The house was perfect for us. wonderful views from the breakfast bar with passing boats, and little shore beach and grassy area just across the (quiet) road. This beach is enclosed by the harbour wall so is calm and safe for kids. Amble Links Beach, a 15 min walk or 2 min drive, is lovely. The house is comfortable, with all our needs thought of, the owners left a welcome pack of milk, bread, biscuits, wine etc which was great. The southfacing patio is enclosed and private, and the shrubs are a little haven for lots of tiny birds who feed on the birdtable. Location is great for beaches and castles (we did a walk from Craster to Dunstanburgh castle amidst spectactular coastal scenery, and afterwards had a lovely pub meal in Craster and bought kippers from the smokehouse). In Amble, plenty of local shops, amazing icecreams from Spurelli's cafe, lovely Puffin cruises from the harbour. a great holiday.
Booked this cottage at the very last minute on Christmas Eve for a stay starting on Boxing Day for 1 week. Reasonably equipped house, lots of children's games. Woodburner gave the cottage an Xmas/winter feel but also the central heating was very efficient. Lovely picture window for watching the world go by. Walk out of the door and straight onto the beach. Good location for the rest of Northumberland
We stayed here July 2014, two adults and our 16 year old son, great size for us.
s well as all the equipment , owner provided a welcome pack including a bottle of wine!
Great location overlooking the bay close to bars, cafes and supermarkets, ideal for exploring Northumberland. An information pack was also provided with all the sights to see and walks around the area..
My self and my wife enjoyed the cottage. It's right on the seafront with a green and beach across a small path. The cottage was spacious,all mod cons and lovely and clean. We received a welcome pack which was great.
There is a small co op just up the road for provisions or a tesco express in town.
The chip shop locally is fantastic and there is a resturant called the boat house on the quay which was lovely.There is another in the town but didn't go there but was always full. There are plenty of walks locally and there is a file at the cottage with loads of info in it. We loved it and will be back
2 bay view is an ideal place to stay to explore Northumberland, a spacious 2 bedroom house overlooking Amble harbour.The owners were very welcoming and helpful with some walks in the area,the welcome pack was much appreciated,and we would definately stay there again some time in the future.

We stayed here for a week (10 to 17 May) and really enjoyed ourselves. We have a black lab - River, who absolutely enjoyed herself, but I think she was the only one glad to go home at the end of our stay as she was shattered with all the walking and swimming she did! Very close to the beaches and town, which has all you could need - good butchers, Tesco and Co-op supermarkets and banks, and some really good walks. We were contacted by the owner before our holiday and she gave us some really useful information. Also left a welcome package which included a very nice bottle of red wine and some eggs from her own hens - lovely and so fresh. The cottage has everything you might need, including a BBQ, which we used several times, and a woodburning stove, which we used even though it was not cold enough as it just looked so nice! There are loads of information leaflets/booklets to read through and plan days out with. Big picture window in the kitchen proved to be an ideal spot (at any time) to sit and look out over the grassy area to the beach and watch people, dogs and the birds. Very nice farmer's-type market on Sundays at the harbour - fresh fish, veg and meat. Bought a bag of mixed sole/plaice fillets, but could not eat it all as there must have been around 20 smallish fillets - this cost £5, good job River likes fish! Friendly local people, who are more than willing to pass on their local knowledge and help out if you are unsure of where to go. Hope we are able to go back one day!

Our three night stay was far too short to view everything on offer in the area. The house is located in a quiet area of Amble and looks out onto the harbour. The accommodation was clean, warm and cosy with all the amenities that we could have needed and more. Cinty, the owner contacted us with formation about access to the house, which was great as we could choose to arrive at a time to suit us. We would like to thank Cinty for leaving us a welcome pack which included everything we needed to make ourselves at home. We're already planning our next trip! :)
