No 4 Armstrong Cottage Isobel Reviews

Catherine
Nice cosy holiday cottage.
Sue
Cottage was in a great location but needs a deep clean to compete with other cottages in the area. On a positive note the beds were comfy. It had a smart TV. Based on other cottages we have stayed in this was a little below par for the star rating. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk: Thank you for your review. Weâ??ve spoken to the owner and the issue has now been resolved.
Nick
Lovely cottage close to beach and short walk to restaurants etc. Property very comfortable, clean and charming.
Samantha
House needs cleaning, updating and some TLC
Paul
Nice cottage in a great location.
Janice
Excellent quality from cutlery to towels comfy bed pillows top notch thankyou
Anna
Gorgeous wee cottage in an insanely great location with lovely wee touches throughout. Super comfy beds and lovely and quiet - a great wee find
Susan
This cottage is ideally situated for exploring the area and has easy access to Bamburgh beach, also a short walk into the village or the Castle. We had a lovely holiday and would come again.
Geoff
A charming cottage with easy access to Bamburgh beach a short walk across the dunes. The bath is too small for adults but will suit younger children. In Bamburgh the Grace Darling museum is a must. If weather suited this can be complemented by a trip from Seahouses to the Farne Isles. Beware Bamburgh itself has very limited food shopping and no paper shop.
Chris
I liked the design of the cottage and the complex itself. Had a neighbourly or community feel to the place without compromising privacy. Beds are super cosy
Christine
A lovely property in a great position. Owner very responsive to a couple of maintenance problems
