The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters - the daily catch can be bought at a fish shop in the harbour. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award winning gardens, and the National Trust's Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
Reviews
"Great cottage in good location close to local shops and restaurants. Beautiful views from property really made this place special, we spent ages just looking out. Log burner was perfect for cosy evenings in. "
"We had a fabulous week here. Well equipped little house, perfectly situated for walks with family and/or dogs. Supermarket just up the road. Friendly and helpful owner. Welcome pack with milk, bread, tea, coffee and cake. House was immaculate."
"Excellent views of the bay from the front window which has a breakfast bar - we spent hours sitting there watching the sea and people going by on the green. Wonderful local shopping centre a few minutes walk away in the main street. Lovely market in the harbour only 200 meters away on a Sunday. The house has all you can need and there was even a lovely welcome hamper. This was our second visit and we'll make a third sometime."
"Superb location overlooking the harbour with a beautiful beaches just steps away. This dog friendly house had everything we needed and was extremely comfortable and homely. Much time was spent admiring the view and watching the world go by from the breakfast bar. The welcome hamper was a lovely surprise and most welcome :). Short walks to great restaurants (check out the bistro in Queen street), a fantastic ice-cream parlour and traditional fish and chips. Sunday Market a must especially the fresh fish! A great place to stay if you want to just chill out or to use as a base for exploring the North East. An amazing week, we will be back !!"
"Bay view was lovely and cosy with a great wood burning stove and Amble is very dog friendly can't wait to return next year. The Wellwood was very friendly staff and lovely food would highly recommend."
"Lovely house and are V welcoming Great views and walks V relaxed ,beautiful area Prime location for walking to all points of interests Great Thank You"
"I don't usually write reviews but this house deserved one. What a fabulous place to stay. The house had everything we needed. The location was perfect for exploring the area. The kids loved sitting at the breakfast bar watching the world go by outside. The view across the harbour to Warkworth Castle was amazing. Will definitely book again. The owner was very helpful when getting the key code. She gave us useful tips and places to visit."
"After a four hour drive in the rain we arrived to a lovely cottage overlooking the estuary , pier and sea . Inside the cottage was a welcome pack of bread, wine , tea,coffee biscuits and milk also a bag of logs and lighters to get you started. Such a cosy house well equipped in the kitchen and towels alike. Very squeaky floor boards and stairs but no doubt the age of the house it's to be expected. Visited the boat house for lunch - amazing food . Also Sunday Amble always has a market great for fruit veg seafood meat etc. Spurellis cafe/icecream is highly recommended. All the shops etc you can easily walk to if you don't fancy driving. Saw some amazing tide changes over the week with wonderful weather for the time of year. Plenty sand on the beach at low tide , a dog lovers paradise as it seems the area to walk the dogs. Locals all seem very friendly and we were given all the help and advice from the owners prior to our arrival. Would love to return sometime in the future."
"We stayed over Christmas 2015. The cottage is warm, mid December and we never got around to lighting the fire, it has its own wifi, and a great view onto the bay area, and you can just sit at the breakfast bar and watch the world go by. There is an enclosed garden, so if you have a dog, they won't be able to get out, the beds were comfortable and clean, there was plenty of hot water, and it does look just like it does in the pictures! The upstairs floors do creak, but soundproofing with the adjoining cottages is very good - so if you walk around in the night you might wake up other people in your house but not in anybody else's. A family of about 10 stayed next door when we were there and we didn't hear a peep from them and the street was really quiet. The owners were very helpful, and left a welcome basket which included a bottle of red and a little selection of Stollen, which lasted a good 5 minutes. The cottage has lots of model ships as part of the decor - and it looks like they've taken care to make it feel like a home. There are also loads of DVDs and books to read, and there were also children's games in one of the bedrooms. There are all sorts of places to walk dogs in the area, virtually all of them well away from roads, and there's a marina and the main street, Queen Street, which has lots of small retailers. Amble is not the most picturesque seaside town I've been to, but it has a lot to recommend it in terms of places to eat, and things to do, there are at least two fish and chip shops, and a co-op just down the road from the cottage which seems to open exceptionally long hours, and a boutique icecream parlour called Spurreli's which is worth a visit. It really is a dog friendly place - our two are quite hyper and yet they were greeted with smiles by virtually everybody we met, people were extremely friendly generally, only one person didn't say 'hello' back the whole time we were there, and the Old Boat House serves the most amazing sea food. The kitchen has everything you would need, the oven is fairly simple but it works fine, good selection of pans and it's quite well stocked with the basics. There are no horror stories with this place - it is exactly as described. We had a lovely time there. Also - the booking service, Sykes Cottages - their opening hours were until 9.30pm, we rang them at 9.25pm, very apologetic at being so late, they were very friendly, took the trouble to check with the owners about whether two dogs would be acceptable, while we were on hold, and the follow up was also good - sending through instructions and confirmation by email, how to get there, and other useful bits of information."
