the beds as sometimes elderly couples like us with medical issues don’t necessarily sleep together, in this instance we had to.I’ve seen this subject raised before.

- Elaine, January 2023
Michelle December 2022

“It was a superb cottage and excellent location.”

I would definitely recommend this property and can not wait to visit again soon.

- Michelle, December 2022

- Deborah, December 2022
Karen December 2022

“Ideal location, excellent communication from the property owner.”

Nice touches, for a comfortable stay including a welcome pack consisting of a nice bottle of wine and pack of biscuits. Having the use of a log fire was an added bonus too as we stayed during a cold spell. Overall we really enjoyed our stay

- Karen, December 2022
Nuala December 2022

Ruth June 2022

“Lovely clean and cosy little house in a fantastic position.”

All basic kitchen crockery & utensils supplied and more! The log fire looks so inviting ready to go with everything provide, we’re a bit disappointed that it was too warm during our stay to take full advantage of it

- Ruth, June 2022
Janine May 2022

“Second visit to Bay View.”

Great property with lovely view and cozy too - dog friendly and everything you need with ready access to everything Amble has to offer.

- Janine, May 2022

- Ruth, May 2022
Ali April 2022

“We had a fantastic stay at 2 Bay View.”

Beautiful location, spotlessly clean and friendly neighbours. Amble is a lovely village on the harbour with great restaurants and walks. Thank you so much for such a peaceful holiday. We will definitely be back. Ali

- Ali, April 2022
Susan February 2022

“The property was warm and cosy and in a brilliant location.”

Plenty of kitchen equipment for anyone who wants to cook. The owner left kindle and wood to start the fire and wine and chocolate biscuits which were a nice touch . We will revisit in the future .

- Susan, February 2022
Sally February 2022

“We arrived in the midst of Storm Eunice so we’re pleased that it was lovely and warm and we could park outside.”

It’s in a fab location with sea views. The cottage was spotlessly clean, yes there were a few squeaky floorboards but that didn’t bother us. The owner had left enough wood for the log burner, we had to buy matches to light it. The only thing missing was a hairdryer. We also wasn’t keen on the rug in the living room as it was difficult to clean, other than that it was perfect and we will definitely rebook to visit again.

- Sally, February 2022
Carol February 2022

“Lovely week in this cosy comfortable and clean cottage.”

- Carol, February 2022
Dianne December 2021

“2 Bay view is a real home from home.”

We had an excellent stay here. The view from the cottage is the real selling point. Yes it could do with a little updating but it is spotlessly clean and so comfortable. Had the best sleep. We would not hesitate to book again ( and we will)

- Dianne, December 2021
Ron December 2021

“Bay View Cottage was warm and comfortable and its location was ideal for visiting the surrounding area and for walks along the Northumberland coastline.”

The view from the window over Amble Bay was lovely and we are sure that in the summer months there would be plenty of activity in the bay with regards to sailing boats etc. Parking is available right outside the door of the cottage and the local convenience store is only a few hundred yards away.

- Ron, December 2021
Sheila November 2021

“Simply 100 per cent pleased with the booking.”

- Sheila, November 2021
Adrian November 2021

Fabulous well equipped cottage, warm and cosy, everything you need is provided and the best location with gorgeous views. We'll be back!

- Adrian, November 2021
Josephine October 2021

“Lovely homely property, owner contacted us beforehand and was lovely, nice little welcome pack upon arrival, only minor complaints, VERY creaky Floorboards so woke the kids a few times at night, remote for TV didn't work properly and the fridge under counter very noisy buzzing noise, but again all minor and certainly didn't take away from our time!”

Really enjoyed this little home, more so than our own home!

- Josephine, October 2021
Patricia September 2021

“Ideal setting.”

Amble has a lovely vibe with great walks around. Warkworth is also a lovely village with a great beach. We travelled the whole of the Northumberland coastal route visiting castles right up to Berwick on Tweed and Lindisfarne. Travelled across to Kielder Dam and Forest. Enjoyed all of the holiday.

- Patricia, September 2021
David September 2021

“Lovely cosy terraced cottage in an excellent location.”

Wonderful base from which to explore the brilliant Northumberland coast. Extremely dog friendly (both the cottage and the local area) and all the amenities you need close by.

- David, September 2021
John August 2021

“Comfortable and cosy cottage; nicely clean on arrival and with milk / teabags / biscuits / wine welcome package which we enjoyed.”

