“This was the third time that we have stayed at Corner Cottage because it feels like home from home.”

It is warm and cosy and spotlessly clean.

Anne October 2024

“We love this little cottage, which is in a good location for walking or sightseeing locally as well as further afield.”

Beautifully furnished with quirky finishing touches that give it a real cottage feel. Practical and clean with everything you need. Everything is kept simple so you can feel at home very quickly. The handbook is useful and kept free of clutter so you see the important bits, including some suggestions for places to visit and eat etc. The welcome gift was appreciated. Thank you. We’ll be back!

Alison September 2024

“My friend and I had a lovely stay here.”

The cottage is very comfortable, clean, warm and well equipped. Thank you!

Helen August 2024

“The cottage is in a lovely setting and we were really close to the nature reserve.”

We really appreciated the wine and biscuits left by the owner. Very gratefully received. The cottage was well equipped although it lacked a freezer…..the small one in the fridge did not keep things frozen. We could certainly have done with more towels. We had a hand towel and bath towel each but would have preferred larger bath towels. Otherwise everything else was great including a file with how all the appliances worked……really useful. We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage.

Lovely house which we have used before However it could do with more cutlery and crockery given that there was a dishwasher

- David, June 2024
Julie June 2024

“A gorgeous, coastal themed cottage, ideally located for access to the fabulous places in Northumberland.”

A complimentary bottle of prosecco and biscuits were very welcome on our arrival. We felt very cosy during our stay in Corner Cottage.

- Julie, June 2024
Pat April 2024

“What a quirky and comfortable cottage.”

. the first thing you notice is the lovely garden and birds, when inside, the cottage is very clean. Well done cleaners! The kitchen is well stocked with different crockery and large mugs (important to us!) lots of pots if you want to cook and an oven that’s easy to use. The front room is comfortable and warm.. (walls are very thick) and full to bursting with books, a few dvds and a cabinet of jigsaw puzzles.. the owner has thought about those rainy days.. upstairs, the bedrooms were clean and the beds super comfy.. we slept soo well every night.. shower room is warm and the shower is very efficient.. we loved every day there. Also recommend the farm vending machine just down the road for milk, milkshakes and butter. All top notch and very fresh and tasty.. we shall return in the future.

- Pat, April 2024
Peter April 2024

“Overall a pleasant stay but facilities adequate.”

However, no dishcloth or spare toilet rolls which we had to buy. Plug sockets not conveniently placed for hairdryers. Mirror in second bedroom but no socket. Mirror in main bedroom but socket behind the bed. Complimentary soap in bathroom would have been appreciated.

- Peter, April 2024
Guy April 2024

“This is the third time we have stayed here.”

We love the cottage- very comfortable, cosy and always immaculately clean. Opening up the garden more was a great idea- shame the weather on this occasion wasn’t good enough to enjoy it. We will be back.

- Guy, April 2024
Carmaine January 2024

“Absolutely beautiful cottage.”

With great facilities and everything you need for your stay. Books, games and dvd galore plus a nature reserve just up the road. We will be back

Anne October 2023

“We had a lovely time in Northumberland and the cottage is beautiful!”

A ‘proper’ cottage in a peaceful location, ideal for exploring the Northumberland coast. Appreciated the home crafted items like the cupboard curtain in the kitchen, the ‘SEA ‘ knitted hanging and denim mat as well as and the crocheted throw. So much work and care to create a homely ambiance. LOTS of books! A generous welcome gift. Thank you!

- Anne, October 2023
Lisa October 2023

“We have stayed in Corner Cottage before so knew what to expect and we weren't disappointed.”

It was spotlessly clean and very cosy. The bathroom has been renovated since our last stay and we thought that the shower was wonderful.

- Lisa, October 2023
Ian September 2023

“Lovely cottage, very close to the beaches and nature reserves.”

- Ian, September 2023
Martyn September 2023

“Lovely property, ideal for two people, nice and quiet.”

We have stayed there twice now and will probably stay again.

- Martyn, September 2023
Paul August 2023

“Very comfortable and enjoyable stay.”

- Paul, August 2023
Jane August 2023

“This is a wonderful holiday cottage, it is light and airy and very well equipped.”

