The house is in a great seaside village. It was very clean and well equipped and we had a great holiday. BUT the details said there was a dryer, that there was parking on the premises, and that there was a coffee maker. The absence of these items was frustrating as we had packed accordingly. The responses to our enquiries were slow and not very helpful. Also, although included in the description, the request for an additional insurance payment a couple of days before we travelled, surprised us. It did not give us the feel good feeling on arrival.

A good location, although pet friendly and garden were a bit beyond me - a concrete yard is not a garden. The outside tap didn't work despite being an almost beach front location! The house was functional although could do with a few home comforts in the living/dining area - coat hooks, side tables, somewhere to put your bag/things. A clear note abut LACK of parking should be made clear too. House was lovely but a little spartan. Some things like bins weren't in the yard or numbered outside, parking wasn't clear but it was comfy. It would be nice to have a few paper items like maps, restaurants/takeaways etc rather than everything on an app so we could choose together. But functional in every other way. Would definitely stress the ease of beach location more in promo and maybe get the paddleboard/cafe etc on side too as so close. Would recommend.

Clean, neat and spacious property. Had everything one needed for a stay. Very well situated, a short walk to the beach. WiFi worked well. Parking available behind the property. Enjoyed stay👍🏻

Sorry to say this is a pot review. I had messaged them privately to try and get a repose but sadly the was no resolution, only a response from an AI chat bot from what I could gather. Firstly, in the master bedroom, there was a very strong smell of vomit in the corner by the bed. The odor was unbearable, so I had to sleep in my son's room. There were no essential household items such as dishcloths, tea towels, toilet paper, or washing-up liquid. I would not expect to bring these items on holiday with me. Additionally, the house furniture was very disappointing. The master bed was actually quite small, and the furniture downstairs was extremely uncomfortable. The sofa was rock solid. When we arrived, the thermostat was set very high, and all the heaters were on 5, which was very unpleasant on a warm day. Lastly, I find it unreasonable that we had to pay a £30 fee for breakables considering the was nothing to damage. On the plus the beach is glorious and what we paid was fair.

Was absolutely spotless, had all amenities you would need. Beds were comfortable but unfortunately the furniture in the lounge let it down, not at all comfortable especially after a days hiking. I would recommend updating those and then the property would be spot on. Parking was okay at the rear. We were unable to get out of the back gate though as it was blocked by a black car for the duration of our stay.

The spinny green chairs, which seem to have had bad press previously, were wonderfully comfortable!

A comfortable, clean stay in this great home - it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house was immaculately clean, spacious and well presented, within easy reach of local shops and facilities. We had no problem with local street parking. This is the second time we have stayed in Newbiggin - a great place for a base to explore: Amble, Warkworth, Alnwick and Alnmouth. This town is friendly, welcoming and full of charm with a sandy bay.

Lovely house, absolutely spotlessly clean. Fantastic location, 5 minute walk to the beach. Easy access to Newbiggin and main road network for trips out. House was also spacious, with huge rooms. Superbly equipped kitchen. Parking was really easy considering the location. Frustrating admin charge from letting company, but it was as advertised. Living room chairs were not comfortable after day of exploring. Bed mattresses are very soft, but others may find comfortable. We loved our holiday and the house helped us to enjoy it. We wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Stayed at this location for a couple of nights due to being local to family would use again if staying a few days. Parking quite hard to find due to being on main road but other than that good clean place

Nice place - newly refurbished and 2min walk to the beach. Had everything we needed for two nights. Good base. The only minor thing that caused us an issue was that the roller blind in the twin room doesn't fit to the bottom of the window, so light gets in - fine for adults but my 4 year old was awake from 4:45am and found it hard to sleep until dark.

Great location to explore the Northumberland coast. Very much matched the photo’s. Great bathroom. Disappointed with the kitchen utensils, ie no grater, no corkscrew, no casserole dish for the oven.

Newly refurbished house. Pristine inside, close to the beach, good place to base yourself if you are looking for a reasonably priced base for exploring Northumberland to its North. There was an additional £25 cost (for 2 nights) for “damage insurance” to avoid a £250 deposit which I was made aware of and charged after confirming and paying my booking on AirB&B so be prepared for a this. Great base though.

Very lovely simply and stylishly decorated spotless comfortable house. Amazing bathroom. Loved it. Newbiggin is just my type of place too. A very attractive deliciously melancholic working class seaside resort.