Cottage is slightly dated but well-equipped and a good space to be able to live in for the week. The owner was very helpful and accessible (not that we had any issues). The location is great - the kitchen overlooks the beach and entrance to Amble harbour. Parking is easy (outside the house or along the adjacent street) and the area sociable. A funfair was running for a few days opposite, on the green, but was neither particularly noisy nor a problem. The cottage is a great base for walks to the dunes (south) or Warkworth (north, not quite an hour) and for days out to Berwick (walk round the walls, nice lunch), Cragside House (NT property, excellent day out) and Hexham (to visit Housesreads Roman museum). There are plenty of accessible minisupermarkets withoin 10 minutes walk (Co-op, Tesco) and a big Morrisons 5 minutes drive away (on the link road by-passing Amble) where you can also get fuel. Wifi signal is strong (better than ours at home!) and lounge a comfortable living area. Was good value - we enjoyed our stay!

- John, August 2021
Susan June 2021

“Our only concern was the shower panel ,when you showered the water ran under the panel ,you had to make sure you rolled a towel on the floor.”

But apart from that we had a beautiful stay and its in a great location.

- Susan, June 2021
Janine May 2021

“Bay View was a clean and cozy cottage.”

Welcome pack left by owner, and helpful tips on places to visit. Great view from window, perfect for people watching and Amble is a good base to visit the beautiful Northumberland scenery.

- Janine, May 2021
E May 2021

“Ideal holiday cottage in a lovely fishing village,beautiful view from breakfast bar and an ideal location for discovering Northumberland.”

Pity about the weather but the good news is that we will be back again this summer.

- E, May 2021
Lynn April 2021

“Lovely holiday home, light, spacious and comfortable beds.”

Ideal base for walking to beach 2mins, into town 10mins or driving up the lovely coastline. Nice & clean and everything there to make your stay a delight. Wood burner (we didn't use) and logs would make a nice cosy evening. Weather was good on the whole so we were out and about. Definately go again.

- Lynn, April 2021
Rebecca October 2020

“Cozy little cottage with lovely views.”

Great base for Northumberland coast, Cheviots and Simonside hills. Helpful owner and everything spotless on arrival.

- Rebecca, October 2020
H October 2020

“We found the cottage to be spotlessly clean, comfortable, toasty warm and very well equipped.”

The cottage is in a fantastic location, lovely views to pier from the breakfast bar, very close to the harbour and the town centre but still in a quiet location. Tim the owner was very helpful and phoned us the day before we travelled to let us know about key collection and also to give us useful information about some places to visit. Would definately stay here again and would recommend to friends and family.

- H, October 2020
Moira July 2020

“In the middle of a Covid pandemic we expected the property to be spotless.”

We had already been to stay in Lythem St.Annes for a short break and that had been Covid secure with cushions that could not be washed removed.The first thing we saw was a tatty old throw on one of the sofas it should not have been there. We had brought food and we lifted out 2 dinner plates which both had dried food on.Luckily we had brought a picnic basket so could use those plates. The fire was thick with dust and there were many dusty old ornamnts We had brought lots of cleaning products so I spent several hours cleaning all the surfaces and decided we would not use any of their impliments and took our food home. The bathroom had a clean toilet and wash basin but the tiles were very dirty and had not been cleaned once again there were dirty dusty ornaments. In the garden there was lots of rubbish at the side of the shed . When we went into Amble every where we went cafes restaurants were covid sucure . I do not have a smart phone so could not take photographs. We shower every day but could not stand to use it and on Wednesday night we decided to leave could not cope with the dirty place any more. I think in a time of a deadly pandemic you need to check your properties to ensure this does not happen to any one else.

- Moira, July 2020
Susan February 2020

“This is our third visit to this property and have enjoyed just as much as before.”

Comfy cottage with brilliant sea view, a beach on the doorstep very handy for walking the dog first thing and last thing at night, nice and warm with the log burner, the shower could do with replacing though as it wasnt very good,

- Jacqueline, January 2020
Joanne January 2020

“Had a great (sunny!”

) winter break here with my dog. Easy to find, parking right outside. Little treats on arrival including tea & milk for a cuppa! Comfortable, cosy and clean. Heating easy to use. Fabulous seaview from the very well equipped kitchen. Gardens secure, enclosed and dog proof! Lots of walkies from the front door with beaches, castles and plenty of wildlife. Amble is a charming little place. Very dog (& people!) friendly with plenty to explore. I must admit on arrival I was a bit underwelmed but totally converted after our first walkies along the pier into the harbour. Absolutely no complaints. I don't normally consider return visits, as there are so many lovely cottages on Sykes to try, but if I did I would definitely come back here.

