“What a gem of a holiday cottage.”

Beautifully maintained and equipt with everything you need. An amazing welcome pack! Thank you Hilary. Warksworth is lovely, nice pub and couple of shops. Parking no problem, just down the bottom of the lane the cottage is on.

“Wisteria Cottage is a beautifully renovated property in a scenic location by the river in Warkworth.”

We had a lovely few days in this cosy cottage with a very generous welcome basket and a good supply of logs for the burner. We would highly recommend this property.

Karen October 2023

“A perfect spot for our family holiday, thanks so much!”

The cottage is super comfortable - seemingly newly renovated and had everything we needed. Loved the wood burner. The host was really thoughtful. The location was, of course, superb, and absolutely no problem parking. Highly recommend.

- Karen, October 2023
Kate October 2023

“Another wonderful time at Wisteria Cottage.”

John September 2023

“Wisteria Cottage was just great.”

Welcoming, comfortable and spotlessly clean, and a great Welcome Pack. Excellent situation only a mile or so to the beach, and lots of other great beach walks only short drives away, and Alnwick and Morpeth too. Well fitted kitchen if you tire of the amazing steak pies, etc., in The Masons Arms two minutes away. We had a fantastic week.

- John, September 2023
Martin September 2023

“Nicely furnished and decorated by an owner who clearly cares about those stays there.”

Good communication from the owner throughout- none from Sykes. Owner lives locally which is a big plus Excellent welcome pack. Excellent location Cottage is quite small. Better for 2 people than 4

Gabriel August 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay at Wisteria Cottage, it is a lovely place and impeccably kept.”

It is extremely well equipped, one of the best we ever stayed in. Workworth is a lovely town with a beautiful castle and the river snaking around it makes it very special, it is close to many beautiful places. We would definitely recommend it.

- Gabriel, August 2023
Mina July 2023

“Beautifully appointed and every comfort well thought out.”

Absolutely gorgeous. A lovely base to explore Warkworth and the nearby areas of Alnwick, Alnmouth and Amble. So many amazing walks (and castles) we ran out of time. Highly recommended for a comfortable, carefree stay.

- Mina, July 2023

“Cottage was beautiful, the owner couldn’t have done any more for us, home from ...”

Cottage was beautiful, the owner couldn’t have done any more for us, home from home would love to come & stay again in the future, highly recommend, thank you Mark & Jan Wilson

Jennifer June 2023

“The cottage is perfect for a couple - clean, cosy and comfortable.”

It is hidden away in a quiet little street away from the busy main road in Warkworth. A very generous welcome pack awaits. The cottage is spotlessly clean and everything is provided to make sure you have a relaxing holiday. We loved it. Two tips for visitors - the cutlery drawer is hidden in the cupboard where cling film etc is to be found, and leaving time is actually 10 am not 9.30am as Sykes Cottages may tell you! The owner of the property is very helpful and kind. We really recommend this home from home for those who love walking and exploring the beautiful Northumbrian coast. Car parking wasn’t a problem as there were always spaces along by the river at the end of the terrace. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Jennifer, June 2023
Tony May 2023

“Couldn't have asked for anything more.”

Lovely comfy, clean cottage, furnished/decorated with both taste and style. The owner was on hand (via text) to answer all our questions...and provided us with a welcome pack, which was.......very welcome! We'll definitely return.

- Tony, May 2023

Dave March 2023

“WOW what a brilliant cottage, fantastically presented, the workmanship is outstanding.”

Fantastic welcome pack. Plenty of communication with the owner, who visited on the first night to check that everything was ok, who should be really proud of what she has achieved with this cottage. Thank you Ann & Dave Rhodes.

Malcolm March 2023

“Lovely cottage.”

Superb facilities

- Malcolm, March 2023
Charlotte March 2023

“We had a lovely impromptu 3 night break in Wisteria.”

The cottage was cute, cosy and had everything we needed. It was our first break away as a new family and we felt very comfortable- enjoying the sights of Northumberland during the day and relaxing by the log burner at night. We were sad to leave but will definitely be back! Thank you so much for a lovely stay.

- Charlotte, March 2023

Thank you so much for your kind comment. I'm delighted that you enjoyed your stay and found everything that you needed especially as it was your first trip away with your young babe. It will be lovely to welcome you back should you choose to revisit Northumberia. Property Owner

“Cosy well appointed cottage, quiet spot in a lovely village”

Mrs Leech Mar 2023

“My husband and I would like to thank you for the loan of your beautiful cottage.”

We had an amazing week and Wisteria Cottage was beyond our expectations.

- Mrs Leech, Mar 2023
Sarah February 2023

“Despite the owners e mail to my complaint I would like to say that there was a dirty glass, dirty cutlery and a dirty pan, I wish I had taken photos but I had washed them up before I thought of it.”

This is a very small property and the owner is not open to receive any criticism. I would not recommend this property , after 10 weeks staying in different places this is by far the worst and very expensive for the accommodation. All the owners of other properties have been lovely , this owner seems very aggressive and not open to criticism.

- Sarah, February 2023

Thank you for your feedback. As I have not had any direct contact with you, only via a third party email, I can assure you that we welcome all feedback as we aim to give our guests a pleasant and enjoyable stay. I am sorry that your experience was not up to your expectations and wish that you had contacted me directly during your stay to settle any resolvable issues. I can also assure you that I personally clean and put a lot of pride and effort into this newly restored cottage and regret that I can't share the comments in the handwritten guest book which I feel reflect this. In regards to the pricing, I'd like to mention that the cottage company is responsible for rates and, unfortunately, the wk of your stay was the school half term wk, when all the cottages are more expensive.
