Georgeene August 2024

“Great location.”

Property was as described could do with some attention in some areas but we had a good stay. Garden was nice and the location was ideal for both the beach and the village. Beadnell is a good base to explore this beautiful region.

Julie July 2024

“The Nest is great and in the perfect location for visiting everything from castles, to boat trips from Seahouses, and lovely walks.”

We also used the bus service which was nice to be able to leave the car. ( check the times on the actual bus stop ) there are very nice places to eat out as well, and a good general store selling a good range of items. The house is excellent very comfortable and spotlessly clean, we were lucky with the weather and it was nice to sit out in the garden overlooking the field, as it gets dark look out for the bats. We had a wonderful week and look forward to visiting again.

“Lovely well equipped, clean property.”

Great location. Walk to beach and easy access to other places on the beautiful Northumberland coast.

- Patricia, June 2024

Dear Patricia ... thanks for your excellent feedback. Really pleased to hear you had a great week and would love to host you again in the future. Kind Regards, Julie & Alan Property Owner

“Excellent place to stay, very comfortable”

- Alan, May 2024
Andrew April 2024

“The nest is a perfect place for a holiday on the Northumberland coast.”

Beadnell village has good places for dining. The house was comfortable and nicely decorated, with plenty of home comforts.

- Andrew, April 2024
Simon April 2024

“Stayed at the Nest as a family of four and the location for us was perfect to explore Northumberland as well as close to all the amenities in Beadnell.”

5 minute walk to the playground, 5 minutes to the pubs, 5 minutes to the pebble beach which is great for dog walking or crabbing. Around a 10 minute walk to Beadnell bay. Living space was fine as a family of 4 with young children (might be a bit small for older children). Garden was great over looking the horse's field. Only downsides being no dishwasher (but doesn't say this is provided in details anyway) and a bit of dusting was required.

- Simon, April 2024
Margaret June 2023

“Lovely small house in a quiet road with a sunny garden overlooking a field with horses.”

Very comfortable and clean , fresh and modern decoration. Everything we needed provided. Great position near to the coast and easy access to main routes. Lots of excellent attractions nearby. The coast is stunning here and has the best beaches and walks. Pub, cafe, small shop and fish and chip van in the village but only a couple of miles to Seahouses with many more facilities. Useful bus service. What more could you ask for?

- Margaret, June 2023
Steven June 2023

“The property is excellent for a week.”

We (a couple) found the decor really cheerful, warm, welcoming and friendly, and the kitchen equipment and shower very good. The car space would begin to feel cramped after a fortnight. The location is an excellent centre for coast based touring (we also got to Alnwick and Cragside). The only negatives to our stay were outside the control of the property; the neighbour in the other half of the semi smoked outside and the smoke came in through the garden window so we had to close it; and once or twice their loud talking kept us awake till gone midnight. (The only maintenance item we noticed was the shaver socket in the bathroom cabinet, which we couldn't make work.)

- Steven, June 2023
Peter J. June 2023

“Very clean and comfortable cottage, with nice garden.”

Just a short walk to two beaches and a village store. Pub and tearoom nearby. Excellent location for visiting the beautiful Northumberland coast.

- Peter J., June 2023
John May 2023

“We had a lovely stay at the Nest.”

The house is bright, comfortable and well equipped with everything you could possibly need during a holiday. The garden is a delight with sparrows and robins coming to feed, and a field behind with two beautiful horses. Beadnell was a good base for exploring the Northumberland coast and beyond. We'd be delighted to stay at the Nest again in the future.

- John, May 2023

Sandra October 2022

“We enjoyed our stay at The Nest.”

It was a good base for our holiday. A cute cosy cottage. We will return.

The bedding provided in double room was inadequate and not fit for purpose The cottage was otherwise perfect Unfortunately as a good nights sleep is part of the experience the quality of bedding provided did not provide enough comfort

- Susan, October 2022

Dear Sandra, The temperature had dropped suddenly and so the warmer duvet should have been available for your stay. We normally have favourable comments about the comfort of the bed /bedding and so were disappointed that this was not your experience. I can only apologise that the winter duvet was not on the bed but was pleased to hear that everything else on the cottage was perfect for your stay. Kind Regards, Julie Property Owner
Lorraine October 2022

“Lovely, has everything you need, clean, cosy, warm.”

