    The Television which is a smart tv the same as our own at home offered nothing except BBC channels which the owner was aware off as I spoke to her on the phone. This was quite dissapointing as after being out walking and sightseeing all day it would be nice to have the choice of some television in the evening. I think this should be addressed as soon as possible.

    The cottage was great and the location near the beach was ideal. It was very well equipped for our weeks holiday to Spittal. We found the local people very friendly when we were out and about.

    The tv I couldn’t find a lot of channels and the overflow on the bath needs attention , but please be sure this is minor , didn’t reflect on our holiday at all

    The location was absolutely brilliant ,the beautiful beach was only 30 mts away from the front door , the cottage exceeded our expectations , very cosy indeed , very clean and well equipped throughout , the building itself is very eye catching and beautifully restored , we will most likely come again one day ,

    No direct access to the garden from the cottage, required to go into lane first. Minor point which didn't cause difficulty though.

    Location is 50 yards from the beach Clean and tidy Good local information available

    The oven! All temperatures had worn off the switches, so guess work to use.

    Beautiful, interesting cottage - very close to the beach - cosy and comfortable. Only 25mins walk into Berwick on Tweed, and lots of lovely walks along the coastal path.

    The shower cubicle needs a good clean. The cooker needs a good clean, didn't use it. The entrance door is sticking, we had to contact the owner for the key safe number as the wrong one supplied by Booking. Co.

    The location was excellent.

    Self catering, but a lovely welcome pack of a few goodies when we arrived - very thoughtful and much appreciated. For us - my partner and our Basset - the cottage was perfect and just a very short stroll from a lovely beach. The cottage was clean and superbly comfortable - all on one level. I would recommend to anyone who just wants a quiet location within an environment to decompress - just what we all needed.

    Would of been nice to have access to the yard at back of the apartment via the apartment, not having to walk around the outside in the street. Having to strip the beds and bag it up at end of stay especially when you have to leave by 10am. Have never had to do this anywhere we have stayed before. This however, would not stop us recommending it or us staying again.

    There was nothing not to like. We had everything we needed to have a wonder comfortable stay. The apartment was right near the beach. We were able to stay with our dog. The bathroom had a great shower and bath, the bed was comfortable. Kitchen is well equipped and appliances easy to use. Apartment is close to other areas to visit and Berwick upon Tweed a lovely town to visit.

    The last bus to catch was before 7:pm. If you miss it you have to take a taxi or walk which is not convenient.
