Nice quiet 3 day break

I booked the property for my parents & their friend as a surprise getaway to relax. The first thing my parents commented on was how clean the property was and that it smelled amazing on arrival. They loved the location of the house, also they appreciated that should kids be staying there, the toys/dress up provided & also the style of the second bedroom would be fantastic for them. My dad who suffers with Arthritis was also very complimentary to the comfort of the bed in the master bedroom, saying its the best nights sleep he'd had in years. Elaine was also very pleasant to speak to and went out of her way to suggest afternoon teas/local cafes for my parents to visit. All in all a fantastic overall experience

Perfect stay

Firstly we had a great stay, everything was perfect, the children loved to pirate themed room. It was a shame we didnt get to spend more time here as we used it to sleep and change to much tto do and see. The bad part now. we left everything as found, the host claims we left spill damage all over the place and has to have everything upholstered, they provided photos as evidence of the damage which is a joke. Non of said evidence was present when we left. We are honest people if we left any damage i would of contacted the host immediately to inform them. Absolute shame at the behaviour ofmthe host was such a nice place to stay. They also claim to have contacted us about this but the only message i received was from vrbo saying we are being charged a damage fee. What a shame

This house is outstanding. Elaine caters for everyone especially children and as we know when the kids are happy the adults can relax. We have stayed for the third time last weekend , it is such a central area with a beach minutes away also. We will be back certainly.

Back Again

Obviously we rated the accomodation very highly as we returned for a second visit within 6 months. The house is well situated 43seconds from the sea. Counted by my husband and grandson. Very well equipped, Elaine has thought of everything. The second bedroom was a delight for my grandson and us with a pirate theme and toys. Newbiggin is a nice town with an extensive beach and walking areas. We will return.

Great Property

We stayed at the property for two days while sight seeing in the north east on our way back to the south of England from Edinburgh. The property was immaculate and Elaine was a fantastic host. It is particularly good for families with small children as Elaine has thought of and provided everything they could need.

Super Seaside Stay

could not recommend this accommodation more. We were a mixed family group from 2years old, his Daddy and Grandparent. Elaine had provided a range of good quality toys e.g. Fisher Price Pirate ship which our grandson loved. The house was clean and comfortable with everything you could need. The area was a short walk to the lovely town and the beach was only minutes away. Could not recommend this accommodation more and Elaine was easily contacted if needed .

A week in Newbiggin by the sea

Wow what a fantastic holiday we’ve just had with our two grandchildren! The house was brilliant, so clean and cosy and with EVERYTHING we could possibly need!! 3.45 minutes to walking on the beach, timed by the grandson! A lovely clean beach, soft sand, clear water and rock pools which kept us happy till sunset!! Easy access to plenty of things to see and a wonderful host who was available to us with ideas. Thank you Elaine xx

Fabulous Bolt Hole

The property is beautifully clean, tastefully furnished and decorated and provides everything you need, including games and toys for children. It is located one road back from the beach front, 2 minutes walk and near enough to hear the waves. The village is small with a couple of shops for provisions and take aways but easy driving distance from the lovely towns of Amble, Warkworth, and Alnwick. We had a lovely four days here 😊

Great base for exploring Northumberland

A lovely, clean house with everything that we needed for a short, quiet get-away. There was loads to do within the surrounding area and we particularly enjoyed Lindisfarne/Holy Island, Seahouses, Whitley Bay, Newcastle and Dunstanburgh Castle. After a busy day out and about, Newbiggin (and Elaine's house) was the perfect setting to return to and each evening we all enjoyed a walk along the beach before returning to the house for supper and a few games before bed.

On arriving we were very happy with the home. The owner was very rapid in replying to any messages. It was a nice surprise to find things in the home such as, a little milk, sugar shower gel. We didn't need it but that I thought was a lovely kind touch. It's very close to the beach and it was lovely to just wake up and pop down there.
