Rose Cottage Reviews

Christopher
Found the cottage very comfortable and had everything you would need for a stay. It was very well situated to visit lots of local attractions. The only thing we disliked was the very large pebbles used in the garden area. Overall it is a very nice stay and we recommend anyone to book it, would really enjoy the stay. We will definitely book again.
A lovely and well equipped cottage. Set in an excellent location for exploring the surrounding areas. The welcome pack is a lovely gesture and very much appreciated. Looking forward to returning next year.
Lovely cottage in a fantastic location. Cottage was comfortable and clean, with all the facilities I wanted.
Have been many times to Rose Cottage its always very clean , we really love it and have already booked for 2027 . Our present dog cant be let off the lead so its great that there is a secure dog field 5 mins away . Also love walking in Thrunton Woods again close by . Cragside allow dogs in the gardens and Alnwick gardens allow dogs one day a week The cottage has everything you need and a super king size bed which is really comfortable.
Edward
Excellent accomodation
Lovely cottage and perfect for a couple and their doggy family. Great location for visiting Chillingham, Alnwick, Bamburgh and Cragside, which are all amazing. Alnwick very close and had everything we needed. The cottage is in a busy crossroads but you couldn't tell, and the views from all the windows and doors are lovely. We had a lovely week and would happily stay there again.
Really lovely little cottage. Great location a short drive to lots of lovely locations, nearest pub and shop 4 miles away. The cottage had everything we needed, really comfortable super king bed and great bath shower. Good selection of dvds for a rainy day, The only thing missing was an outdoor tap to wash the dog . We would definitely book again.
The perfect cottage for the two of us and dog. Only thing missing was a couple of chairs in the bedroom to put our clothes on The cottage was very clean.
Loved this cosy cottage. It had everything that we needed and was very clean. Very quiet beautiful views lovely sunset from the sofa too! My only small comment is that our spaniel didn't really like the cobbles in the courtyard. Thanks
Loved the cottage and really enjoyed my holiday in Northumberland
Nice cottage and the gift of wine and biscuits was a nice touch
Anthony
What a lovely cottage. From the moment we walked in felt homely. Lovely gift pack left by the owners. Decoration very tasteful, cleanliness couldn't find anything wrong.. The furniture comfortable, the bed a lovely 6' bed, good quality bedding. We would go again
Nice accommodation & everything you need for a self catering vacation. Outside area is nothing like the pics though & my dog really didn't like the stones. The stones in the pic have been replaced by stones like a pebbly beach. The back area by the bins is very dirty & needs addressing. The bed is amazing & over all had a comfortable stay but would probably book somewhere closer to Alnwick if I ever returned. It is extremely close to a busy road & felt quite isolated. Thank you for the goodies! Much appreciated
Another fantastic week at Rose Cottage! ! The welcome pack is a lovely thought and very much appreciated, thank you. Looking forward to returning in August.
Richard
Arrived on the Sunday, first impression very clean but small maybe with 4 dogs ... Arrived on the Sunday, first impression very clean but small maybe with 4 dogs too small, nice thought welcome pack, fridge small if bringing food, could do with baking trays for oven and maybe condiments, nice bathroom and large comfy bed, we new the area from previous visits but still found new places to visit and the weather was on our side dry and sunny, the dogs had their legs walked off on the lovely beaches, can't wait to return
This is a lovely cottage and perfect location to explore either the coast or inland. The welcome parcel was a wonderful addition. The outdoor space was great for our dogs too. Highly recommend and we will definitely go back.
Michael
All good, great location for touring. The property was warm clean and comfortable, would stay there again.
It was out 5th stay in this lovely little cottage.
Lovely cottage to use as a base, clean and comfortable. Only thing that wasn't mentioned was that it's on a busy main road and we had to keep curtains closed for privacy.
We had a super week at Rose Cottage. It was warm and comfortable, well equipped and well located on a crossroads for easy access to many places of interest. The kitchen appliances were all new and efficient and easy to use. The enclosed outside space was great for the dog. It was also good to have designated parking. The smart tv was a good bonus festure that allowed us to sign in and relax with a movie in the evening. Good local information provided. We would have liked a chair in the bedroom but that was really negligible to our enjoyment of the week.
A lovely Cottage was not quite aware of how close the road was. The pebbles were a bit of a challenge, otherwise a pleasant stay .
We had a lovely stay at Rose Cottage. It was comfortable, clean and in a good location for exploring. The bed was really comfortable and the shower was great. Only a couple of minor negatives would be the gravel in the back yard. Our dog wasn't comfortable walking on it at all. The only other thing being a lack of a few kitchen items like baking trays, only one oven mitt etc. Other than that, it was great. We'd happily book again for our next trip up to Northumberland.
