Lovely cottage- so well equipped! We haven’t enjoyed a cottage as much as this one- we loved reading under blankets on the sofa after a long day out. Perfect location for us. Beds and towel provision surpassed expectations. Lovely little touches like some coffe/ tea/ milk and ice! Thank you! Will be back!

Mr Davison, January 2020

We had a wonderful stay at fisherman’s cottage! The booking process provided by Sykes cottage was very easy and efficient and we were provided all the information we needed before our stay. The cottage was lovely, very cosy and had everything we needed.

Mr Holland

March 2019

Lovely ,homely cottage in centre of village .. Thoughtful welcome pack ,flowers and spotlessly clean ,what more could you want .Parking permits while not used by us very helpful

Miss Bamber

The accommodation was clean, comfy, warm and well equipped.. Good location, close to shops, pubs, beach etc. No parking outside property, but available not far away and the permit meant we didn't need to pay for parking in other places. Several phone calls to Sykes cottages, they apparently needed my email address. I gave it to 3 different people on 3 separate occasions. I didn't actually get sent any information until the third phone call when the chap I spoke to was very helpful.

Mrs Baker

December 2018

Very comfortable cottage, close to the harbour.. Very clean and well kept, with all the facilities that you would require for your break.

Mrs Sykes

November 2018

The cottage was cosy, comfortable and clean.. The coffee ,tea biscuits and fresh flowers a lovely welcome. We were able to leave our car at the back of the cottage as a kind neighbour told us the adjacent cottage was unoccupied that week.The beds were very comfortable,this is not always the case in holiday rentals.

Mrs Pease

September 2018

Great cottage ,well stocked ,very clean and comfortable .. A welcome pack of tea ,coffee, milk , sugar and biscuits was appreciated as was a lovely jug of roses ,what a nice touch ! Brilliant location,near the harbour ,pubs and Hotels ,who all serve excellent food and drinks .A parking permit for one car in the main car park was very good as double yellow lines outside the cottage and in most of the streets .An excellent base for seeing the local area .Thoroughly enjoyed our week !

Mr Mitchell

July 2018

Had a lovely holiday in fishermans cottage.. It's in a good place for the shops pubs and restaurants. We had lovely weather which was also great. Would stay in the cottage again. It was immaculately clean and the beds were lovely and comfortable.

Mr Cameron

Alli B

May 2018

Stayed for 1 night. 3 bedrooms, very spacious lounge & kitchen with all utensils you may need. Would definitely revisit. A short walk away from the harbour but very quiet & peaceful in the cottage. I booked via booking.com however sykes were not reliable in sending key code. I rang 5 times until I finally got it.

Seahouses was a lovely place and so were the villages and islands near it ,the .... Seahouses was a lovely place and so were the villages and islands near it ,the cottage was a nice cottage but no garden at all and we kept the kitchen curtains closed because there were houses behind us so close,the parking was horrendous it was double yellow lines everywhere,we were told parking was nearby but it wasn’t it was a car park in the town because everyone else had all the spaces, cottage needs painting and new lounge carpet and sofas

Mr Hallas

The biggest issue with this property is the parking.. Every other Cottage in this row have parking and we had to park in the town centre and pay an extra £49 for the privilege. On rainy days you were wet through before you set off for a day out, and got wet again on return. The Cottage itself was fine.

Mr Edwards

April 2018

Everything we had a great time

Mr Rushton

March 2018

Really nice warm cottage in a good location

Miss Hollland

Very easy booking procedure,cottage and associated facilities exactly as described.. Would and have recommended to friends.

Mr Bailey

February 2018

Great cottage, close to town and the coast the only "issue" is lack of parking at the cottage but it is only a 5 min walk to the main carpark , rate £3.. 50 per day. Clean, very comfortable , everything we needed for a great break.

Mrs Wingrove

July 2017

Located close to the harbour.. Lovely cottage kitted out with everything you could possibly need. Would book again .

Mrs Brennan

Perfect location..

August 2016

A lovely cottage, great accommodation sleeping 6 comfortably. Everything was available but a shame the dishwasher wasn't working and the washing machine was quite old (took about 6 to 8 hours to dry the clothes in the tumble dryer.) However, the close proximity to the sea (2 min walk) outweighed these things and it was lovely to wander down every day to the harbour or across the golf links to a beautiful bay, usually deserted. Great for kids - rock pooling was amazing and the boat trip to the Farne Islands is a must. The one draw back of the cottage is that there is no parking. (double yellow lines everywhere). The suggestion is to use the town pay and display carpark and buy a weekly pass, but we discovered they don't do this any more so the daily cost would have been £3.50, adding an additional £24.50 to your stay. However, we managed to park at the top of the road on the main street every day where there are no double yellow lines, and we always found a space, so not a real problem unless you are carting lots of stuff back and forth. All in all a great stay in a beautiful location.

Mrs Chapman

September 2015

The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and cosy. There was plenty of hot water and heating if it was required.