It has a cosy ,welcoming feel to it but is spacious and well designed. As it is three people there is plenty of room and has everything a holiday cottage needs for a relaxing break.Thank you for a fantastic stay and hopefully we will be back again.

- Jane, August 2023
Sharon July 2023

“Booked for my brother, sister-in-law & 7 year old niece who came to visit from Thailand.”

They all loved the cottage, the location & how cosy it was. Had everything they needed & despite the weather being not so nice they really enjoyed it & would stay there again. Peaceful , but not far from the beach & town & walking distance to the milk vending machine which was a real novelty for them , would definitely recommend staying here.

- Sharon, July 2023
Barbara June 2023

“Seating is very low and could do with a hook on bedroom door”

- Barbara, June 2023
Paul June 2023

“The cottage is very comfortable and homely, lovely place to stay and very peaceful.”

Local amenities are easy to reach within a mile and we certainly will highly recommend Cottage.

- Paul, June 2023
Jeremy May 2023

“The cottage is well kept and the place is really lovely.”

However the furniture in the living room needs modernisation to accommodate people with mobility issues. The seating is very low and uncomfortable. However overall very nice accommodation.

- Jeremy, May 2023
Catherine May 2023

“We had a really lovely stay at the cottage.”

It was very clean and comfortable and a really good base for touring the area.

- Catherine, May 2023
Terence April 2023

“Wonderful as always”

- Terence, April 2023
Andy April 2023

“A well situated cottage in a quiet hamlet.”

Comfortable bed and the place was very clean. Easy walk to the sea via a public footpath behind the house. The wildlife centre down the road well worth a visit. Free entry, £2 if you park the car. The house has a narrow driveway for parking. The driveway has a tree, birds like the tree. Take a sponge, your car will be repainted.

- Andy, April 2023
Zana December 2022

“We had the most amazing stay at the Corner Cottage!”

Lovely house, very comfortable, superb location - can't fault it - will be returning soon!

- Zana, December 2022
Jane November 2022

“The cottage was lovely, very cosy.”

I have only one point of disappointment which was that the TV was minuscule (14inch?), and not being a smart TV you could not access bbc iplayer or other streaming services - this left the evenings where we did watch telly down to the whims of scheduling. I think the cottage would be perfect with just a larger smart TV.

- Jane, November 2022
Lucy October 2022

“In general we enjoyed our break, and it's a sweet cottage.”

Lovely treats from the owner, thank you for those. My big disappointment was the bath, or should I say lack of bath. On the website there is definitely a bath in the photo, and I booked the cottage on the premise that there was a bath - as we were having a walking / cycling holiday.

- Lucy, October 2022
Linda September 2022

“Lovely cosy cottage, ideal to explore the area.”

- Linda, September 2022
Donald September 2022

“Very comfortable property - couldn’t ask for more.”

Accurate as described - only drawback was lack of really local pub/shop but that was hardly owners fault! Also we failed to find shortest footpath to beach until the last day!

- Donald, September 2022
Iona September 2022

“Beautiful property - very thoughtful and careful styling.”

It was just perfect for me and my husband in terms of comfort, location and size.

- Iona, September 2022
Guy August 2022

“This is the second time we have stayed at Corner Cottage.”

We love it. It is really comfortably, homely and quiet. It is a short walk to the beach and then along the coast to Amble. The wildlife reserve that you can walk to is also great. Loads of things to do up and down the coast.

- Guy, August 2022
Mervyn August 2022

“This is a wonderful cottage- quiet, spacious, clean and with every detail thought of.”

It’s perfectly situated - near a beautiful beach and coquet island and close to numerous memorable locations in Northumberland. We loved it there!

- Mervyn, August 2022
Kelvin July 2022

“Lovely cottage on the outskirts of Amble.”

- Kelvin, July 2022
Georgina April 2022

“We had an excellent stay at Corner Cottage.”

It was welcoming and well decorated. The owner has really thought about how it can be a home from home. There was every appliance or utensil you would need to enjoy your stay. It had a lovely bathroom with a good size shower and fantastic water pressure. We also really appreciated the gift on arrival, it was a lovely touch. The cottage itself was in a quiet village close to the beach this was perfect when you just wanted a stroll after tea. It had a small garden area with a big hotel and was perfect for bird watching. We would definitely recommend visiting here and hopefully might stay again.

