"We had an amazing stay."
Cottage was very clean, great facilities and welcome pack was a lovely touch. Lovely outdoor space to sit, dry wetsuits and have the dog out. Only small negative was the extremely small microwave for family of six. But loved the air fryer!!

"Great location, well equipped, comfortable beds and sofas."
Just needs a little tlc as kitchen floor is lifting slightly. Good garden for our dogs too. Didnt find the book store until last day but didn't need it. Would book this bungalow again. Seahouses had some good eating places.

"My friend and I thought this was an excellent property for our purposes."
We liked that it was situated on a quiet street with its own private parking that was easy to get into and out of since there wasn't a lot of traffic. It was very comfortable and convenient with one or two exceptions. As older visitors, we found the couch to be very difficult to get up from and the tub/shower combo difficult to climb into, but that probably wouldn't bother most people, and there was a large walk-in shower available. It is a large property and though we only used two of the three bedrooms, larger groups would have plenty of room to spread out. We spend several minutes trying to locate the cutlery which is secreted in a drawer inside the cooking utensils drawer beneath the cooktop, a configuration we hadn't encountered before, but once we'd overcome that difficulty, we had everything we could need for meals at home. We appreciated that we were within easy walking distance of Main Street, approximately 10 minutes or less from the harbor area and with several good restaurants, takeaways, and chippies within easy reach. The co-op has the usual necessities and there is a butcher close by, though you would need to go further afield to find a good selection of groceries. Nearby Bamburg has a good butchers with prepared meals on offer. We liked being within easy reach of day trips to St Abb's Head, Alnwick, Warkworth, Cragside, Hadrian's Wall, Belsay Hall, etc. We wouldn't hesitate to rent this property again and highly recommend it to others.

"Beds really comfy altho only used one."
Location excellent. Front window very dirty and very clear to see as south facing. General cleanliness ok but skirting boards and hidden areas very dusty. Lino in kitchen needs changing as very tired and lumpy. Did enjoy our stay though and everything worked fine. Nice touch with easter eggs.

"The property was clean, spacious and comfortable."
The kitchen was well equipped and the garden was a pleasant space- and very useful as we have dogs. The location was great, both for using the facilities in Seahouses and ease of exploring further.
A downside was the EV charging. This was only an external 3-pin plug, which is totally unsuitable for anyone with a full EV. We booked this property partly for this facility and we were disappointed that the property was advertised as having EV charging, when in effect it doesn’t. Hopefully Northumbria Cottages/Sykes will in the future provide more detailed information on charging facilities, to avoid this disappointment and inconvenience.

"We have stayed in many holiday homes all over northern England and have to say this is Number 1."
Based on how clean, comfortable, easy to warm and quiet the place was. Every possible thing we could want for was there. The safe garden for our two dogs was invaluable. The garden would be lovely in the summer months. Parking for 2 cars and lots of room. Bed linen and towels scrupulously clean and fresh.
It is only a 5 minute walk to the shops/take-aways/bars/seafront, and approximately 3 mile one way to Bamburgh up the lovely beach.
I would particularly like to thank the owner for their very generous welcome pack - it really started our two families off superbly on what was a truly great short break. Thank you.

"Our second Christmas stay at Southfield Lodge."
The cottage has everything you could wish for in the kitchen and comfortability. Brilliant secure garden for our 2 dogs. The Christmas Hamper was a pleasant surprise. We are regular visitors to this area. We would have loved to book again for next Christmas, but someone has already beaton us to it.

"Cottage was clean, well equipped and comfortable."
In a good position with parking & a secure garden. Only negative was arriving on a cold dark Friday afternoon to a bitterly cold property. None of the heaters had been left on, all were switched off at the walls. It took until next morning to get the place warm, a shame as it was the only let down.

"Beautiful bungalow that’s within walking distance of all the facilities Seahouses has to offer."
Dog friendly with a secure garden too. Great base for exploring Northumberland. The Bamburgh Castle Inn was ideal as it allows dogs in & has sea views, we had a breakfast & evening meal there. Our Easter visit was the perfect time for us, I can imagine the area being very busy during summer.

"We took our two teenage grandchildren to stay at Southfield Lodge in February half term and had a wonderful week."
The bungalow was perfect for us and had a well equipped kitchen/dining room with patio doors leading onto an enclosed garden which was ideal for our dogs. The off road parking was a bonus for us as many of the properties we have stayed in previously have only had roadside parking. The bungalow was in a nice street and was in walking distance of shops, restaurants and the harbour. We would definitely recommend this property and hope to make a return visit later this year. Kind regards Ruth & Pete
