Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the apartment to be spotlessly clean. However, one guest mentioned uncertainty about the cleanliness of the linen upon arrival, which suggests a slight room for improvement in the presentation of the property.
The location is highly praised for its amazing views and proximity to local sights such as Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, and Seahouses. It is considered perfect for walking, sightseeing, and wildlife observation. However, one guest noted the distance to the nearest pub and the lack of a security light, which slightly affects the score.
Guests generally regard the property as comfortable and well-equipped, with special mentions of the beds and duvets. However, there were comments about a lack of windows in the living room and a small kitchen sofa, indicating that some areas could be cosier.
Facilities are deemed adequate for cooking and the property is well-equipped, including thoughtful touches like dog bowls. Some guests, however, experienced issues with phone signal and security lighting, and one reported a distressing incident with a resident, suggesting that some aspects of the property could be better maintained.
While guests have mentioned a generous welcome pack, there are not enough reviews discussing gifts to accurately assess the level of thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed.
