  Beautiful views we spent a lot of time upstsirs in the three windowed sitting room. Amenities for all the family, games and books. Gorgeous restaurants and amazing fish and chip van nearby. So pleased you’re not a dog friendly house ! From Judy and Mike

• "Thank you we had a wonderful stay - the property suited our family/holiday needs perfectly and we hope to be back."

  In terms of feedback about the property and its comfort, I don't think we have anything to add except that it took us a long time to work out where the cutlery went in the dishwasher lol. We'll know next time....

• "We had a mixture of weather during our week in Beadnell."

  Returning to Changing tide made it easier to clean up and dry out! We did have lovely weather too!! The cottage is spacious for 6 adults. There are plenty of bathrooms and spacious bedrooms. My husband and I got used to the tiny en-suite in the largest bedroom! The lounge is comfortable and we enjoyed watching the sea and sunsets from the comfort of this room. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed sitting around the lovely dining table. Thank you to owner’s dad for replacing tap in kitchen! It was lovely to meet him! The beaches are outstanding in this part of the world, especially Ross Sands! The cottage is within walking distance of 2 good pubs - Craster Arms and The Landing! Both with table service! And plenty of parking for 3 cars! In general, a good location, beautiful house and great service from host, and thank you to cleaners.

  Thank you for your feedback and glad we were able to help. Property Owner

  Fabulous house, great location , absolutely loved it. Only slight criticism, was the main bedroom blind, didn’t really stop the day light, but other than that it was fantastic. So much so I will be booking again soon .. Thank you . If you find a duck raincoat in the property it’s my grandsons, if you could save it till next year for me

• "This was our first visit to Northumberland and we very much enjoyed the area."

  The location and the house were excellent for a family holiday which included two young granddaughters aged 9 and 6. They thought the location was the best as they had rockpools and beach literally 5 minutes away.. One minor point. It would have been useful to have had some instructions as to how to adjust the heating using the control on the wall.

  Thank you for your feedback. Having the beach so close by is great, so glad you got a chance to enjoy it. Property Owner

• "Changing Tide is a spacious property in a great location, ideal for accessing the amazing beach and only a short distance from a number of local attractions."

  This is probably the best equipped holiday home that we have stayed at and somewhere that we would definitely return to when we visit the North East again.

  Thank you for your kind words, we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

• "We stayed at Changing Tides as a group of 7 for a family Christmas."

  3 couples and a 9 year old. The property had a fantastic amount of space. The upstairs lounge was a brilliant size with gorgeous views of the sea. The dining room and dining table were also really big and easily accommodated us all for Christmas dinner. Lots of lovely Christmas decorations. The house was lovely and clean. Very handy having the extra downstairs sitting room too. We also noticed that noise didn’t carry through the house which is really helpful with all the different bed times! Amazing location for walks on the stunning beach. Lovely welcome hamper left for us. This is definitely one of the best holiday cottages I’ve stayed in and I have stayed in a great deal over the years. Would very much recommend and would be happy to return.

  Thank you for your message, we are glad that you enjoyed your Christmas visit. Property Owner

• "The property is in great location in Beadnell and the layout is perfect for larger groups."

  The house is very well equipped with kitchen items and the welcome basket of tea, biscuits and local honey was a lovely touch. A couple of big downsides though, the house could do with a proper deep clean. The carpets are looking v tired and grubby and very stained in areas particularly near walls. I am not sure the owners used professional cleaners as we found some items were rusty (sieve) or unfit for purpose (cafetière) We wanted to use the hoover and when we found it the dust cylinder was full!! Not nice for a guest to see contents of dust and hair. Another thing that would put us off coming back were the 10 or so typed/laminated “DO NOT’ notices which are EVERYWHERE. It was like having a ever-present wagging finger in every room. “Please remove shoes before going upstairs” stuck on wall at bottom of stairs by another note saying “rinse sand off feet with outside tap before showering” “Please do not place anything on the fireplace as it may stain the natural stone” “ Ensure that all crockery and pans you have used are clean and ready for use by the next guests.” A note in boiler cupboard saying “do not touch the controls” (so you’d have no chance to boost the heating if you were cold). “ If you have used the outside clothes line return the pegs in the peg bag and the clothes basket to the cupboard in the utility room, and retract the line” “ If you have used the barbecue clean it ready for use again. Cleaning tools and materials for this are under the sink in the utility room.” “ Please do not lean on the washing machine door as it has needed to be repaired several times.” “ we hope that you get weather for a BBQ, but could we ask that you clean it after use.” I wouldn’t mind, but we had paid good money for this property (£2000 for seven nights) and being the owner of an Airbnb property myself. I know that you do not place the onus of cleaning on prior guests. More notices: “ PLEASE DO NOT CHARGE ANY ELECTRIC VEHICLES AT THIS PROPERTY” “ Can I please draw your attention to the work top - itis not granite but it does need protection from sharp knives and hot dishes and pans. PLEASE use chopping boards and trivets provided at all times.” Honestly it was endless. I’ve never seen anything so unwelcoming! I understand how precious houses are to owners and you should expect houses to be treated respectfully but it was completely OTT. The garden has a strange metal fence all round, like being in a container. We had a great week but I’d imagine there are more welcoming places to stay in Beadnell.

  Thank you for your feedback. We always want to make our guests feel welcome so are happy to replace any items during your stay where we are told at the time. The notes around the house are there to advise, so that guests know about things and are able to leave them in a certain way so that following guests are able to enjoy the same experience. Over the past four years we have been updating the property and reinvesting to modernise all furniture and carpets. The downstairs carpets will be updated as part of the programme within the next few years. We do appreciate feedback so that we can continue to provide great holidays in a wonderful location.

• "We are 3 couples holidaying for a week so need parking for 3 cars - Changing Tides provides ample."

  The communal spaces are generous, smart and clean. The upstairs lounge has a wonderful view and is very relaxing. The bedrooms are of good size, 2 with en-suites; although the master bedroom en-suite is disappointedly small. However the family bathroom is a good size and there’s a bath and a further toilet on the ground floor. The back garden is also a good size, although the neighbours look out onto it from one window downstairs as originally it must have been 1 long dwelling, and later divided into 2 properties. Its location is ideal. It’s quiet but within walking distance of the well stocked village shop , The Landing ( a very friendly small drinking and eating establishment), and tiny village centre ( consisting of a pub, hotel and a church). Northumberland is a beautiful and largely untouched part of the world. I would certainly return to the area again and stay at Changing Tide. I was so sorry to leave it.