Lovely decor and blankets, extras in the kitchen, lots of toilet roll and towels. On top of a beautiful area. Very helpful owners...

- Lorraine, October 2022

Dear Lorraine, Thanks so much for your very positive comments, it's much appreciated and we are delighted to read you had a good holiday. We hope that we can welcome you again in the future. Kindest Regards, Julie & Alan Property Owner
Christine July 2022

“Very nice property- ideal for 2 of us.”

Everything was as advertised and high standard of cleanliness and maintenance. It was really nice receiving a pre holiday call from the owner explaining where everything was in the house. Also Julie gave us some good recommendations about where to visit in the area. We are highly likely to return.

- Christine, July 2022
Philip June 2022

“A very comfortable, well equipped and spotlessly clean home from home.”

There was a vase full of fresh cut roses on the table when we arrived as well as much appreciated tea, coffee, milk and biscuits to revive us after a long journey. The house is ideally situated for strolling along the nearby beach and for visiting the many interesting attractions in the surrounding area. We have no hesitation in recommending “The Nest” .

- Philip, June 2022

Dear Philip, Thanks for your lovely feedback regarding your holiday at 'The Nest' - you're comments are much appreciated and we are delighted to hear you had a good time. We look forward to hopefully seeing you again in the future. Kindest Regards, Julie & Alan Property Owner
Emanuela June 2022

“The property is in a cul de sac so very quiet; it is full of other rental properties and holiday lets.”

It is walking distance to the beach and it had everything that is needed for a short stay; the garden was well kept too and the location is good to visit the coast. It could have been cleaner as there was dust around etc. and the kitchen pans could be replaced.

- Emanuela, June 2022

Dear Emanuela, I'm pleased to hear that you had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Thanks you for your feedback, your comments have been noted and will be followed up. Our previous guests have commented on the high standard of cleanliness of the property and this is a high priority for us. Kindest Regards, Julie Property Owner
Emma May 2022

“A fabulous base for exploring, with the owner offering a friendly warm welcome to Beadnell.”

It’s clear lots of thought has gone into ensuring The Nest has everything required; we had everything we could have needed during our stay. A very short walk to the beach and only 1 minute drive from the beautiful coastal road, The Nest is in a great location. The description of the cottage is very accurate and honest, the second room is more suited to children (or one adult) and provides comfy beds for them. There is more than enough available storage in this cottage, meaning we were able to unpack and feel settled immediately. We really enjoyed our 4 nights here, enhanced even further by the lovely little garden and the neighbouring horses coming to say hello.

- Emma, May 2022
David May 2022

“A lovely little property well situated for the coast, village facilities and surrounding area.”

A nice small sunny garden with 2 horses in the field next door. Owners very helpful in phoning before the visit, and everything in the property that we needed for a lovely break.

- David, May 2022

Dear David .. thank you kindly for your comments. We are delighted to hear you had a great time at Beadnell and had everything you needed for your stay. We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back in the future. Kindest Regards, Julie & Alan Property Owner
Bernhard May 2022

Dear Bernhard, Thank you for the positive feedback and great to to hear you enjoyed your stay at The Nest . We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back I’m the future. Kindest Regards, Julie & Alan Property Owner
James September 2021

“The property would not be suitable for 4 adults due to one double bed and 2 bunk beds adults would find it difficult”

- James, September 2021
Stephen July 2021

“Great location.”

Clean and tidy small house. Small rooms and bed very small in double room. Otherwise all amenities in place and met our needs.

- Stephen, July 2021

Very unspoilt!

Sybil May 2021

“The cleanliness of the property could be improved on.”

I am aware it is contract cleaners but some areas were not up to standards especially the shower cubicle.

- Sybil, May 2021

I appreciate your feedback and for flagging a couple of issues - these have been swiftly rectified. I was pleased to hear that you had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay and we very much look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner
Fergus October 2020

“Nice little village close to Seahouses.”

Easy access to many attractions such as Cragside Estate, Alnwick, Bamburgh and Holy Island. Sunset cottage is great, well equiped and cosy.

- Fergus, October 2020
Peter September 2020

“Really lovely time.”

The accommodation was exactly as described. A tiny improvement would be a bigger fridge/fridge freezer and an extra tea towel please. We would certainly revisit .

- Peter, September 2020
Holly July 2020

About the location

BEADNELL

Seahouses 1.5 miles; Bamburgh 5 miles.

This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.