- Georgina, April 2022
Rebecca March 2022

“Perfect location.”

Quiet, close to a lovely beach and easy reach of the castles, beaches and moors of this beautiful part of the world. Cottage was comfortable and beautifully decorated. Had everything we needed and enjoyed the woodburner immensely! Highly recommended.

- Rebecca, March 2022
Terence March 2022

“This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at corner cottage, we love it .”

Great location . The property is beautifully presented with everything you need for your stay .

Dorothy December 2021

“This was a lovely cottage, comfortable and beautifully decorated.”

Great situation giving access to lots of beautiful villages around the Northumberland coast.

- Dorothy, December 2021
Jen October 2021

“The cottage was in an excellent location, not as remote as it looked on the pictures.”

The cottage was clean, well presented & we had a nice welcome. The internet was very hit & miss - during our stay it only was available for approx. 48 hours which wasn't a big issue (due to a fault on the line) but it meant we were unable to watch films on the ipad or on Netflix on an evening.

- Jen, October 2021
Guy October 2021

“The cottage was really lovely.”

Spotless and beautifully presented. The location was ideal being very quiet, very close to al lovely beach and a short drive to a supermarket. We certainly be back.

- Guy, October 2021
Margaret September 2021

“We had a very enjoyable holiday in Corner cottage which was immaculate, very clean and had everything you needed.”

It was also well positioned to enjoy many of Northumberland's treasures. We would thoroughly recommend it.

- Margaret, September 2021
Margaret August 2021

“A bit difficult to park due to overgrown bushes.”

Garden needs some Work doing. Lots of cobwebs behind beds and ceilings.

- Margaret, August 2021
Helen August 2021

“Despite restrictions, the cottage had a very homely feel and was a great base for exploring the area.”

I loved sitting in the little garden, watching the birds, bees and butterflies flitting about.

- Helen, August 2021
Lucy July 2021

“We had a wonderful time holiday and Corner Cottage is an absolute delight!”

Just how you hope a holiday cottage would be. It was our first holiday away with a child and young baby, everything was clean with lots of attention to detail in all rooms. The garden is beautiful. We will definitely be booking to stay here again!

- Lucy, July 2021
Mark July 2021

“This was a lovely little cottage.”

It is beautifully presented with everything you need for a fantastic stay. The location is great - a short 7/8 minute walk to the beach, which is quiet and a beautiful place for a morning swim, lazy day on the beach and a quiet drink watching the sun go down! Perfect location to explore the surrounding area. There are several good restaurants within 20 min drive. We will definitely return!

- Mark, July 2021

- Julie, June 2021
Susan May 2021

“Corner cottage is very comfortable and well equipped.”

The rooms are light and airy and great thought had been given to the decoration. The cottage garden is a delight. We are frequent visitors to Northumberland and this quiet corner is well placed for excursions. The nearby nature reserve is a real find. Amble is becoming a good centre for shopping and services and Warkworth and Alnmouth are not far away. We had a very enjoyable week.

- Susan, May 2021
Lynne April 2021

“This was a wonderful holiday.”

Corner Cottage in High Hauxley is a perfect base from which to explore the Northumberland Coast. The cottage is immaculately furnished, cleaned to perfection and fully equipped. It is exceptional.

- Lynne, April 2021
Chris September 2020

“Everything was good can't fault it at all, the best cottage we have stayed in.”

Also the location good for the beach, walking, and Morrisons.

“Lovely little cottage in a quiet location, we look forward to returning next year.”

..hopefully.

- Martyn, August 2020
Hannah October 2019

“We enjoyed a relaxing week at Corner Cottage.”

It is clean, well equipped, and tastefully decorated. The owners have clearly given some careful thought to the comfort of their guests. After a long journey we were very happy to find milk in the fridge so we could make a reviving cup of tea and we also enjoyed the tasty biscuits that were kindly be left for us. Having a beautiful beach just a short walk away was a real bonus. We loved splashing in the waves and skimming stones and then returning to our cosy holiday home for hot chocolate, and on a practical note, the entrance hall/utility space was very handy as it meant we could get out our wet gear quickly and hang it all up to dry ready for our next adventure. We also visited the nature reserve just around the corner and were impressed with the warm welcome in the lovely lookout cafe, which was perfect for bird watching... and eating cake! As well as venturing out we also rather liked staying in with the log burner on watching family films. The cottage has a great selection of dvds, books, and a basket of toys for little people.

