  This is a lovely cottage with one of the best quality equipped kitchens we have seen. Lots of quality utensils and the microwave, oven, dishwasher and washing machine were easy to use but there is also a comprehensive list of instructions in the welcome book. The fridge is a small one with a single box freezer which we didn’t realise and we had ordered a food delivery with too much frozen food but were able to keep most of it. The dining area is on wooden benches and stools with plenty of room for upto 4 people. The living area has a 2 seater sofa and a single chair. The wood burning fire was just lovely especially in the new year cold temperatures we had. The individual electric heating system worked perfectly so we could align the right temperature to each room where needed. The bathroom was superbly clean with two towels provided per person. The electric shower ran super hot water and while not overly powerful, it certainly did the job. The 2 singles bedroom had no cupboard for hanging clothes, perhaps a small one where the shelves and rocking chair are kept would serve the room better. The master room had a double bed that has a foot board and so anyone tall might struggle but all the mattresses and pillows were very comfortable indeed. The rooms were very quiet aswell with not much noise heard from outside. There is no allocated parking but we were able to park 2-3 cars up the road. The one time we did get parked outside the cottage (which we had hoped to get for when repacking the car) was soon taken again by the local resident over the road who didn’t like us parking in their spot, oh dear! And so we had to pack up the car in the heavy rain which wasn’t ideal. All in all, this cottage is beautifully decorated and presented and in a fantastic location on the island, a couple of doors from the nearest pub and just around the corner from the lovely post office/cafe ( who make the best home made sausage rolls and quiches!) There are always going to be suggestions for little improvements but none of what we found would put us off from staying here again. Thankyou to the owners for sharing this lovely little cottage.

  We had a lovely relaxing holiday in February at The Coach House, and could not fault the accommodation.

  The house was warm and welcoming and very comfortable, and we were amazed at the substantial welcome pack! The garden was perfect for our labrador - safe to let her mooch about on her own.The kitchen was pretty well equipped with everything we needed (though i admit we were more reheating rather than actually cooking) including a medium sized insulated cafetiere in which to brew some of the local Berwick roast coffee. Our host popped by a couple of times to check all was well and advised us on dog friendly beaches and eating out. Lowick is a great little village with two dog-friendly pubs and a well stocked shop with lovely fresh baked products, savouries and sweet. Very central and nowhere seemed very far away. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. The only word of warning would be that February is before a lot of the local attractions open eg Alnwick Castle, so if you plan to go somewhere specific, check opening dates! We had a perfect week of relaxation and pottering around the area, and this whole holiday suited our 3 generations of ladies (and Lilly the dog!) perfectly. Thank you.

  The Coach House was perfect for our stay.

  My elderly parents were perfectly accommodated in the downstairs bedroom with en-suite. The layout of the downstairs area was perfect for us as we could decide wether to sit and watch TV, play games at the table or sit reading or chatting in the sunny entrance hall ‘sun room’. We chuckled about getting my elderly father on a ladder to clear the few cobwebs from the very top of the stove-pipe in the double height living area .. he’d have given it a go ( and we’d then we’d probably be reviewing A&E ,too!). The upstairs rooms were spacious and light with fabulous views. The Juliette balcony doors didn’t open - so it was a little hot as we were blessed with superb weather. Lowick is perfectly placed for Northumberland’s tourist attractions, ccastles, and beaches - and the border of Scotland is easily reached (within 20mins) for more activity ideas. The garden was lovely and the patio is a sun trap. Plenty of off street parking for at leas three cars. All in all, a fabulous find!

  The entrance to the property was around the back which I knew but it was behind the Victoria Hotel and wasn't the nicest of environment's for accessing a property. The property information did not say that there was just one window in the living room with opaque glass, as outside the window there was the outside area of another property. There was one little window you could open but basically it was quite dark and smelt quite 'stale' in there. Unfortunately my daughter had wanted to do her revision in that room for her exams after half term, but it was so dark and unleasant that she couldn't study there. In the end we came home early so she could do some revision at home. I do think that this type of arrangement should have been explicit in the property information as it was quite unpleasant and not expected. I feel therfore that it was not good value for money having not spent a whole week there because of the low quality of that downstairs accommodation.

  We were a group of 4 adults and 2 children and we had a wonderful stay in the coach house.

  It was perfect for us and Russell was excellent at communicating with us. They live next door and assured us that if we needed anything, to pop round and tell them. We stayed the week of storms Dudley and Eunice! But the coach house stayed lovely and warm with the wood burner being a real focal point in the lovely double height sitting area. There was always loads of hot water for piping hot baths and showers which we really appreciated after a day out and about. The pub across the road ( The Black Bull inn) is wonderful with fab food. To sum everything up….. the coach house is in a beautiful part of England, and has everything you need for a holiday. The owners left a very well stocked welcome pack full of locally sourced products and there was a big bunch of daffodils to welcome us too. We would love to return one day!
