Heather Cottages - Grey Seal Reviews

Absolutely loved staying here. Such a beautiful place, the beach is very accessible and clear walkways. Very comfortable cottage with plenty of space. The enclosed garden was great for the dog and the hamper was very much appreciated. Hot tub is well positioned to give you privacy and out the wind. We will definitely be back.
Stephen
A perfect place only issue was the double bed and quilt to small Cleaniness ... A perfect place only issue was the double bed and quilt to small Cleaniness was outstanding and accommodation was perfect apart from the one issue which did not spoil our break
Jonathan
The property was as described in the most fantastic spot. Clearly the property is well used and as such has become in need of a little cosmetic maintenance. The kitchen particularly the appliances require looking at, squeaking floorboards in the upstairs bedrooms, toilet seats were loose, the leather sofa seats had all collapsed and werent comfy in the lounge. Pillows werent great in the bedrooms, door onto the garden was still and needs adjustingthere are a lot of other minor things that are easy fixes to make this property fantastic
Location was ideal & as portrayed but the accommodation was rundown and basic with no frills. The hot tub was extra and paid for with the booking but it did not reach correct temperature for over 24 hours so although paid for 3 days hire of hot tub use was actually only one evening and early morning. Advertised as dog friendly but not even a dog drinking dish provided. We arrived at 3.35 and were informed by a male who refused to identify himself that we could use the public beach until 4pm exactly.
Steven
The cottage location was excellent straight onto the beach! Ideal for walking our dog. Coastal views & path to Bamburgh & beyond. Spacious & roomy accommodation with more facilities than we needed. The maintenance team were quick to respond to a couple of minor issues. Would definitely stay again!
Location,locaction,location,This was the ideal holiday stay for us this year. The Cottage is literally right on The Beach very very spacious and three bathrooms to boot wow.The view of Holy Island could not be beaten,very quiet and secluded just what we wanted.
The property was excellent location, breathtaking views across Budle Bay. The accommodation was clean and well equipped to cater for all the occasions you could think of. Being only a ten minute drive from the A1 it is a great place to base your stay for those that like to adventure out to other places. But seriously, you could just stay and chill all week here.
Fantastic location, property was lacking nothing.
Lovely well equipped property. Great location. Will be going back. Apple Core restaurant good value.