- Hannah, October 2019
Terry September 2019

“4th time. Says it all.”

We'll be going back.

- Terry, September 2019

“The wash basin was small in the bathroom which men't the floor got very wet.”

- Michael, September 2019
James August 2019

“Great cottage in a really good location for exploring the Northumberland Coast.”

Lovely places like Warkworth, Alnwick, Bamburgh and Seahouses are within an easy drive, and sights such as Cragside are a mere hour away by car. This is a beautiful and cosy cottage that is really comfortable and welcoming. It's excellently presented and very clean. Excellent facilities and wonderful to have a well done kitchen with everything there for those of us who like to cook. Great library and DVD collection too for nights in. The only bits we'd say to bear in mind are about the beach location and the broadband. The walk to the beach is ok for an adult - it's a good 10 minute walk - but we found it was too much for a young child. There is thankfully a car park nearby. Also, broadband speed is slow. This is no fault of the cottage, it's just that it's in a rural location. The Wi-Fi is good throughout the cottage and you can browse the internet but it's no use for streaming on a tablet.

- James, August 2019
Frances July 2019

“A beautifully presented little cottage, so comfortable and spotlessly clean.”

Location in beautiful Northumberland just perfect, close to so many interesting places to explore. A great holiday.

- Frances, July 2019
Thomas June 2019

“Lovely location just a short walk from the sea, plenty of places to visit in Northumberland.”

- Thomas, June 2019
Ann June 2019

“The cottage was charming and extremely well decorated with great attention to detail.”

It was well situated for many attractions in the area and very close to a wonderful beach. I would recommend this listing to anybody visiting the area. A wonderful holiday enhanced by the quality of the accommodation.

- Ann, June 2019
Anne June 2019

“The owners had been very thorough in the cleanliness of the cottage, and in the equipment provIded; from the comfy beds, extra blankets, kitchen tools and crockery, to a wide range of books, DVDs and information about the local area, they thought of everything.”

We really enjoyed our stay, and appreciated the welcoming items. For the size of the cottage the owners have made the very best of the space, and the seating area in the back garden was a real bonus.

- Anne, June 2019
Alison June 2019

“Never been to Northumberland before but can’t wait to go back.”

So much to see. The cottage was the icing on the cake.

- Alison, June 2019
Michael May 2019

“Corner Cottage was an excellent base to explore Northumberland.”

The cottage was clean and comfortable with plenty of books, games and interesting ornaments.

- Michael, May 2019
Robin May 2019

“Lovely little cottage.”

Very welcoming and in a lovely quiet village close to Amble and the sea.We hope to return.

- Robin, May 2019

“Very clean well maintained property in good quiet location.”

- Margaret, April 2019
Bridget April 2019

“Corner Cottage is a beautifully appointed and very comfortable cottage which has real style - probably one of the best we've ever stayed in.”

There is everything you could ever want, from the log burner to the selection of books! It was a delight to return there after windblown and chilly days out. It's also ideally situated for exploring the area, either straight outside the door or within an hours drive. We'd definitely stay there again.

- Bridget, April 2019
Andy March 2019

“A delightful cottage.”

Meticulously clean and beautifully decorated and equipped - especially the kitchen and lounge. Terrific library. All the decor and furnishings are well thought-out and integrated, and the lounge is one of the best we’ve seen in our many holiday cottage stays; one of our party was ill for most of the week, but there couldn’t have been a nicer cottage to be ‘stuck’ in. Upstairs is a bit less spacious, but beds are comfortable and the shower is good. Footpath across the fields gets you to the shoreline in ten minutes. Overall, a first-class cottage, really well looked after. Kudos to the owners. :-)

- Andy, March 2019
Edwina December 2018

“Corner Cottage in High Hauxley is a super place to spend time and a great location to explore Northumberland from.”

The cottage is thoughtfully put together and is clearly cared about. We choose the cottage because it had a woodburner which kept us toasty during out stay (we did bring and buy our own wood to see us through the week) and it had a kitchen capable of cooking Christmas dinner. When we arrived some Christmas decorations had been hung which was an unexpected and thoughtful touch. We are keen walkers so that boot room behind the kitchen was perfect and in poor weather outdoor weather could be corralled in one place without trapsing through the house. The cottage was always warm to come back to and there was plenty of hot water. It matched our needs perfectly and we would recommend to anyone else who wants to explore the Northumberland coast and genuinely self cater.

