  • "The property was very clean and the beds were super comfy."

    It was great having en-suites in both bedrooms as well as the bathroom on ground floor. Property very central and great info in folder re local eateries. Thank you for your lovely gift pack for both the dog and ourselves. Owner very quick to respond to enquiries.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Would be happy to welcome you back anytime.. Property Owner

  • "I was left by both Sykes and the owner for 24 hours without cooking facilities."

    The owner even came round to see the fault, she was aware of how much food we had as we were cooking an early Christma lunch Saturday lunchtime also we had a fridge/freezer food of party snacks that we were cooking on Saturday evening. The owner of the beautiful cottage saw the amount of food that we had that couldn't be cooked. We lost this food plus we were made to spend more money on eating out. This was cruel, unprofessional, disrespectful and not acceptable!! The owner Nikki also advised us that she was going out for dinner with friends who were sat outside in her car waiting for her - she could have offered to contribute towards a takeaway or eating or perhaps getting an electian out although having said this - she simply didn't care

    I am very disappointed with this feedback. You stayed in our cottage for 6 days when the hob apparently broke..I was called by Sykes at 5.30pm on the Saturday night. I came round promptly but struggled to get in as you didn't hear us knocking. There was nothing wrong with the hob, you just needed to put a pan on it, as it's a induction hob, I struggle to believe you didn't realise this having used it for 6 days. You also had a full working oven and microwave which you could have used to cook some of your food. This does not reflect the majority of the feedback I have received for our cottage. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful, clean, accomodation in heart of Amble."

    Well equipped. Lovely welcome pack as an extra touch. Bathrooms are exceptional and beds comfortable. Log burner as well as central heating is an added bonus. I would highly recommend the little terraced house. Parking was not a problem. We had a wonderful very sunny week.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, I'm so pleased the Northumberland sun shone on you all week. Would be happy to welcome you back any time. Property Owner

  • "The house is modern & very well presented."

    The three bathrooms are super and very well kitted out. We enjoyed the living space very much and the nice touch of the welcome basket and fresh milk was much appreciated. The only downside for us was we found the double bed way too firm for us and we weren't too comfortable and didn't sleep well. Sadly there had been some new plaster work done in the second bedroom so we didn't feel we could use that space. We had been given prior notice of this.

    Thank you for your review and glad you found the house comfortable. I am sorry to hear the bed was not as comfy as you would like. I will get a mattress topper I think, so people have options.. Hopefully welcome you back soon. Property Owner

  • "What a gem of a cottage very well situated for all local amenities in the lovely town of Amble."

    Not only did the owner provide a welcome pack for us but some welcome treats for our little dog and a basket of toys for her to play with. Highly recommend.

    Thank you so much for your lovely review. Amble is such a great place for dogs, so we welcome them just as much as our guests.. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

  • "Fabulous comfortable cottage, everything that we needed for our week’s stay."

    Great location close to the shops, cafés & restaurants, & only a 5 minute walk to the harbour & to green areas for the dog. Good contact from Nikki, the owner, checking that everything was ok. Shame there is no private parking space but we managed to park outside the property most of the time.

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback, glad you enjoyed your stay and yes the cottage is great for all the local amenities. Glad you found parking ok, especially with the roadworks on.. Hope to welcome you back again soon. Property Owner

    Clean, comfortable with lots of thought put into the equipment. There is a hairdryer (which it didn’t state in the particulars- so this could be added as I took my own). Amble is a good base for exploring the area with lots of pubs, cafes and restaurants to visit.

  • "I have stayed at many cottages over the years and can honestly say that Myrtle cottage is a clear winner."

    The owner, Nikki, texted after our arrival to check everything was ok for us which we appreciated. The cottage is very well appointed: the furniture is high quality and comfortable; the bedrooms are large and both have en-suite showers - fabulous. The large family bathroom downstairs is gorgeous. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and there was even a doggy welcome pack which my wee dog loved. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Myrtle Cottage - it has everything you need to make your holiday a memorable one. We will definitely be back!

  • "Very clean property and loved the welcome pack."

    Few issues to be aware of. Heating was timed snd unable to change which meant the house got cold. Used the wood burner but upstairs was left cold. Could not use bath downstairs as the bathroom was far to cold. Radiator was not sufficient. Doors to shower very small to get into. Not adequate for a medium to large person. Owner really needs to focus on outside seating area as very unappealing.

    Thank you for your feedback. The heating can be controlled by the thermostat, so can be adjusted as needed. I appreciate the back yard has not been painted yet, it should have been done a few weeks ago, but the weather let us down. It is going to get done next week. Glad you found the property clean and enjoyed the welcome pack. Property Owner

The property

Resting in the charming coastal town of Amble in Northumberland is Myrtle Cottage.

Boasting a fantastic location, paces away from local amenities and the beach, this fabulous, dog-friendly holiday home is the perfect choice for families or friends looking to explore the wonders of Northumberland; it also lies close to Northumberland National Park and the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home where a welcoming and stylish, open-plan living space greets you; after a day full of exploration unwind on the plush sofa in front of the gentle warmth of the woodburning stove.

Later, head through into the spacious, fully-equipped kitchen where you can rustle up tasty meals that the whole family can enjoy around the dining table; be sure to raise a toast to your getaway and reminisce on the cherished memories you have created so far!

After dinner, head into the beautifully-appointed ground-floor bathroom to wash away the day’s adventures in the bath or shower before climbing the stairs to slope off to sleep in either the king-size or twin bedroom, both are fitted with handy en-suites.

Paces away from Myrtle Cottage you can find local stores where you can stock up on all of your self-catering essentials as well as a variety of pubs and restaurants such as Jasper’s Bistro, ideal spots for when you need a break from the kitchen.

Take a short stroll down to the picturesque Amble Marina where you can admire breath-taking views out across the North Sea or head to Warkworth to while away the day with an idyllic stroll along its glorious, golden shores.

Warkworth also houses the medieval ruins of Warkworth Castle, ideal for those looking to brush up on local history; continue the historic excursion by visiting Edlingham Castle riverside ruins, the Bailiffgate Museum or venture further afield for a day trip to Holy Island where you can tour the ruins of Lindisfarne Castle and Priory.

All this and more awaits at Myrtle Cottage!

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
