Place was clean and beautifully furnished, had pretty much everything we needed. The welcome pack was much appreciated and the information pack was very useful. I had an issue with the heating (totally user-error) and Barbara responded to me very quickly. The house is ideally located for touring round Northumberland.

Amble in the sun
Recently returned from a short stay in Amble where the weather was sunny every day and the spotless accommodation we stayed in was so comprehensively equipped and was in fact excellent in every way. A welcoming basket of food and drink was a really nice gesture. We enjoyed some really nice meals at Lal Khazani in Shilbottle, the Horseshoes in Remington, the Masons Arms Warkworth and Rossini in Amble all of which we would readily eat at again. All in all a really nice stay made so enjoyable by the home from home standard of the accommodation and certainly a place to return to if holidaying in that part of the country again.

We loved our stay at Ankle house. The property is the cleanest rental house we have ever stopped in and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The welcome hamper with fresh scones was a lovely touch. The owners are helpful and communication was great. Amble and the local area is beautiful. We'd definitely return and would highly recommend.

A lovely comfortable place to stay
We loved it here. Good communication from the owners making it an easy check in. The cottage is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The garden is very safe and secure for dogs even for little escape artists like ours. Well located with lots of local amenities and shops in walking distance. A great base for exploring Northumberland. Can highly recommend.
