Budle Sands Reviews

Our family of seven spent Christmas week at this beautiful property. It is in a great location just outside of Bamburgh which has lovely pubs, restaurant, butchers and deli. The Aga took some getting used to as there was no instruction manual. I would definitely recommend this property to other families.

The cottage was as described, lovely and clean with all the kitchen appliances we required for our week's stay. Our only regret was there wasn't a shower facility in the upstairs bathroom, as we all took showers rather then baths so the downstairs shower room was busy. We experienced a problem with the downstairs toilet constantly flushingoverflow but was quickly fixed following a call to the company. The cottage location was lovely, and we experienced an awesome sunset on our last day.

Absolutely lovely house and secure garden which was just perfect for our labradors and us Plenty of space, home from home kitchen with every utensil and cooking implement you could want. Bathrooms were great, plenty of hot water at all times of the day, beds and bedding were extremely comfortable. Thank you also for the prompt help from Sykes, Northumberland Coastal Cottages and the lovely guy who came out, when the lock broke. Within an hour we were back in the house, everyone couldnt have helped us more. And Mike suggested a great walk for the dogs the next day!!! Overall fir our first but not last visit to Northumberland a fantastic week in an amazing location and house. Thank you.

We couldnt really fault the lovely house and garden. Everything was clean and well prepared and the walled garden was lovely to sit out in and safe for the dog. A beautiful area for walking and enjoying the gorgeous Northumbrian coast and countryside.

Lovely cottage in a stunning location. Access to the beach for the dog is easy and within a 5 minute walk, but theyre restrictions at the moment due to nesting birds April so we went down to Bamburgh beach where there isnt any. Would love to return, shame we could not stop longer.

Location is fantastic and the property itself was even better than in the pictures. It had everything you needed to make it home from home. The kitchen was fab and had every appliance you needed to make family meals. Couldnt ask for anything more!

Excellent standard overall, ideally located, henry hoover provided works but the attachments are not the right size

The house was beautiful, exactly as described and shown in pictures. We booked Budle Sands as a suprise holiday for our parents 60th anniversary and for a family of 8 it was perfect with large living spaces for playing games with the children and a fully enclosed garden for the dogs

Amazing property, the accommodation was high spec, perfect for our group. Plenty of space, weather was brilliant, excellent location. Would highly recommend

Absolutely delightful property with high class white goods unusual in my experience! . The decor was gorgeous, particularly in the kitchen. We'd love to return, possibly with friends as there were only the 2 of us plus dogs to fill the house up. Couple of things, a pair of Aga gauntlets would be much better than the oven gloves provided heat protection and length of gauntlet for protection, plus we had a few issues with the lock on the main door not reported as it seemed to occur more over the weekend and then we left on the Mon.

Beautiful house in a fantastic location. The WiFi code was wrong but a quick phone call resolved the issue. Loved the Aga oven it was so easy to use. Would definitely recommend

The drainage was blocked, it ruined our stay, so we had to leave early cutting of family holiday short.

A Lovely Cottage with Some Disappointments Rating I recently had the pleasure of staying at 10 Budle Sands Cottage and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The cottage itself is charming and has a lot of potential to be a perfect holiday retreat. However, there were a few disappointments that prevented it from being a truly exceptional stay. Let's start with the positives. The cottage itself is lovely, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The interior design is tasteful and the furnishings are comfortable. The rooms are wellappointed and provide a comfortable space to relax and unwind. The location is also fantastic, with beautiful views and easy access to nearby attractions. However, there were a few issues that detracted from the overall experience. Firstly, the lack of basic amenities such as toilet rolls and tea towels was quite surprising. These are essentials that one would expect to be provided in a holiday rental, and it was inconvenient to have to purchase them ourselves. Additionally, the inadequate supply of cleaning products made it difficult to maintain cleanliness throughout our stay. The outside grey bin being already half filled with rubbish meant we had to find somewhere to dispose of our rubbish on our way home! Another disappointment was the lack of Christmas decorations. We had booked the cottage during the holiday season with the expectation of a festive atmosphere. I had contacted the booking company to ansk if the cottage was going to be decorated annd was told it would be! Unfortunately, there were no decorations or festive touches, which was a letdown. Despite these shortcomings, I must commend the cottage for its potential. With a little more attention to detail and ensuring that basic amenities are provided, this could be a truly exceptional holiday destination. In conclusion, 10 Budle Sands Cottage has the makings of a wonderful holiday retreat. The cottage itself is lovely and the location is fantastic. However, the lack of basic amenities, inadequate cleaning products, including washing powder for the washing machine and the absence of Christmas decorations were disappointing. With some improvements, this cottage has the potential to be a standout choice for a holiday getaway. Disclaimer This review is based on my personal experience and opinions may vary.

This house is beautiful to live in. Lovely enclosed garden, spacious kitchendining area. Aga takes a bit of working out but you enjoy it when you have mastered it. Beds comfortable and bedding perfect for the temperature. Very handy utility room. Towels were fluffy and great quality. Location good for Bamburgh. Lots of public footpaths to walk safely there or the option to take a beautiful stroll along the beach to the castle. There is also a bus stop just over the road The dishwasher sometimes filled with water after using, but it didnt hinder us and probably is easily fixed. The local residents were so friendly. We had a wonderful stay and perfect for our family ranging from 11 months to late 60s. Extra care is needed on the staircase and a stair gate if children are younger.

Just Wow. The cottage is incredible. It's fantastically spacious, beautifully appointed and the additional touches such as welcome cleaning pack, bottle of wine and biscuits were a lovely touch. The location of the cottage is superb being just a few minutes walk from a beautiful beach. We did have an issue with the dishwasher on the first night so phoned Northumbria Cottages on the Saturday morning and a chap was out fixing it within 2 hours could not have asked for any more.

Lovely place. Great location. The cottage is lovely. Being new to an Aga it takes a bit of getting used to. But easy enough to figure out. The hot oven isnt hot enough in my opinion. The grass was very long, apart from looking untidy it makes it more difficult for a toddler to wander around. A few shelves in the showers for shower gel etc would be handy. But overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend to friends and family.

Weve stayed here a couple of times now and I can honestly say its such a lovely place the beds are so comfortable and fantastic quality bedding which makes a huge difference to a good nights sleep! Its surroundings make it an ideal base for exploring Northumberland.

A superbly furnished cottage that was extremely comfortable and well cared for. Excellent location.

Great location, very spacious and clean property, quite well fitted out. Information pack gave us lots of additional ideas of places to visit even tho we have had several holidays in the area.

Wonderful cottage well kitted out with high end, quality fittings. Excellent location. Plenty of space for 2 families. Would definitely return.

Budle Sands is in a lovely setting, with a glorious beach being in walking distance. The property is wellmaintained, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our week here and found the staff at Northumbria Coast and Country very helpful.

A comfortable warm house, well kitted out. Quiet and peaceful.

Beautifully appointed house in a great location for views and beach walks.

Excellent property with excellent facilities. Little extras such as kitchen roll, washing liquid, torch all really useful. Fabulous and spacious with fab kitchen and Aga. Would definitely stay here again.

High quality accommodation, within walking distance of Bamburgh.

We found everything about the property first class and all equipment of the highest standard. Would recommend to friends.

We were a mixed group of ages, ranging from young children to mature adults. This property was well suited to everyone&39s needs and we were very impressed with the standard and quality of the property. It really is a beautiful property in a great location for first time explorers to the Northumberland coastline.
