Grebe Cottage

• "Lovely cosy feel and so nice to not have notices everywhere."

  Beautifully decorated and gorgeous art work; very well equipped kitchen. Would come back in a heartbeat. The only limitations to the cottage are ones you can do little about but as we were under occupying the small bathroom and slightly cramped sitting room were no problem. The shower is very low but again so is the ceiling- water could be hotter though. We had selected for a garden as we bought a small dog with us but as the garden was not attached it was unsuitable but we may have missed that in the listing. Instructions said parking in the Main Street but that’s not really true as it’s limited in time and like gold dust even in April. That’s the charm of Alnmouth.

• "Not for the elderly, shiny floors ans slippery mats don’t work, I took a good tumble and cut my leg on the bed."

  No one’s fault but something you might bear in mind. There were only two of us stayed in the end not sure it’s big enough for five. On the plus side, it was the cleanest most well appointed cottage we have stayed in.

• "Perfect location - Alnmouth is a lovely village with all that you need - beautiful sandy beach with lots of walks from the cottage doorstep, village store stocking all the essentials and treats, numerous eateries, and interesting architecture."

  The cottage was clean, cosy and warm. No problems finding parking spaces (in March). Lots to do within easy reach. Hope to return.

• "Lovely cottage in a very nice position in Alnmouth."

  Very comfortable and cosy and the property met the description. Very clean on arrival. Just a few areas that I would suggest for fairness and improvement really. I think it has been mentioned before in previous feedback, but three logs and sticks described as a starter fire pack is not on really especially for winter lets. Only one loo role on arrival for a cottage that sleeps 5 No proper kitchen cloths and a very limited supply of washing up liquid. I am sorry but the cottage is not cheap and you would expect more basic essentials being provided. I would suggest new customers to be aware of this prior to arrival and come prepared. Also for those people not familiar with the Nest Heating system it was tricky to figure out. There was no instructions for this in the cottage information. I think they must have gone missing as the information stated that they should be included. Therefore downstairs cold but small bedroom roasting.

• "Grebe Cottage itself was excellent, clean and extremely cosy."

  The provision of some wood would have been nice for the first night as we arrived after shop hours. There were some sticks and 3 logs but not enough for the night. Some of the shopkeepers need a course in customer relations, one couldn’t manage a good morning, whilst another questioned why we asking for mince pies on the 29th of November as it was not Christmas yet. Whilst some locals were pleasant it was evident that others had no time or patience for visitors.
