• "Great stay with great facilities and in a great location."

  Would recommend to anyone coming to stay at Seahouses. Great food at the Black Swan which was only 50 yards away and a good pint at the social club watching sport on the numerous large TVs. Holy Island and Craster only a short drive and also visit the battle field of Flodden.

  We are really pleased that the enjoyed Braidcarr Cottage and Seahouses. We hope you took advantage of the Black Swan discount card that we have in the cottage. Thanks Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage with all amenities Well stocked kitchen crockery and utensils."

  Only downside wish there was more pressure on shower but hey managed to keep clean. The good weather helped fir us to enjoy Seahouses and the Northumberland coast but then sea fret and fog on last day made us pack up and head home early. Will fully recommend cottage. Margaret

  Thank you for your compliments about the cottage and its amenities. The shower is an electric 'power' shower that heats its own water, so that necessarily limits the flow. More generally, the water in the house is heated 24 hours a day, so there is always enough hot water for a bath. Sorry you didn't get good weather on your final day. Property Owner

• "The property is a very high spec, with everything that you could possibly need."

  It was clean and comfortable and in an excellent location, with parking! The owners are very quick to respond to any issues and very keen to rectify asap. Highly Recommended!

  Thanks for the feedback Louise - and thanks for letting us know about the issue immediately, so we could get it sorted for other guests. We hope to be able to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner

• "Cottage is lovely and very well equipped with most things you are likely to need."

  Its has a great central location very close to the harbour and town centre. Access to parking is quite tight especially when cars park close to the entrance to the rear of the property. Cars also park on the street outside the front door. A no parking sign and 24 hour access required at all times being put up on the front of the house could possibly help mitigate this issue

  Thank you Jonathan. We are glad you liked the property and we will consider your suggestion about signage at the front. Parking in the courtyard at the rear is usually fine. It sounds like the guests in no.22 had parked outside their backdoor instead of in their allotted space on the back wall. Property Owner

• "The cottage was very comfortable in every respect, and well equipped for our needs."

  We had no problems with the parking arrangements. There was a minor confusion with the directions given to us. These state: "... Continue straight onto North Street. Towards the bottom of North Street. Turn right onto Union Street and left onto South Street. Braidcarr Cottage is on your right-hand side." This is correct EXCEPT that one shouldn't turn left onto South Street. Fortunately, we eventually realised that the address was 18 UNION STREET so it is not on South Street (!) and if you take a RIGHT turn off Union Street you can reach the parking space behind the property.

  Thanks for your feedback. We are delighted that you liked Braidcarr Cottage. Sorry for the poor directions. I'll message our agents to make sure they update them Property Owner

• "The cottage was excellent , well furnished and equipped, very clean."

  Lovely modern kitchen area and bathroom. A great base for exploring the local area . Getting in to parking area was a bit tricky at first although it was good to have an allocated space. Overall the cottage really made the holiday as the weather wasn't great - a welcoming place to return to after days out.

  Thanks for your feedback. We are pleased that you liked Braidcarr Cottage, but sorry to hear that you didn't have the best weather. Property Owner

• "Lovely property, great location for the harbour and pubs."

  It was so quiet and restful - the bed was very comfy. We loved the wood burner - a novelty for us and very easy to use. We will be back

  Thank you for your kind comments. They are much appreciated. Glad you managed to work the wood burner. It does make it very cosy! Property Owner

• "House was nicely decorated and had a well stocked kitchen."

  Parking was off road so nice and safe. Close to shops, bars and places to eat. House was a little chilly when we were there in March, could have done with being g a little bit warmer.

  Thank you for your lovely comments and feedback. I am sorry the house was chilly on your arrival. It had been unoccupied for a week or two before your arrival so the heating had been on its frost-protection setting. Although it had been switched back on the day before, this may not have been sufficient to fully warm it back up. I have noted this for future guests who arrive after it being unoccupied.

• "Braidcarr Cottage was clean, well lit and well appointed with modern facilities and a good kitchen and bathroom."

  It was spacious with plenty of room, and had a good log burner and television as well as a sonos speaker. It is centrally located a few metres away from an excellent pub and a traditional fishmonger and smokehouse. My wife and I have enjoyed the local area, with the beautiful beaches, castles, restaurants and fascinating history from Bamburgh to Alnwick and out to the Farne Islands and Lindisfarne. We will be back.

  Many thanks for your kind comments. We are pleased you had a lovely time and enjoyed the cottage. Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage and in a great location, within short walking distance of all Seahouses has to offer."

  Court yard garden was a misrepresented as it is really the car parking space so really couldn't sit or eat out there and the bath plug was slow to drain away

  Thank you for your positive comments and the constructive feedback. I agree that the use of the word "garden" is not correct. As a result of your feedback, I have asked Sykes/NCCC to remove the word "garden" from the property description and they have already done so. I have also asked them to check on the other item.

• "Braidcarr Cottage is very well equipped and comfortable."

  It could hardly be better inside. It is located just of the harbour but there are no window views of it. I would certainly stay their again. Seahouses is a great base for a stay on the beautiful coast of Northumbria. The Old Ship is the best pub. The Bamburgh Castle serves decent meals. I recommend The Crafter Arms in Beadnell for atmosphere and great food.

  We are very glad you you enjoyed your stay at Braidcarr Cottage. We have owned the cottage for 20 years and always strive to keep it in great condition. We did a major refurbishment of the living/dining/kitchen area before the 2022 season. Property Owner