- Edwina, December 2018
Graham September 2018

“One of the best holiday homes we have stayed in.”

Spotlessly clean, very quiet, great position close to the coast. Highly recommended

- Graham, September 2018
Samantha August 2018

“Corner Cottage, High Hauxley, is a very nicely presented and clean holiday cottage, with a lovely welcome pack of Prosecco and biscuits on arrival.”

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare breakfasts, lunches and evening meals (when not eating out). The book library is well stocked with a whole range of books, plus there are a good selection of DVDs (in particular for little ones). There are plenty of games to keep families entertained on evenings too. Corner Cottage ideally suits couples as opposed to families due to it's size, which we felt was somewhat lacking, in addition to their being limited storage space to put away clothes for a weeks stay. On a personal note we felt the beds were too hard (for us it was like sleeping on floorboards) and the bathroom sink far too tiny. We decided to cut short the week's stay due to the uncomfortable beds as it was very difficult to get a good nights sleep, plus the people staying next door in Middle Cottage were very noisy through to the early hours of the mornings which kept us awake most nights! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OWNERS REPLY - We take our customer's feedback very seriously and we were saddened to hear that you cut short your holiday at Corner Cottage due to the beds and noise from holiday makers in the adjoining property. With regard to the beds, you compared sleeping on them to sleeping on floorboards. We should like to = point out that our mattresses are of medium firmness and in three years of running our cottage we haven't had any negative feedback about them. Everyone is different however, and although we have tried to strike a balance, it obviously didn't work in your case. With regard to the noisy neighbours, although we cannot be held responsible for them, it is a great shame you hadn't thought to get in touch with us at the time using the details provided in the cottage, or alternatively you could have contacted Sykes. Either way, we could have got on to the problem immediately and dealt with it. Once again, we are very sorry that your holiday didn't live up to expectations.

- Samantha, August 2018
Stefan July 2018

“I was incredibly impressed by the cottage.”

It’s a beautiful little place with fantastic facilities and so, so clean. Communications with the owners were slick too. We particularly appreciated the range of books and games but even details like a parking permit were much appreciated. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

- Stefan, July 2018
David July 2018

“We really enjoyed our time at the Corner Cottage but there were 2 or 3 things that would have made it better.”

These are not complaints - they are just recommendations based on our experience. We had intended to use both bedrooms but our daughter was taken ill & the 2nd bedroom was therefore available fo us to use & we did find it beneficial as the master bedroom was a bit cramped for space & we were able to make god use of the set of drawers & the hooks of the wall in the 2nd bedroom. We believe that the master bedroom would be much improved if the large Wardrobe was removed & was replaced by a small set of drawers & wall hooks similar to those in the 2nd bedroom. The bed could then be moved to a more central position, perhaps creating room for 2 small bedside cabinets & certainly giving more room around the bed near the window & providing somewhere for day-clothes to be placed conveniently overnight. We also feel that a slightly larger hand-basin in the bathroom would be an improvement. The current basin really is difficult to use properly. A few CD's would also have been welcomed for use on the player you supplied in the lounge We hope you will not be offended by these suggestions - we loved the cottage & the amenities & we had a super week there. You have obviously gone to great trouble to proved a warm, friendly & cosy environment - and we loved it!! Warm regards David & Sharon

- David, July 2018
Geoffrey June 2018

“An immaculately clean, well decorated cottage.”

Well equipped for all your self-catering needs. Great selection of books: good literature and everything relating to Northumberland's walks. places of interest, history, wild life, etc. Lots of children's stuff too. Beds a little firm for us, but that's a personal preference. Quite location, beach and nature reserve easily walked to. Shops, pubs etc., a short drive. Convenient for all Northumberland has to offer. Highly recommended! Tip: after unloading, move your car to the road. The off-road parking at the rear is under a large tree which, in early June at least, dropped a lot of very sticky debris. Road parking is no problem; the road is quite wide and has very little traffic.

