  • "This is a lovely house and we enjoyed our stay."

    There was an issue with the smoke alarms that the owner resolved promptly. However, there were quite a few areas that needed a good clean, including the kitchen. We had to clean the cooker before use, but couldn't figure out how to remove the oven chips that had been left underneath the cooker. Bins hadn't been emptied, wood burner not cleaned after use (we didn't use it) and other issues. But the house is amazing and we will probably return.

  • "A really wonderful place for our family get-together, so geared up for children but also beautifully and tastefully presented."

    We definitely hope to come again! Just a couple of things -- in the front fist floor bedroom one of the overhead light fittings was broken (before we arrived!) and the door into the ensuite there does not even latch, let alone lock; neither were a problem for us but they may be for some people.

    We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to seeing you again. The light has now been replaced- thank you for letting us know it was broken. Property Owner

  • "A beautiful comfortable house."

    Furnished really well with everything in place for a roomy stay and great kitchen which is well equipped. Location just a minutes walk to the fabulous Alnmouth beach and village is ideal. We loved the welcome basket and wine.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are really pleased you had a great time. Property Owner

  • "The standard of seating was poor for mature people as far too low and the dining chairs ,hard too move."

    Very well equipped and clean all round. Thank you.

    Thank you for your feedback. I am glad you found the house well equipped and clean. Following your feedback We will try some pads on the bottom of the dinning room chairs to help them move more easily Property Owner

    ' Easy access to the beach and places to eat and within driving distance to other favourite spots such as Boulmer, Alnwick and other coastal villages. Will be booking again next year.

  • "Location of the property is really good."

    However, the initial enjoyment was short lived when we discovered mould around the showers/bath areas; dirty saucepans and some crockery. Just generally unsatisfactory in the kitchen. I contacted the owner who was helpful and "sympathetic" and was meeting with his cleaning company on the morning we departed! He conceded that there had been previous issues too. All in all, our holiday could have been more comfortable and satisfying. Have heard nothing since!

    Thank you for your feedback and thank you for leaving the house in such a clean and tidy state. I did try to catch up with you on Friday when you left. I did look at the en-suite and there was some discolouration on the ceiling of the shower. I was able to wipe it away with a damp cloth and I have made this point to the cleaners- who have said they will not miss it again. It should have been wiped before your stay. I did also mention that you found a pan with traces of scrambled egg in the bottom and two kitchen utensils that had traces of food still on the bottom. They made the point that we do have 8 matching pans and lots of other kitchen equipment and as a result their experience is that occasionally things are put away by previous guests who have innocently missed the fact that the equipment is not properly clean- especially when a kitchen has as much equipment as ours. They also said that they really can't check all the crockery and the cutlery and all the glasses and the pans in small house with minimal equipment- let alone a 4 bedroom house with place settings for 10. They also reminded me that we do have 2 dishwashers and we supply all the dishwasher tables and new sink cleaning equipment for each guest, but even then some things will slip through. I am sorry that these things took away your enjoyment of the rest of the house and the proximity of the beach. Property Owner

    The owner rang during our stay to check everything was OK for us which was a thoughtful gesture. Would definitely stay here again.

    Hello, thank you for your kind comments. We do try to keep the house well stocked; especially the kitchen because people seem to love using the large table in the dining room and we are looking forward to hosting you all again. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful house n a perfect location."

    We really enjoyed our stay at Rose House. Lots of space and really well equipped. Minor things to improve Wi-Fi coverage - poor in the front rooms of the house and could do with a booster. Downstairs shower wasn’t working (reported by previous stay)

    Thank you for the feedback- we arranged BT whole home WI-FI, and I am sorry the WI-FI coverage wasn’t good in the Living room. We have now had a booster from BT and there coverage is now rated fast in the front rooms Property Owner

  • "Lovely house comfortable well kept which our large family has stayed in before."

    Only problem was the downstairs shower not working. Was so useful last time coming back from the beach. And for me was very accessible as I'm up long before the rest of the family. Also be aware that splashes from the kitchen sink can dribble towards the kettle.

    Peggy thank you for your comments, I am glad you found your way back to us for a second holiday. The shower has been fixed, and I am sorry it was not working this time for you. It’s really handy for getting kids of all ages clean after the beach. It’s the shower I prefer to use. Looking forward to hosting you again Property Owner

The property

Boasting spacious and well-presented three-storey accommodation in a tranquil part of Alnmouth, Northumberland, Rose House is a warm and welcoming property, ideal for both families and groups of eight guests.

Enjoying sea views and a prime position near a host of amenities and the shoreline, Rose Cottage is delightfully styled, mixing both a character and contemporary feel throughout.

Benefit from a permit parking space before travelling through the enclosed patio, ideal for an alfresco affair.

Enter the spacious sitting room, offering an extensive seating area, solid wood flooring, feature exposed stone wall and an ornamental fireplace which all add up to create a really inviting space, where guests can gather and unwind.

The extensive kitchen is fully-equipped, with everything needed to fulfil your self-catering needs, opening into a lovely dining room, where there is a rustic table just made for sociable mealtimes.

Continue to the conservatory, yet another space either for guests to gather and socialise or for a nook away, where guests can curl up with a good book in front of the woodburning stove.

Should the weather allow it, locate the rear courtyard for more of a private feel, perfect for eating and drinking in the sunshine.

When sleep calls, select from four well-presented bedrooms, all offering a relaxing space to unwind and rest, complete with breath-taking sea views, and large, picture windows, allowing for the light to flow in; you’ll find two king-size rooms with en-suites on the first floor, followed by a super-king-size (zip/link) and a twin to the second floor.

Be sure to enjoy some self-care in the bathroom, featuring an indulgent roll-top bath, whilst there is a ground-floor shower room for those who prefer a quick refresh.

Come morning, prepare to explore Alnmouth, its miles of sandy shoreline, a golf course, and a host of popular eateries and shops.

By car reach the scenic town of Alnwick, famous for its castle and gardens, or drive a little further to attractions such as Hadrian’s Wall, Howick Hall, and Gardens, Dunstanburgh Castle and Northumberland County Zoo.

Board one of the many boat trips over to the Farne Islands where you might catch sight of an unusual bird or seal, which if you love wildlife, you’ve come to the right place with RSPB reserves at Annstead Dunes and Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre nearby.