- Joanne, January 2020
Adrian November 2019

Everything you need for a lovely week in this lovely town.

Anthony October 2019

“Location was amazing but the house was tired and grubby , needs a full refurb , bedroom curtains offered no block to street lights so had very little sleep ,leaking gutter dripping onto plastic air vent guard was very annoying, bedroom smelt damp due to a leaking radiator so the carpet and curtain were both wet , not very pleasant .”

However the owner got this fixed immediately but the smell remained. Would love to stay in amble again but not at this property

The views from the front windows are fantastic and despite a cold wind blowing most of the week the cottage was lovely and warm at all times - and we didn't have to use the wood burner

Sheila June 2019

“The cottage is in a very good location with lovely views over the river mouth and out to sea.”

Nice to sit outside the cottage in the late afternoon and early evening watching the world go by and chatting to passers by. Amble really does deserve the label as the friendliest port. The cottage is well appointed with all mod cons and perfectly placed for walks along the river or coast also very handy for some very good local restaurants.

- Sheila, June 2019
Helen June 2019

“This cottage is in the perfect location and ideal for holiday with dogs.”

Has great view over harbour. Minutes from shops and restaurants. Good base to explore coast with amazing walks and beaches. Very friendly location. Highly recommend

It’s very convenient for shops pubs and some excellent eating places!!!! It’s a good base to visit the Northumberland coast line and countryside! Would definitely recommend it, and hope to return

- Catherine, May 2019
Gary April 2019

“The cottage was cosy, comfortable and lovely and peaceful.”

It was in an absolutely ideal location for walking the dogs and for getting round the town and harbour area. Amble is very dog-friendly everywhere - dogs are actively welcomed, not just tolerated, and there are several beaches within just a few minutes walk or drive - Druridge bay and Cresswell especially recommended.

- Gary, April 2019
Jason April 2019

“Perfect little cottage!”

Tim (the owner) was very helpful! Made it very easy.

Linda March 2019

“2 bay view is an ideal property if you are holidaying with a dog.”

It is situated right on the beach at Amble, with a fantastic beach at warkworth and a country park just along the coast. It has a secure patio garden. The property had everything we needed for our stay, it was cosy and comfortable. The only downside was the squeaky floorboards on the staircase and on the first floor. They really need to be sorted!

- Linda, March 2019
Ian March 2019

“The accomodation was great, very clean and well equipped.”

Location was great with a shop 5 minutes walk away and the sea literally on your door step. Would definitely consider staying again.

- Ian, March 2019
Julie March 2019

“Lovely cosy cottage with lovely views of the sea.”

There was everything provided for a stress free stay and amble is a great place for food and places to visit . Would recommend this cottage and a visit to walkworth for its castle beach and river walk

- Julie, March 2019
Susan February 2019

“This was our 2nd visit to 2 Bay View, and our umpteenth holiday booked through Sykes, both of which added to a great break away.”

We will definitely be back to this lovely property with fab views in the lovely Amble, and we will definitely be booking more holidays with Sykes. The property is clean and comfortable with fab homely touches, the welcome pack of wine, biscuits and milk was much appreciated. There is loads to do around Amble and local coastal areas especially walks with the dog, and we are very grateful that properties allow our faithful friend to accompany us. We love to go in the colder months and take advantage of the cosy log burner.

- Susan, February 2019
Norman February 2019

“The location of this cottage is excellent.”

The ability to have your breakfast whilst looking out over the harbour and beyond was very relaxing. The cottage itself was comfortable and fairly well equipped. Some of the equipment however could do with updating/replacement such as the kettle which leaked when pouring, some pans with worn non-stick coating, the laminate flooring which was split in the kitchen area and the washing machine with worn bearings was very noisy. Overall some care and attention to detail required.

- Norman, February 2019
Liz January 2019

“The view is marvellous.”

The cottage is coz y and welcoming and very comfortable. We had a very relaxing stay and will definitely book again. The gardens lovely even in winter. There's plenty to see around the area but it was lovely just to relax in comfort.

- Liz, January 2019

David November 2018

“We have visited Amble several times.”

This is the best cottage we have stayed in due to the fantastic view. The facilities were spot on. A welcome bottle of wine and buns. The log burner was easy to use. 10 yards from the beach that our dog Charlie loved. Secure back yard. Everything spotless and it was well equipped. Washing machine and drier if required. Comfy beds and great shower. We would definitely book again.

- Katie, July 2018
Cameron May 2018

“Description on website overstated facilities, although clean and reasonably comfortable did not meet what we expected from description.”

