• "We had a fantastic few days at Silversands Cottage."

  It was a very well equipped, clean, comfy cottage in a perfect location. Great for my dogs as had enclosed back area, safe to let them out. A little welcome box of goodies was a lovely touch. We had some lovely days out, Amble harbour (5 minute walk) with lovely fish n chips, Cresswell, Duridge Bay Country Park, Warkworth, Craster and Alnwick. All a short drive away.

• "Lovely cottage, with good facilities."

  Amble is a great centre, with it's harbour village and good eating places, especially for seafood. Silversands is an ideal place to stay. Lovely local walks and a playground at the end of the street, with a tiny cove nearby. At no time was the street parking difficult . Thank you Michelle and Aaron. I am so envious of your lovely cottage - we had a wonderful stay.

  It's very well equipped with everything you need and is in absolutely immaculate condition. There was coffee, tea and a bottle of wine on arrival which was a lovely touch. We have stayed in many holiday rentals but this is easily the best and I cannot find any issues with it at all. Highly recommended!

  Note, though, that dogs are not allowed on the beach between May and September although there are many beautiful dog friendly beaches close by. The cottage contains everything needed for a super holiday in a lovely (very dog friendly) town.

• "I will start with my personal negative which is the cottage is not really dog friendly, no dogs upstairs, fair enough there was a stair gate, no dogs on furniture, this proved extremely difficult as there was nowhere to shut him in, no door on kitchen."

  So had to sleep on sofa until he had settled. I’d say dogs have been on sofa because I lost something down the side and yuck it was gross! I always take covers and do respect these properties are someone’s investment. I wouldn’t mind paying a charge for my dog. We always clean before we leave. The cottage was lovely though, well equipped and in a great location. I would recommend it to people without pets unless yours is not a sofa surfer.

  Every thing about the accommodation is fine . A great central place for visiting beautiful Northumberland for us. We had problem with the shower was reported and the owners dealt with it immediately, nice friendly people . The only criticism I have is that parking could be a problem in high season. There is a car park just round the corner and a yearly pass can be bought for the property , after chatting to local neighbour.

  Nice cottage, good location, everything available in the cottage that you require for self catering, we found the door locks problematic and gate area in the yard at the back needs a good scrub and disinfecting has a severe stench of dog urine is in this area, even after swilling down, the sofa is sagging in places and really not that comfy but overall we had a good holiday and would recommend the cottage to others,

  We had a wonderful time and stay in Amble. The cottage was so gorgeous and relaxing, a real home from home we didn’t want to leave. The location was fabulous. We’ve been coming to Northumberland every year for 4 years and this was by far the best holiday we’ve ever had. So much to see and do. Gorgeous village, friendly locals and so many options for walks without leaving the area. The beaches are beautiful and so very clean. Most are dog friendly all year round. The cliffs top scenery was breath taking. We still have walks we didn’t get chance to do as ran out of days. We loved every minute spent here. The only downside was, it went too quickly. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you so much to the owners for letting us share a little piece of your heaven.

  Beautifully presented, spotlessly clean and extremely well provisioned with new looking crockery, cutlery and glassware it was a real pleasure to stay here and very easy to prepare my own meals etc. The welcome pack is a very thoughtful addition. I really liked that stairgates had been put in to assist keeping dogs downstairs. The outside space is small and paved so my dog couldn't use it for toileting or exercise but this wasn't an issue as there are large, grassy areas about a 90 second walk from the door. It was a real treat to stay at such a lovely cottage with my dog. Location is fantastic, Amble it lovely, the beach at Cresswell is amazing and beautiful Warkworth on the doorstep. I'll definitely recommend this one.

  Fabulous location near to the harbour and gorgeous sandy beaches only 3 miles away in Alnmouth. The cottage is very comfortable, clean, facilities are expectional. The added bonus of a smart tv was great, whilst returning to the cottage in an evening to relax and unwind with the roaring log burner. The owners had thought of everything and the kitchen had every untilsil you needed. Amble is a lovely friendly village, and perfect to explore Northumberland. We will definitely return to sliversands. A five star holiday, that we didn't want to end. Carl & Janet

• "Silversands Cottage exceeded expectations."

  True that's it's recently been renovated and everything is new, but the cottage is so cozy and well equipped, a gorgeous fire and just round the corner from a pretty beach where dogs are welcome in winter. We spent Christmas there and the owners went to the extra trouble of a beautiful Xmas tree, a hamper and lovely decorations.We loved this place and will return.

• "Silversands Cottage is the 4th Sykes cottage we have stayed in the area over the last 4 years."

  This cottage is the nicest cottage so far, it felt very relaxing, comfortable & we settled straight away, as did our dog Lucca. It is very warm & cosy, the heating system works efficiently to keep the cottage warm & welcoming in the evening when returning back at the cottage. The beds are amazingly comfy and we slept very well. The cottage was spotless, and easy to keep clean and tidy, very well designed. The smart TV & WiFi made our stay in the evenings active, whilst sitting with our tired dog after our walks on the beaches. The kitchen was very well equipped, because we have food allergies and our dog on holiday with us, we tend to eat in and cook our evening meals. The only thing it lacked was a grabrail on the bath wall to support transfers into the bath and for use of the overbath shower, as the bath is deep to step in and out. The owners Aaron & Michelle were very supportive, they contacted us to ensure we'd got the door lock number and to confirm if we had any issues or difficulty with the electric lock mechanism, to ring them back. The lock was fine and not difficult to use on our arrival. We have just 're booked to return to Silversands Cottage at Amble in February 2017 and always book our cottage through Sykes.

• "A beautifully appointed cottage - the loveliest we've stayed in so far."

  Lots of little touches to make it a real home from home - couldn't fault it. We loved Amble, it's a great place to stay with lots of lovely walks, places to eat and very dog friendly which is important to us. We'll definitely be back.

  Everything you could possibly need. Very clean . I actually looked forward to going 'home' after busy days out in a lovely area. Would strongly recommend this property.

  Little extras left in the fridge on our arrival were most welcome. A very well thought out cottage we would definitely consider using it again.