Mr Schobben

August 2015

Mr Markland

July 2015

Dr Hill

May 2015

Many thanks for a lovely holiday in Fisherman's Cottage. We loved the cottage, which is beautifully furnished and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen. The location is ideal, and we enjoyed the friendly community at Seahouses. Would be very happy to come again!

March 2015

It's was beautiful and the lady who holds the keys was so helpful. Really nice. Could not fault the cottage, the place or the weather. We all had a lovely weekend.

Ms Riley

February 2015

The Cottage was very clean, warm and welcoming. It is in a great location, very close to the harbour and amenities. There was ample room and thoughtful touches such as board games and books. I would thoroughly recommend Fisherman's Cottage and I have no doubt we will be back.

October 2014

A well equipped cottage in a quiet street close enough to the village centre to not have to worry about the walk. No car parking close by but that didn't impact negatively on our stay. We just felt really comfortable there and hope to return.

Guest

August 2014

This property was just as described. It was very clean and tidy with all the facilities you would need. The property is well situated for getting into the town. The only minus point for it was the parking. Although a parking voucher was provided for the car park, the car park was a good 10 minutes walk away from the cottage. Other than this the cottage is everything you would want from a holiday let.

Mrs Tavener

July 2014

Wonderful location, lovely house. Plenty of crockery, cutlery - highly recommend.

Dr Ayres

We had a fantastic holiday and the Cottage was the perfect base for trips to the beach and to explore the area. It's a really lovely and spacious place to stay and I'd definitely recommend it.

Mr Graham

This is a lovely holiday cottage, roomy and comfortable in a good location. We really enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Wade

June 2014

The cottage is near everything we needed and is spacious, we have already recommended it to friends! We came to the cottage for our honeymoon as it was the first weekend away for us before we got married so had a special meaning for us, I always feel like I have come home when I open the door!

We loved Northumberland, the place and the people, the cottage was much more than we expected, the standard very high, and the owners more than helpful. Would recommend this to anyone.

Mr Bristow

May 2014

The property exceeded our expectations and was absolutely first class. The owners were really helpful and really nice people, would love to go back again.

Mrs Stinton

April 2014

The cottage was wonderful. Everything was at least as good as the description. We had a couple of questions about the cottage and contacted the owners directly. They couldn't have been more helpful. We will be back!

Mrs Hodkinson

February 2014

We were very pleased and impressed with Fisherman's Cottage - the pictures do not do it justice - we found it to be much more spacious than it looked. It was warm, cosy and lovely with excellent lighting. The bedrooms were spacious with lots of storage. The location was great too - 1 minute to the harbour. We hope to return and will definitely recommend to friends.

Amanda W

December 2013

Cottage had a lovely feel when we first arrived. Really cosy & warm. Bedrooms all chintzy heaven & really comfy, we slept well which is rare in a strange bed! Central for everything. Only downside is no parking.

Mrs Taylor

September 2013

Well kept, clean and cosy property and very central for harbour and shops and pubs etc. A really great little place, had brilliant week.

AlisonandTommy

We stayed here in september 2013, me and my partner,my mam and dad and brother his partner..... Cottage looks much nicer that the photo on sykes website as there is new door and looks fab.... Inside very spacious sitting room, with sofa and table and chairs, lovely fire and flat screen tv... Kitchen fully equiped and fab... upstairs there is 3 bedrooms and 2 are double the other twin room... Nice bathroom but felt when 6 of us there was bit hard sorting when to use bathroom for shower etc.... but when some people went wasnt as bad... The only downside I would say is that there is no outside area, so cant kjust sit outside and relax, the front is straight onto street and the back just an area with bins etc ... Apart from that we cant complain and would think about returning next year

Mr Bos

July 2013

Our second week this year in Northumberland. Great place to stay! My wife and I almost felt like locals in this very friendly place. Very nice property and just as during the first week in Bilton Barns, very friendly hosts. Highly recommended. An unforgettable experience.

Mrs Howlett

We loved the location and the fact that a two drive in any direction allowed us to visit Edinburgh and many of Northumberland's wonderful sights and locations.

June 2013

We have been twice to fishermans cottage and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, its clean well presented and close to everything. It wont be our last stay there either, The photo doesnt do it justice as they have new windows etc now and has everything you need. We love it.

Miss Stewart

November 2012

The cottage was very well located in Seahouses, within a very short walk of all amenities.

Mr Lee

October 2012

A great place for my dads 50th Birthday treat for the family. Absolutely excellent accommodation, making us all feel special. We were all so shocked as we walked through the door into something decorated to such a standard and into a place so clean. Nice touches with jigsaws and books.

Mr Shaw

August 2012

The house was very pleasant and very well located. We enjoyed staying there and had a lovely time.

Mr Wilkinson

January 2012

Excellent house which was in a perfect location in the center of Seahouses. I would without a doubt use again and recommend both this property and Sykes Cottages to others.

Mrs Cooper

November 2011

Loved the area, and the cottage was an ideal base for us - good location to easily explore other parts of the coast and a really lovely cottage.

