3 St. Cuthberts Garth Reviews

Lovely cottage in a superb location. Had everything we needed including a spacious kitchen. Bed really comfortable although the window could do with a latch because it blew wide open all the time. Garden was a real bonus especially for our dog who was also fascinated with the rabbits. Sofas not particularly comfortable so perhaps time for new ones. Overall we had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back.
Lovely cottage but a couple of issues. There was no information pack about the house, just a couple of sheets on recycling and bin collection. As mentioned in other reviews there were no instructions for the tricky hob nor for heating. The parking was very tricky maybe because it was the end of half term and the listing comment of park on the grass was only suitable for vehicles with enough ground clearance.
The cottage was beautiful and perfect for a group of 4 friends, their bikes and two dogs. Lovely and spacious with a great secure garden for the dogs. Some instructions on how to turn the hob on would have been helpful but I You Tubed it. I did ask for one of the double beds to be split into two singles which didn't happen, but we coped.
Excellent week location. Perfect for touring around Northumberland. Nice places to eat close by. Would definitely recommend. Bamburgh was very busy the first few days of our stay as it was Easter weekend. Parking can be a bit of a problem when busy.
This lovely cottage in the heart of Bamburgh, is deceptively spacious, whilst maintaining a cosy feel. The beds are very comfortable and it is well equipped with great outdoor space. To make it a little better it would be good to have some cupboard space left vacant for groceries and the WiFi password needs to be more accessible.
Lovely stay and property. Very clean and comfortable. Well equipped with everything you need. Lovely garden and wild life. Fantastic location!! We will be back.

Nice cottage, location very good
Pamela
Great location, comfortable bed, lovely kitchen. Garden area needed some maintenance
Lovely accommodation in a peaceful location in the heart of the village. No DVD player as advertised, and the lock on the en suite in the master bedroom was broken. Other than that we were delighted to stay there and would visit again.
A beautiful cottage which seems to have been completely renovated very recently. The cottage was furnished and equipped to a high standard however it would have been useful to have towel hooks in the bathrooms. Our only criticism of the presentation of the cottage was the very dirty window in the main bedroom which we had to clean. Other than that the cottage was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We have been going to this property for several years and love the location and the cottage itself. ...............only problem this time, like last year, we had to clean the outside table which was full of pigeon droppings!!!! apart from that all was lovely as usual.
Denise
We stayed last year at the same time so returned again as enjoyed our stay and location amazing. Sunday lunch at the hotel around the corner was absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately there are two sofas 4 adults staying and one sofa is too small so we alternated but rested sometimes on the bed after our walks . This has ensured that we book somewhere else next year .
Belinda
We initially had problems opening the key box but after I called the mobile number given, 2 lovely ladies came and assisted along with 2 workmen and the next door neighbour! The property was spotless and we were very impressed with the place. Superb location.
Absolutely incredible little find, a hidden gem! This place has everything you need, feels so welcoming & lovely! Will 100000 be returning for future get aways
Christopher
Another great stay at this cottage. First time since refurbishment and its lovely. Just a few bits of decoration needing touching up. But this did not affect the great time we had at 3 St Cuthberts Garth.
Carole
The cottage was modern, light, and spacious. Furnishings, decor and layout beautiful. Kitchen very well designed, with high quality crockery, cutlery and glassware. Halogen hob difficult to figure out as no instructions provided.The bathrooms were very well appointed, and everywhere lovely and clean. The gardens were fully enclosed and secure even for our small dog, which is a bonus. Parking a bit tricky, but managed fine all week. Welcome pack of tea, coffee, sugar, milk, biscuits and wine a very nice touch. Highly recommended
We have been coming to this cottage for quite a while now and love the location and the comfort of it. hopefully we will be back next year. A couple of points though, one of the radiators in the kitchen we couldn't get going, the toilet in the ensuite had a loose seat. The blind on the door to the garden wasn't working, but apart from that everything else was fine.
Jennifer
We had a lovely two weeks starving here and have already booked our next stay. The location is perfect for a young family like ours. Close to the beach and local amenities. A lovely big garden for our boys to play in with the dog safely only slight downside to us was the WiFi. Not good at all and we did contact the people looking after us and it didnt improve but hey ho we tried.

