Ckean, modern cottage with every facility you could want including comfy beds and great showers. The cottage is in a lovely tranquil settling of trees with the sound of a brook very close. Its convenient for all the popular places to visit. Bamburgh castle, Seahouses, Berwick and lots of loved local villages. The only small niggle i had was that we have stayed in many vrbo properties and generally found the hosts to be welcoming abd friendly. The hosts of this cottage seemed very efficient but a bit distant but perhaps thats the difference between individual hosts and a business host.
