Crumstone Corner

81 Customer Reviews

• "Crumstone corner is a lovely seaside property, well equipped and centrally located with all the amenities needed for a great holiday."

  The generosity of the owners makes you feel very welcome. Even in the winter Seahouses is well worth a visit for beautiful coastal walks, atmospheric pubs and independent local shops.

• "Shower over the bath is faulty,shower is spurting water rather than flowing."

  Bath is a higher bath than we have at home ,so with no handrail on the wall my wife was unable to use the shower for the duration of our stay.(My wife is partially disabled and we have an over the bath shower without a handrail at home which she uses.).

  The property was great. Very clean and so close to amenities! Yes the parking was a bit tight but if you reverse in it's not an issue at all (we have SUV) Will definitely be back and would highly recommend!

• "Apart from a couple of niggles, this was definately home from home, down to owning the same cups and signs !"

  A wonderful gift of prosecco and biscuits on arrival. Niggles first. The main bedroom bed. uncomfortable, Not everybody likes a bed of bricks. Secondly, the shower, The bathroom was fab, loads of hot water, but a very difficult and disappointing shower. There was also a hole in the bathroom door. There was plenty of books to read, with the offer of taking it home if you don't finish it, which we thought was very nice. Games galore for the kids on rainy days, for the older kids (including husbands !) The garage. The entrance to the garage is outside of the property, which can be a bit daunting on darker nights. A kitchen with everything you could wish for. Apart from the washer being in the garage. A set of drawers in the main bedroom would be useful. There was blankets in the footstool for the nippy nights and dvd collection that could rival any shop. All in all we really enjoyed our stay. Definately a home from home and hopefully will be back soon ! Thank you for a fabulous few days !

• "I have had a lovely stay at this property, it was extremely comfortable and very well equipped."

  The position of the property is excellent, being close to everything in the centre of Seahouses. My only disappointment was the parking, and I note this has been mentioned before. The parking space is at the back of the property and with the shop workers parking in the alleyway it made it extremely tight trying to get into the parking space, for a nervous parker (myself, unfortunately), it did cause some concern and we used to delay getting back to the cottage to ensure the parked car would be gone. This concern aside, we had a lovely week away.

• "A fantastic cottage in a great location."

  Despite being so close to the high street in Seahouses, it was very quiet. The large collection of books and games for all ages was a welcome addition and the games room was fab. Although we had good weather during our stay, we still made use of the games room most days. The cottage is very well equipped and it’s clear that the owners really want their guests to have a relaxing stay, as they have thought of everything! The welcome pack was a lovely touch. We would definitely stay here again, as we felt very much at home.

• "Very clean and comfortable house with the games room as a bonus."

  There was everything we could possibly need. It was in a very convenient situation for the facilities in the town,and also places further afield. The folder of places to visit was useful and very comprehensive. The only problem was that there were no instructions about how to use the grill and oven, we managed to work out the oven but not the grill. Overall a really pleasant stay.

• "A lovely stay in a lovely property!"

  The welcome Prosecco and biscuits were a nice touch but even more appreciated was the fresh milk and tea bags on arrival! The property is really well appointed and had absolutely everything required, with a superb level of cleanliness. The main bedroom mattress was not terribly comfortable but I think that could be personal preference. The shower is also a little disappointing. Parking is a tad tricky for a large car. However, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely property in an excellent location and loved watching the birds come to roost in the hedge of an evening. Would highly recommend. Thank you!

  Prosecco and biscuits provided went down a treat. The issue we had with us loosing the cottage keys was quickly resolved by the lovely owners. (we had a new set cut) Parking at the rear was provided but was a bit awkward at times due to the small wall and workers at the adjacent cafe parking behind the cafe. Lovely and close to the pubs/cafes and of course the habourside Friendly neighbours.

  It is in a very good position, convenient for shops and the harbour (only a short walk away). There is everything provided for a comfortable stay. The only slight criticism would be that the front garden felt overgrown and did not look like the picture online, and parking was a bit tight.

  We didn't cook so can't comment on how good the cooking facilities were. There are a good selection of eating places in the centre. Good location for Seahouses and driving to locations up and down the coast. Parking is sometimes a bit tight at Crumstone but is manageable. The area of land at the front of the property isn't as big as the picture might suggest. Overall though a good choice.

  Well equipped for a self catering holiday. Fresh milk in the fridge on arrival, as well as tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits and wine is a nice touch. The house is literally round the corner from the harbour, pubs and shops of this lovely seaside town. Reserved off road parking on the drive at the rear of the property is very useful. Good base to explore Holy Island, Berwick, Bamburgh and Alnwick with lots of other lovely seaside places such as Beadnell only a few minutes drive. The house is well furnished throughout and very comfortable. Good sized TV with DVD (good variety of family DVDs) , good WiFi and even an Amazon Alexa. We had a perfect week's stay. We would stay here again and have already recommended to friends and family.

  The property is very well-equipped and nicely furnished. The bathroom has been updated since the photographs on the website were taken. It's close to all amenities in Seahouses and has a sea view out of the front bedroom window. It wasn't a problem for us as we didn't use it, but the door to the twin bedroom couldn't be closed as one of the beds was in the way. Apart from that, we would definitely recommend a stay at Crumstone Corner.

  Thank you for your lovely comments. Just to clarify the twin bedroom door can be closed but the bed has to be moved right up against the wall. Property Owner

  Firstly it's location. It is a short 2 minute walk from the main Street which has shops and restaurants etc. The harbour is also a 2 minute walk . I would say this is one of the best properties we have stayed at. It is very well kept, and very clean. The owners have put alot of thought in to meeting the needs of all the family. There are DVDs for all ages, games and puzzles for all ages and an amazing games room in the garage. The kitchen equipment is high quality and very well stocked. It is a home from home!

  The house was extremely clean. It had everything we needed. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The cupboards were full of lots of extras including tea/coffee, washing up liquid, foil etc. We even had milk, cookies and prosecco to welcome us. There were lots of DVDs, games and books available. The garage had a pool table, air hockey, table tennis, dart board etc. The bedrooms had lovely clean bed linen and towels. The double mattress was firm and the twin mattresses were soft. I think the beds are new since pictures were taken. They are now wooden in the twin bedroom. The shower was nice with lots of little shower gels/bubble bath to use. The only thing I would mention is that when the toilet is flushed, it makes a loud noise coming from the cupboard on the landing which could potentially wake you up in the night. The curtains aren't completely black out and the seagulls are quite noisy early in the mornings. Apart from that, we would definitely stay here again.

  The parking space is convenient, but made difficult to use by the proximity of large industrial bins at the rear of nearby shops and sometime inconsiderate parking of others. The bathroom would benefit from having a mirror above the sink and a new bath mat. There was sufficient cutlery and china, but some sharp kitchen knives would have been appreciated. My wife would have liked a small table in the bedroom on which to put creams, brushes etc. The windowsill is not the ideal place to keep such things. All the above said, we would have awarded 4.5 stars if they were available. We would happily go again.