Hot water system was inconsistent, sometimes boiling others times just warm. Lounge could have done with side tables.

- Cameron, May 2018

Thank you so much for letting us know your comments regarding your recent visit to 2 Bay View. Following your feedback, we have now checked the hot water system which is running with no problems and we have added some side tables to the lounge as per your recommendation. Property Owner
Raymond April 2018

“The small garden was unkempt and garden furniture was filthy and covered in bird mess and not just a week or twos worth!”

! It was also very shabby. The frying pans were in a dirty condition.

- Raymond, April 2018

Thank you for your feedback following your holiday at 2 Bay View. We have now taken the decision to remove the bird feeders from the garden. Although it will be sad to see a decrease in the birds, hopefully this will help to keep the furniture in a better condition for our guests. We will also be maintaining the garden every month moving forward. Thank you again for your comments and enabling us to improve our standards. Property Owner

- Eileen, March 2018
Susan March 2018

“Absolutely loved this cosy, clean comfortable home with a view, we didn't want to leave.”

The dog loved the beach and green to chase her ball on straight across the road, however beach doesn't allow dogs May to September. We loved the proximity to delicious fish and seafood. The view was fantastic whether a nice day or not as on the last two days when the wind got a bit wild it was fascinating watching the waves crashing over the pier. Cottage has lovely nautical touches in every room. we will definately go back.

- Susan, March 2018

Esther October 2017

“We had a wonderful time.”

The cottage was clean, cosy and comfortable. Owner was easy to contact and most helpful. Situation perfect. We booked it because we had a dog, who sadly died 2 weeks before the holiday, but the cottage is ideally situated with grass and beach on your doorstep and a safe courtyard at the back. Coop supermarket just up the road. We hope to visit again.

- Esther, October 2017
Pam June 2017

“The cottage was in a beautiful location just a step from the sea.”

It had everything we needed for our stay, including a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated. It was clean, warm and very comfortable. After a day walking on the stunning Northumberland beaches, we slept to the sound of the waves crashing onto the wooden jetty just across the bay. Heaven!

- Pam, June 2017
Lesley March 2017

“Nice cosy wee house just across the road from the shore with a welcome pack on arrival even though we were only there for 3 nights.”

Amble is quaint and charming and very friendly. We were just a few minutes walk from the shops, pubs, restaurants and takeaways. A great base for exploring the coast or just chilling in Amble. I'm pretty sure we will return.

- Lesley, March 2017
Julie February 2017

“What a fabulous little cottage, as with all the other comments, it was a real home from home.”

It was very well equipped, the location is amazing and what a lovely town Amble is. The people are very friendly as well. We made very good use of the log burner and spent ages watching the world go by looking out of the window straight on to the bay. An excellent location for amazing restaurants, pubs and local shops. The main town is about ten minutes walk away. This was our first visit to Northumberland and definitely will not be our last.

“We took our two dogs to a lovely cottage in Amble, Northumberland.”

The cottage was in a great location, overlooking the beach, and was well equipped.. We were surprised to find this level of cleanliness in a dog friendly cottage, unlike some other companies we have used in the past. We enjoyed visiting local places, and our dogs loved the Northumberland beaches. My husband and I enjoyed sitting by the open fire every evening., especially with a glass of wine. This year we have booked another Sykes cottage for a week (in July) to visit the Peak District.

“The view from the window was superb and we sat at the breakfast bar watching the boats go by.”

The safe beach was a stone's throw from the house, as was a big grassy area - both ideal for the kids and dog to play. The enclosed patio was perfect - a sun trap, safe for the dog, and a little haven for tiny birds who came to the bird table to feed. The welcome pack was much appreciated, as was the helpfulness of the owners with any questions we had in advance. Locally, Amble Links Beach was superb as was seeing seals, puffins and terns on the Puffin Cruise from the harbour. A great holiday.

- Ruth, July 2014

The kitchen in this Amble cottage is light and bright and has been well designed with a wide window to offer beautiful views of the sea.

The open plan living area provides a sociable place for guests to gather; on chilly days the attractive woodburner, set in a stone inglenook, can be lit to provide a warm, cosy sitting area.

When the sun is shining, the French doors can be thrown open to let the sun creep in from the enclosed south-facing courtyard, a delightful little sun trap ideal for an afternoon's alfresco dining, relaxing, or a great place for the kids to play with the dog.

This Amble cottage overlooks a grassy area which leads to the wooden Amble pier, a favourite spot for kids of all ages to dangle a line off the edge, hoping for a catch.

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