- Geoffrey, June 2018
Kathleen April 2018

“The cottage was extremely comfortable and had every creature comfort you could ask for.”

Felt like a real home rather than a holiday cottage. It also had a well maintained pretty garden. We couldn't wait to return to the cottage after a day out exploring the wonderful Northumbrian Coast and Countryside.

- Kathleen, April 2018
Russell March 2018

“A really great and comfortable cottage, we all really enjoyed our stay.”

Good location with the beach and nature reserve 10 mins walk away. Watch out for the pot-holes though.

- Russell, March 2018
Irene December 2017

“Excellently presented and furnished with many extras we hadn't anticipated and took.”

eg washing up liquid. Good access for local area and appreciated off road parking. Perhaps some intrusions re last part of journey would we good as we sailed past it first time!

- Irene, December 2017
Rachel November 2017

“A super cottage, warm, comfortable, well equipped and a great location.”

Near perfect.

- Rachel, November 2017
David October 2017

“Lovely. traditional, well-presented cottage - comfortable, cosy and very warm.”

Coffee, tea, sugar and milk left by owners which was very welcome on arrival. Also the bottle of Prosecco and packet of luxury biscuits left by the owners was a lovely gesture that was much appreciated. Great location for exploring this section of the Northumberland coast. Alnwick, Alnmouth, Rothbury, Craster, Bamburgh Castle, Holy Island and Berwick all within acceptable travelling distance.Spoilt for choice for tourist attractions and visits eg. Alnwick Castle, Woodhorn Mining Museum, RNLI Grace Darling Museum, Wallington Hall, Cragside House and Gardens to name but a few. Fantastic coastal walks and beautiful beaches (eg. Durridge Bay) all on the doorstep.

- David, October 2017
Philip September 2017

“FANTASTIC is a word that describes this beautiful cottage that has everything you require to be a hermit, its location for long walks through stunning unspoiled and deserted countryside couldn't be better.”

Ambel is a short walk away which the however as a town is a throw back there are some lovely restaurants. Highly recommend a week away from it all in Northumberia

- Philip, September 2017
Nigel August 2017

“As we wrote in the guest book at Corner Cottage, we went straight into holiday mode the moment we arrived.”

Ideally located for Amble, the beach, local restaurants and all the wonderful attractions of Northumberland. No place felt too far afield because Amble is so central for anything coastal or inland. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the cottage and the atmosphere it created. Lovely clean and fresh living space and kitchen with everything we needed to hand, so much so that we felt at home at once. A big thank you for all the thought and care that has gone in to creating the perfect self-catering holiday cottage. We would highly recommend it.

- Nigel, August 2017
Victor July 2017

“The cottage was really lovely with every need met.”

The welcoming touches such as wine and cakes etc were an appreciated thought. Would book this cottage again as it is ideally positioned to explore the surrounding area.

- Victor, July 2017
Jennifer July 2017

“Although the weather was not brilliant, this cottage was a lovely comfortable home from home.”

...we even lit the log burner.! It is stunning and stylish throughout and equipped to the highest standard. Everything you could possibly need is there. There were fresh flowers, cakes and wine waiting for us and milk in the fridge.We cannot recommend this cottage more highly.

- Jennifer, July 2017
J June 2017

“A very comfortable, clean and immaculately presented property.”

A lovely array of treats waiting for our arrival, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We would certainly consider booking Corner Cottage again and recommending this property to our friends.

Everything we needed was at their cottage and was beautifully appointed,in addition the communication with the owners was spot on

- Nigel, June 2017
Ann May 2017

“We stayed at this delightful, cosy cottage from 29th May to 3rd June 2017 – the nicest holiday let we have stayed in.”

The decor and furnishing are really tasteful and it was spotlessly clean. Following an easy booking process with Sykes Cottages and helpful, personal e-mails from the owners, we arrived to find fresh flowers, wine and delicious home-made cake awaiting us. We loved using the wood-burning stove – even though we didn’t really need it! We would very definitely recommend it.

- Ann, May 2017
Lisa April 2017

“We had a fantastic holiday at Corner Cottage.”

The cottage itself was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and very cosy. Its position makes it ideal for exploring the Northumberland coastline and there are walks from the door onto the local beaches. The owners left us a homemade cake and a bottle of Prosecco which was a lovely touch and we would highly recommend staying there.

