Anne

We stayed in this fabulous house for my sisters birthday weekend. It is absolutely immaculate and has everything we needed . The location is beautiful with the most amazing views . The owner was really helpful with our inquires and quick to reply . Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning

Sally

Had a lovely family birthday celebration in this beautiful property with 3 generations. Loved the views and level of comfort and equipment . Shame we weren't there for longer. ..

Joanne

The Barns is a stunning accommodation set in a beautiful, rural location with amazing views. Extremely well equipped with everything you need, a true home from home! The beds are clean and comfortable, the rooms are spacious with lovely decor and ambient lighting for cosy nights in. We stayed with elderly parents so the level flooring of this property is ideal for those with walking difficulties. We visited Lindesfarne, Seahouses and Beadnell which are all a short drive away and enjoyed a lovely Sunday Lunch at the Craster Arms at Beadnell. Whilst we understand the vacation time at the property is 10am this is a little bit early for us having elderly and disabled parents with us however, this would not prevent us from staying at the property again. Thank you to the owners of this wonderful holiday home!

Jennifer

A fabulous house in a fabulous location, dog friendly, peaceful and off the beaten track. Wonderful views of hills, open country and the coast.

Paula

Fabulous cottage for our big family and two dogs. Really spacious and comfy, easy access to the A1 but still tranquil and with beautiful views. We really enjoyed our stay.

Richard

A top quality Cottage which offers a real wow factor. In addition, the location offers wonderful views towards Bamburgh Castle and the Farne Islands. A gem of a property.

Michelle

Lovely cottage, it housed 7 adults and a baby very comfortably. Well positioned to visit the Northumberland coast, and conveniently placed not far from the A1 for good access. Quiet location with several walks from the door.

Heather

We loved this house! It was spacious and quiet, with a fabulous view over towards the sea. We were 3 generations or our family and it suited us all. It's so well placed for visiting places - the coast, Bambrugh, Lindisfarne, Alnwick, Cragside.... the list goes on.

John

Lovely peaceful cottage, we love to get away from it all and the Barns does that wonderfully!

Alison

Beautiful Cottage, beautiful location, comfortable home from home. Highly recommend!!

Mark

Great location just off the A1 with plenty of parking. The accommodation is nice and spacious with plenty of bathrooms for everyone. Some rooms could do with a good clean but it was a good sized property for two families of four