Mrs Ball

September 2011

An excellent cottage, well presented with all the mod cons. Ideally situated for harbor, Farne Island, Bamburgh, Low Newton by the Sea, Craster and Alnwick.

Mrs Sanders

The location of the property was very good and the house very cosy and welcoming. The cottage was very comfortable and perfect for our needs.

Well situated in the town and although it was a town it was very quiet and peaceful. Not what you would imagine if you live in or near a town yourself. The cottage was very clean and spacious with everything you could possibly need. the beach was no more than five minutes away which more than made up for the property having no outside area of its own.

August 2011

It was a really lovely cottage. immaculatly clean. Lovely cotton bedding and excellent kitchen contents. 2mins walk to the beach and the town. Parking was about £15 for the week in the town but you could park in nearby streets. Only downside was 1 bathroom and no outdoor space. Would be really nice if it had a solid fuel fire for the winter,excellent fish n chips in Seahouses.

Mrs Mccarthy

July 2011

The cottage was very clean and well equipped. The area was very nice and the people were friendly. There was so much to do in the area we ran out of time! A lovely holiday.

Ms Jackson

June 2011

Location was great as near to the harbour and beach. Kitchen facilities were excellent. Excellent bedrooms with very comfy beds and good quality cotton sheets and duvets.

May 2011

Loved the Northumberland coastline. The cottage was well positioned, well equipped and had pretty much everything that we could have wanted.

Mrs Dixon

Lots of space in all of the rooms and a very cosy feeling to the property.

Mrs Hammond

September 2010

The cottage was brilliant and we would recommend it to all our friends.

Alan Lambert

The service was 1st class, my wife is disabled and on oxygen 24 hrs a day.Mrs Jackson ensured the delivery and collection of the oxygen. She showed concern over our well being during our stay. The cottage was excellent for our needs, nice and clean and tidy with ample room to cater for my wife's needs. The cottage was on the doorstep of all local amenities, two minutes and you where at the shops and in the evening to the night life. I can't fault our holiday as everything from the cottage to the amenities to the weather was all you could ask for.

Mrs Lambert

July 2010

The weather was perfect, the cottage situation was perfect for our needs. The owner could not have been nicer. All in all it was these things that made it the best holiday we have had for a long time.

Very rewarding and being ideally located to get the best out of the area from a very comfortable base.

Mrs Lester

June 2010

Nice, lovely cottage in a good location, close to sea and harbour. Good location, good food locally. We were very happy there.

Mr Mrs Garside

Fresh air, freedom and being able to take the dogs.

Mr Driver

March 2010

This was excellent value for money; high quality accommodation in the lovely North-East sea-side town of Seahouses. We have been to Seahouses many times as a family. And we love it!! Excellent local eating and drinking places and beautiful walks along the coast. A splendid time is guaranteed for all.

Mr Claffey

Good location, to visit surrounding areas. Close to the beach for children. Good walks along the coast.

Mrs Cox

February 2010

Cottage was warm and comfortable. Everything well provided and functional. Owner contacted before departure which was very welcome. Area wonderful and town had all amenities.

December 2009

The accommodation was very central to Seahouses village and all local amenities. The cottage was clean, tidy and nicely presented with everything you require for a comfortable stay. I would definately come again. Only negative comment would be the parking. A neighbour has space for one car, otherwise you need to use public car parks.

Sykes cottage proved to be one of the nicest holiday rentals in which we have stayed. It is well equipped, spacious and comfortable. The location, althought seemingly in a small road of terraced cottages, proved to be exceptional with views of the Harbor, Bamburgh Castle and the Farned Islands being only one minutes walk away. Highly recommended.

July 2007

The property we stayed at reflected very well the description online and more than met all our expectations. The central location was ideal, allowing us to walk within Seahouses and to tour the surrounding countryside. We thoroughly enjoyed it, and I found all transactions with Sykes Cottages, both online and when in contact with the cottage caretakers, friendly, professional and very efficient. I would definitely recommend Sykes to others.

Mr Foster

May 2007

A great holiday in a beautiful area.

Mr Mrs Sumnall

The modernisation of the property is imaginative and practical and executed to a brilliant standard of craftsmanship, particularly the joinery work.

Mr Ewing

Lovely beaches and a good day out to Alnwick Castle Gardens. The accommodation was excellent. The off road parking was an excellent bonus.

Mrs Berney

The whole thing was wonderful - loads to do in the area for all ages, we would go back again

Mrs Doyle

Ideally situated, close to the harbour etc. Cottage very well equipped. Had everything we needed. Ideal location for visiting local attractions. No complaints.

The area did it for us and also the friendliness of the people. The Olde Ship serves excellent food and has a great atmosphere. A little further afield at Rennington, The Horseshoes Inn serves superb food also. We found most of the local establishments very dog friendly. The walks around the area give breathtaking views and are to be highly recommended.

The cottage was lovely and has obviously been refurbished very recently. The location was very good as it was surrounded by beautiful scenery and the sunshine we enjoyed all week just finished the whole thing nicely.
