"Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage especially the comfy beds."
If there was any comment about the cottage it would be that i think there should be a small handrail at the bottom of the stairs and a mat in the bath speaking for myself that is as we are in our seventies. there is everything in the cottage you may need,
Thank you for your kind feedback which is much appreciated. I have taken heed of your constructive advice and have taken the necessary steps to rectify. Property Owner

"A beautiful cottage, very light and airy."
Room sizes good . The beds very comfortable. Fridge freezer a good size. Lots of carpet area but no hoover only a brush and dustpan. Used the top floor work counter to make some seaglass jewellery and our granddaughter was able to do colouring without fear of making a mess . We found that woodbine cottage is in the best area of allonby, much quieter than the other end were we normally stay. If only we could bring our dog this would be the only cottage in allonby we would ever stay in again. Thank you Carmen, and your art is very good.
Thank you for your feedback and kind words. Glad that your granddaughter was able to create art in comfort. Please thank her for the painted stones she left me. They have pride of place. I have now provided a vacuum cleaner for those that need it in the future. Any suggestions to improve the facilities are always helpful. Property Owner

Beautiful remote location on the coast. Lovely surprise to have the welcome bottle of wine and tea and coffee- very much appreciated after the long drive. Thank you for a lovely base for our few days away.
So happy you enjoyed your stay I really appreciate your feedback and would be delighted, when you revisit the beautiful Solway coast again , you would return to Woodbine Cottage and see us again. You are more than welcome! Property Owner

"Very comfortable and warm."
Loved the added touches such as the quirky ornaments and paintings. The location was fantastic too with back door access on to the beach.
So happy you enjoyed your stay. Hope you will return to the beautiful Solway coast again. When you do, you will always be welcome at Woodbine Cottage! Property Owner

"A lovely property overall."
We would have maybe have appreciated a toaster for ease at breakfast possibly. The public right of way around the back of the property could make it intrusive when sitting outside during peak times but generally dog owners and walkers were friendly. A great property for peace and quiet.
Thank you for your feedback which is much appreciated. It was a pleasure having such considerate guests as yourselves and I hope you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

The Cumbria Coastal Walk and Allerdale Ramble pass through the village. Links golf is available at Maryport Golf Course and the world renowned Silloth Golf course. A short trip will take you to the historic city of Carlisle, nip over the border to Gretna Green, experience the 2000-year legacy of Hadrian’s Wall or enjoy fun packed days out exploring the beautiful Western Lakes and fells where there is a wealth of things to see and do, including Hadrian's Cycleway where you can take in the stunning views on your journey.