This is our second stay at this lovely cottage and it wont be the last. The cottage was very clean and the welcome pack was very much appreciated. Perfect base for exploring the beautiful beaches in the area. Would highly recommend Rose Cottage
Rachel
A lovely little warm & cosy cottage. Well placed for visits to Cragside & all our favourite beaches. Luxury decor & a huge comfy bed. Amazing waterfall shower. The only improvement in the bathroom would be a hook near the sink for a hand towels. The owners provide bath towels & bath sheets. The cottages central heating is easily controlled from a hand held thermostat. The kitchen equipment is adequate but lacks basics like oven trays & a grill pan. Outside be careful with your dogs if they can jump as one side of the garden the fence is only around 4ft. Would return.
Kathleen
Lovely cottage ,very comfortable especially the bed , didn't realise it was near ... Lovely cottage ,very comfortable especially the bed , didn't realise it was near a very busy road but in the end didn't bother us , my only comment is outside the large pebbles you have in the back garden the dogs didn't like them under their feet would have been better with small gravel also and outside tap would have been useful to wash down dogs
Very well appointed and very clean cottage with a lovely welcoming pack, this was very much appreciated. The cottage had everything you need, including a very comfortable large bed. It is a great base for exploring Northumbria but it would be difficult to spend a whole day at the cottage relaxing due to traffic noise in the garden, sofa not being comfortable to sit on for any length or time and the living room being dark. Overall, we had a lovely 7 days exploring the area.
Just had another lovely week in Rose Cottage. Nothing to fault, a perfect little cottage that ticks all the boxes. Weve booked twice for next year, cant wait!!
Alison
A lovely little cottage, with a wonderfully comfortable super kingsize bed. It has everything you need, including a hairdryer. The fenced garden is secure if you have small dogs. It is approximately 4ft high. We enjoyed our stay at Rose Cottage and found it an ideal base from which to explore in land and the coast.
Stacey
Lovely little cottage Gorgeous place Lovely and clean well equipped . Will return
This cottage is below the Sykes standards for cleaning the door frames were filthy, pipework in bathroom full of dirt, stairs need a full clean, fire guard needs proper clean at bottom not just caught when floor mopped? Only ONE silicone oven glove is no good when two hands required to lift items out? This cottage is not fully equiped with only two LARGE wine glasses, no oven trays. Window frames need a good clean between the glazing units dead flies and bugs and roof lights need a clean.
Joanne
The cottage is very well equipped with everything you need . It is well laid out and is an ideal base for exploring such an amazing part of the country.
Stephen
Rose cottage is an ideal location for exploring the Northumberland coastline and other places of interest. The cottage is clean and comfortable with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable.
Claire
We love this cottage been several times
The cottage is very dog friendly but is so clean that anyone without a dog would be happy. I travel with dogs so my whole focus is whether places are suitable. The garden at Rose Cottage is secure and the bit between the garden and parking is also secure added peace of mind. For humans there is everything you could want. It is well equipped, very warm, and cosy. A friendly welcome from the neighbours, too. Not sure the place could be improved upon. Alnwick Castle was closed but I visited Bamburgh Castle. Well worth a visit with, again, dog friendly grounds and super helpful staff.
Hi this is Gail Pattinson we have left Rose Cottage early, the house itself is lovely however the garden area does not reflect how it looks in the sykes app. The whole of the garden is in disrepair gravel is sparse, the signage has rusted and fallen on the ground, the furniture is different to what is in the sykes photos, the chairs and table is a bistro set totally filthy been left out in all the elements, solar garden lights broken, do not work and just add to the mess, the white cupboard, mirrors etc are all dirty and thick with mould, bird bath is broken, even the little white sink. Everything is just totally unkempt. We booked the cottage for 2 reasons a lovely place to stay and a garden to sit out in after our walks with the dogs. We could not sit in the garden area the way it looked it was awful, we are very dissapointed
Robert
This is an excellent little cottage, especially for a winter break. It was lovely, comfortable and cosy and well equipped. It is well located for travelling around the area. We had a great week. Two things to feed back... We couldn't find the parking disc. Fortunately we have a disc, albeit a Cumbrian one! We think the lighting could be enhanced by having a lamp at the door end of the sofa.
Excellent cottage everything accurate in listing. Phenomenal bed super king size
Our first stay here and really enjoyed. The cottage was very cosy and well equipped lovely welcome pack thank you. Very convenient to lots of places to visit especially the coast with our dog. Will definitely look to staying here again was a welcome break in January to give the feel good factor after Christmas.