The owners need to check the property after it supposedly been cleaned and ... The owners need to check the property after it supposedly been cleaned and damaged items also check everything works before the new guests alot of lack of communication between them the windows are filthy you open the double glazed doors and look at the frame work never been cleaned the Pyrex dishes in the kitchen cupboards obviously been cleaned in the dishwasher all stains and smears on the glass hate to think how you live
The boiler wasnt working on arrival, had to use Emerson heater for hot water for shower. Reported defect plumbers attended the following day couldnt fix needed parts, informed us they had attended property the previous week for same problems. We were told to leave Emerson heater on for hot water, this then broke two days later leaving no hot water, once reported it was repaired the same day. No heating was available all week which meant the cottage was cold as temperatures dropped to single figures all week . There were no instructions for how to use the hob. On our last night Thursday 13th June, we were woken around midnight the next door neighbour had music on very loud, banging doors, shouting, this continued until 3 o clock Friday morning, these neighbours are the people who I presume live there not the other side as that was a holiday rental too. We didnt get much sleep that night and were driving home that morning which was a 6 hour drive after not much sleep.
Overall, one of the best properties we've stayed in. Well located, Bamburgh is small so you're always close to everything, 1015 minute walk to the fabulous beach, excellent facilities and a brilliant enclosed garden which is perfect for the dog. The only minor issues we raised were dealt with immediately by the management company and were due to a lack of information to be honest. There were no instructions for the cooker hob, the wifi code is in the back bedroom under the router but there's nothing to tell you that. We struggled with a lack of hot water for the four days, again there was no information about the heatingwater system. Minor issues which are easily rectified and I'm sure will be. Not many places we'd go back to but this is definitely one of them.
This is a well equipped cottage with excellent facilities. Everthing is there for you.A welcome milk and white wine was great.Tea coffee sugar plus a cafetiere.There is a very safe dog proof garden for pups which is completely enclosed.The wheelie bins are in the entrance by the fence but difficult to get to as hidden under bushes.Garden furniture could be updated as a bit uncomfy for long sits.Maybe a teapot for us tea lovers! Beds are huge and quite high if you're vertically challenged but very clean and comfy.Bedrooms are small but adequate with tiny wardrobes,so keep in mind if you don't mind keeping your clothes in a case.The cottage is well situated for Bamburgh village and easy to walk to beach.Parking can be limited at busy times so it's first come first served.Great place to relax and staff very helpful.
Lovely cottage & in an area which was accessible to main tourist areas, Bamburgh is a beautiful village & it was very relaxing. The cottage was lovely, parking could be an issue as there are very limited spaces to park & not on the grass like advised. The heating kept the cottage too warm, Im use to hive but it was a pain trying to stop it coming on. Would be better if it was set to off & let customers boost at a temp which owner can control.
Beverley
We loved the cottage, lots more space than expected, perfect for the dogs, and most of all it was super clean.
Angela
We had a lovely few days in the cottage which is bright, clean and very well equipped.
Patricia
Beautiful home really comfortable. Clean and in good distance to all amenities. Loved our stay. The only thing I would suggest is to have a folder with instructions on how to use the hob and heating I couldn't find anything in your box and I use a gas hob so not familiar with electric. This was my only struggle.
Joanne
Lovely clean, well equipped, comfortable cottage in great location. Would loved to have stayed longer.
Anthony
THIS IS A LOVELY HOUSE. VERY WELL REFURBISHED WITH ALL OF THE AMENITIES YOU COULD WISH FOR. IT'S TASTEFULLY DECORATED AND VERY WELL APPOINTED. WE HAD A GREAT STAY
Would have been helpful to have had spare bin bags for the kitchen bin. Refuse collection was on Wednesday and there was not a replacement liner to use. Would also be good to have hooks behind the bedroom doors to hang such as dressing gowns.
Great place and location. Everything you could need in the kitchen. Lovely out door space and furniture. Bathroom and onsuite were loverly bedrooms comfortably and nicely furnished. Only problem's were the parking but we managed, that is mentioned in the details. Tap in kitchen needs slight adjustment but nothing really to complain about .
Shirley
Excellent holiday home. Its well equipped in every way. We expected steep stairs to the bedrooms, it being a cottage, but they were very easily climbed by us older people. The cottage is very well situated, just a few minutes walk from the village and its amenities. Would recommend it every time.
Very good property and location.
The place has been recently refurbished to a high standard. As an electrician, Im quite critical and have noted some very minor items. 2 x Toilet roll holders need refixing, main bathroom toilet needs refixiing. Probably wants a spacer on the wall Both are very simple jobs and did not affect our stay what so ever. Outside the property needs a little work also. A gardener is needed here. Grass cutting before each stay in the summer is a must! As its dog friendly, poo is difficult to see in long grass. Front gate needed a screw in the catch, not a tyrap round it. I put a screw in Overgrown roses prevented us from entering safely I cut them back a little generally, garden needs attention all over, particularly around path and bins area. Gate at front to left hand side garden needs repairing. There is a rotary line stood up the wall, but after a furtle in the grass, I think the hole has been blocked up? IE. A washing line needed. I dont like 7 nights in the same sheets anywhere. Freezer top draw front is broken and falls off. I applied some sticks like . and its now fixed. May fall off again? As I said, Im a tradesman and can be quite critical, but after the cost and effort of the refurbishment, why not address these minor points and make it spot on. Location is amazing too. Shops, restaurants and pubs around the corner, castle and beach 5 min stroll away. Perfect! Ps. Bedpillows not to our liking, but thats personal choice. The linen had had its day, Seemed worn out, spotlessly clean, but needs replacing. I like crisp cotton linen at home and on my hols please. Would I stay here again. Of course I would. Great place. Hope this is helpful and not just someone moaning fir the sake of it.
Very nice holiday cottage. Well furnished and equipped and in a good location for Bamburgh shops and pubs beach and the castle. Highly recommend
Our stay was fabulous, it delivered everything stated on the website and more. Refurbishment is beautiful. We would definitely return. As a nit pick to offer improvements trim the trees to gain better access to the bins.