- Lisa, April 2017
Sheena March 2017

“The cottage could not be faulted, extremely clean with good quality furnishings, owner obviously wants to create an impression, their taste clearly evident in the little touches.”

I would definitely recommend a stay here.

- Sheena, March 2017
Rosemary December 2016

“My Mother and I booked this cottage over Christmas.”

We were between houses on a move to the area. I cannot praise this cottage enough. It is stocked with everything you need and more. Open a drawer or cupboard and there was a surprise! From games, cds, children's book, Baby dishes and spoons to birthday cake candles. The bird life in the garden was a pleasure to watch, although they did make a mess of the car! Situated just outside Amble it could not have been better located. The Owner and her Mother were waiting on our arrival and we were welcomed warmly. We were shown round the cottage which had been tastefully decorated for Christmas so we did not miss out on festivities. The log burner made us feel very snug in the evenings. This is truly a delightful place to spend a holiday.

“Great cottage which is extremely well located for a beach style holiday.”

An ideal base for touring coastal Northumberland. Easy walk to local beach with Amble close enough for a good walk along the road, coastal track, beach (depending upon tide) or a short drive. Very clean and well equipped with everything one could need for a self-catering holiday.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Corner Cottage.”

It was so beautifully furnished and impeccably clean. The location was ideal for visiting places of interest in Northumberland and there was the added advantage of being so near to the sea. Sykes cottages can be proud of having such a lovely cottage on its books as it is such an excellent advert for the company and would encourage us to book again.

“What a fantastic cottage, small but had everything you could wish for even down to a lemon squeezer.”

Situated perfectly for beach, Amble and lovely walks. What a pity we can't return as from next year they are not excepting dogs. Jennifer Clelland.

“The question of re booking has to be no as of 2017 the owners are NOT allowing dogs and that's a real shame but I'm sure they have their reasons, otherwise the answer would be yes.”

I also would like to say how helpful the ladies on your phones were on 9th Oct. They were very efficient at helping us when we got locked out of the cottage, Thank You again.

“An absolute gem of a cottage!”

Flowers, homemade cake, a bottle of wine and a card to welcome us on arrival. Immaculately presented and tastefully decorated throughout. A plethora of books, board games and videos to suit all ages and numerous guide books and maps of the local area and places to explore. A wonderful little cottage - just a shame it won't be accepting dogs from next year as we would hae booked again.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and could not fault anything.”

It is one of the best places we have stayed and we have been on self catering holidays for many years. The owners have thought of absolutely everything and it really was a home from home. We found the guide books especially useful and could not believe the amount of books there were at the cottage.

“This is the best cottage we have stayed in, and we have been renting cottages for 25 years.”

“My wife, myself and our dog recently holidayed in Northumberland for the first time and were delighted when we opened the door to this lovely cottage.”

The overall presentation of the cottage could not be faulted; fresh and bright decoration throughout, stylish and new furniture with a great kitchen. It has a very homely feel to it with lots of books, boardgames, DVDs and a great log burner for the colder evenings. It is the best cottage we have ever stayed in after 30 years of renting cottages in England and Wales. The garden at the rear was great for sitting in the sunshine with a cup of tea, watching the local birds, and the separate enclosed grass area was perfect for the dog. The hamlet where it is situated is really quiet, only 15 minutes walk to a great beach but is still just a short drive to Alnwick, Warkworth and other locations to visit in the area. We would not hesitate to return there in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to holiday in the area.

Lynne April 2016

“Lovely cottage well stocked with lots of extras not normally supplied in a holiday cottage.”

The location is perfect to explore the wonderful coast and surrounding national park, close to Amble which has good places to eat and shops. The cottage is perfect for couple with dogs and the walk to Amble links is a perfect way to start or end your day. Would definitely recommend this property.

“Corner Cottage had a lovely modern inside but also retained the character of the cottage.”

The décor was well thought out with simple, well placed artwork. The furnishings were extremely comfortable, as was the whole cottage. The cottage garden was very pretty and definitely dog proof. Our pooch really loved it. Well located for visiting many lovely places throughout Northumberland. The owners made us very welcome. We loved our time there and would definitely recommend Corner Cottage to all.

HIGH HAUXLEY

Amble 1.5 miles; Alnwick 11 miles.
