Budle Newton Cottage

Very pleasant and great location but missing small things already noted. Positive: Location and space! Negative: Very little amount or not at all essentials for cooking/kitchen (salt, sugar, oil, fairy liquid, dish washer tablets, etc). The dishwasher didn't clean properly. And some of the cutlery, china and glasses were not clean when we arrived. The house was not pristine clean either.

The cottage was great, and the views over the bay and across to Lindisfarne were amazing. It was just as described and the little extras were a nice touch. It was a perfect place to celebrate a special family birthday and we didn't have to drive far to find lots of things to do, although staying at the cottage was also just so nice. We all enjoyed our stay very much and hope to be back sometime.

Absolutely idyllic location and with huge amounts of living space, our family of 7 never felt on top of one another due to the layout. The pool table and hot tub are perfect to keep the kids (and adults) entertained. The kitchen comes supplied with everything you could need with the added bonus of the Aga cooker and the welcome good bag was a perfect touch! We shall definitely be booking again for next year!

Great house in a stunning spot. Loved our short stay with great facilities and added bonus extras like the rounds of golf. Stunning part of the world

Amazing place to enjoy unbeatable views over Lindisfarne. Great facilities. Someone just needs to service the kitchen ap Positive: Unbeatable views from the conservatory, large well-serviced hot tub to appreciate the views, pool table & drinks fridge, aga kept the kitchen cosy, generous provision of two towels per person. Great for dogs - plenty of space for them to run from the door & easy walk to an empty beach. Spacious living & dining areas. The location is what makes this property special. Negative: Kitchen was neglected : freezer needs defrosting & dishwasher couldn’t be used as things came out dirty (& previous guests had put away cutlery & crockery like that) Everything felt grubby before we had washed it by hand. No tea towel or spray for cleaning surfaces. Double bed in downstairs room on the small side. Strongly disliked barrage of e-mails & texts hounding me into paying a ‘damage waiver’ when my credit card details are stored & were used to pay hefty balance. This felt exploitative and unnecessary. If we had damaged anything, these details would suffice to recoup a loss.
