Armstrong 7 Reviews

Maris
Wonderful location, especially if you have a dog. Straight onto the dunes and beach. Very quiet but easy to walk into the village to eat in the evening. Plenty of hot water, very clean. Good TV with login options. Beautifully appointed and comfortable but the best part was the comfort of the beds and bedding. Not cheap but worth it
Joan
I enjoyed my stay at 7 Armstrong Cottages. The cottage was comfortable and very well designed with a contemporary feel. It has all the equipment you could need for your stay. My little terrier was fully enclosed safely in the garden and it was only a short walk to the glorious beach. An Alexa was a thoughtful touch.
Wendy
Fantastic location for Bamburgh, beach and walks. Lovely and cosy. Liked Alexa for music.
John
A fantastic property to stay in, great location just a short walk into Bamburgh village and a really high specification of equipment. The welcome hamper was first class with really good quality products, we used them all!! The cottage was really well appointed, a really comfortable mattress on the main bed and everything that you would need for a week away. We will definitely come again in the future.
Dave

Elaine
We were looking for a cottage by the sea that would take a dog and came across Armstrong 7. We were not disappointed, the cottage had absolutely everything you could need and was of a high standard. We felt at home from the minute we walked in and the lovely wood burner soon added to the cosy feeling on the cold night we arrived. For our recently acquired rehome dog, it was perfect with an enclosed garden and minutes from the beautiful beaches. We spend the weekend exploring the area which has so much to enjoy for nature lovers not to mention the historical significance. We will definitely return.
Susan
We had a lovely break it was just what we needed. Great parking a lovely base. The cottage was a real home from home we loved the smart TV and found the cottage really comfortable.
Neil
Really well presented and comfortable base in a superb location , for easy walking access to the beach and Bamburgh.
Elaine
Excellent property and location.
Paul
The location of the cottage is second to none, a short walk into Bamburgh and to the beach directly over the road. The cottage had a lovely homely feel, the beds were extremely comfortable and all the amenities were spot on. We used the cottage as a centre point to visit Beadnell, Craster, Holy Island and other locations. Highly recommend The Potted Lobster and the Victoria Hotel for food and drinks. Plus the local butchers, bakers are great for sausages, steak, pies, & croissants. If you like kippers, thereâ??s a corner shop that sells kipper in a buttered bun, delicious and the food trailer Creel & Reel in the car park opposite the cottage is outstanding. We will be back.
Jeni
2nd time staying at Armstrong cottages. The location is the reason we love this place and really enjoyed our stay.
Abigail
Gorgeous comfortable cottage in a perfect location. Would highly recommend.
Emma
Great family stay the cottage was well equipped and everything was high quality. Fantastic location ideal for walks on the beach or into Bamburgh would highly recommend for any family looking for luxury close to one of the best beaches in the U.K. very dog friendly
Jeffrey
We really enjoyed our stay, the children loved their room. The kitchen set up was great and we were really lucky with the weather. We will most likely visit again.
Carolyn
We have stayed in lots of luxury self catering properties over recent years and this is on par with others visited. Excellent fittings and fixtures with all the kitchen equipment you need. Dunes and the beach right in front of you and a short walk into Bamburgh. However it is extremely expensive compared to other places we have stayed (at least double) and you need to bring tea coffee etc as no welcome pack and all your toiletries.
