  • "We had a lovely stay."

    The Byre is warm and welcoming. Everything was provided for a very comfortable holiday. The cleanliness was second to none. Delicious cake and chocolates were a real treat. Would not hesitate to recommend this property. Very dog friendly - beach walks just a few minutes away. Lots of great dog friendly eating places near by - Bertrams in Warkworth is outstanding, Elizabeth and Chris and their gorgeous doggies were excellent hosts. Thank you for a lovely stay - we hope to return soon.

  • "We were welcomed at The Byre by the owners."

    Cake/milk/bread/butter/wine had all been provided for us. Initially the property was a bit chilly but this was soon rectified and the lovely log burner with unlimited wood available was a valuable addition to a windy, wet week. The Byre was spotlessly clean with a comfortable double bed, loads of hot water and ample parking. There are nice walks to Alnmouth and Amble and Cragside and Alnwick are easily driveable.

    Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We are so pleased you enjoyed the welcome pack. A fire does make a difference. We are glad you had a lovely time. Property Owner

    A real home from home, we felt very comfortable from the first minute. The property was spotless, well equipped, with a beautiful outside patio to enjoy a glass of wine on. It’s only 10 mins walk to a very quiet sandy beach and into Warkworth centre with numerous coffee shops, restaurants and pubs. You’ve then got a beautiful coastline to explore. All in all a very chilled week, Chris and Elizabeth were perfect hosts, we fully intend to visit again.