"This is a fabulous little house to use as a base in Northumberland. It was warm and had very good facilities. I particularly liked sitting at the breakfast bar and watching everyone walking on the pier. Bamburgh is a 40 minute drive but the great beaches of Alnmouth, Walkworth and Druridge Bay are only minutes away. Amble had a great pier walk and its own beaches if you want to stay at home. Loved it!"
"2 BayView was all we wanted in our holiday cottage, not only was it very clean but had everything we needed to make our stay very relaxing . We were left a very welcome package of milk, bread ,eggs ,tea&coffe plus a bottle of wine , enough to start the week off and very useful after our long drive to Amble . The view from the breakfast bar come drinks bar was great and the sunset was straight out in front of the window , just prefect . Also shops were just a couple of minutes walk away and Amble harbour with it's new retail again just 5 minutes walk . Overall we really enjoyed our stay at Bay View ."
"Comfortable well equipt cottage with everything you need. Look out the kitchen over a lovely bay. The rims are very comfortable with a secluded garden well fenced so our dog could go out without any worry. Short walk to the harbour with exellant restaurant( the Old Boathouse ) the beaches are stunning all close by. If you are a dog owner the Pubs and Restaurants are dog friendly. We fully recommend this cottage."
"We stayed at 2 Bayview from 21st to 28th March.Everything was just perfect, a lovely welcome pack awaited us and the owners were fantastic in regards information on the area and where there if you needed them only a phone call away Amble is a beautiful place and the views from the house are stunning,you are only a short drive from Alnwick Castle where the Harry Potter films were made,also Holy Island is a nice place to visit. We could not fault the Holiday one bit and will definitely return there next year We can only give this holiday 10/10"
"Fantastic location for a quiet, tranquil Christmas - lovely walks on beach right outside front door with the towns facilities only 5 minutes walk away. Cottage is well equipped with log burner just right for settling in front of with a glass of wine - once the dog had been kicked out the way! Pet friendly, amiable neighbours, clean tidy and comfortable - we'll be back!"
"What a gem, cottage is very homely, very well equipped and situated in a idyllic spot over looking the bay. There is a log burner which came in very handy for evenings with a glass or two after long walks on the numerous beaches. Great restaurants and pubs within walking distance, people very friendly - we don't have a dog , but the cottage is suitable if you do, the area is great for dog walks and all the pubs are dog friendly. Good location for visiting the East Coast, Holy Island, Hadrians Wall and the Kielder Forest, we had booked for a stargazing night at Kielder but due to the weather - no stars !! Great help from the owners Jacqinta & Tim. Many Thanks for a very enjoyable few days R & R."
"This holiday let was in a very nice setting as the dog liked walking out of the front door and straight onto the beach area. After being out for the day it was nice to come back and sit with a cup of tea looking at the view from the large kitchen window."
"stayed 4 nights in this accomodation, and it's location cannot be beaten. The cottage is well presented, clean and welcoming. Would benefit from having a couple of armchairs and coffee tables, 2x 2 seater settees were adequate for a couple, but would have felt cramped if 4 adults were sharing the accomodation. Nevertheless would certainly recommend to anyone wanting a short breakaway at a competitive price, in a friendly. picturesque small fishing town with good transport links and interesting history."
"The owners are such friendly people that they alone made the booking and stay enjoyable - from the friendly tips on calling to arrange the key collection, the wonderful welcoming hamper (with home produced eggs) to the phone call when we arrived home to check all was well. The cottage itself is in a great place with the beach only 50m away, much to the extreme pleasure of our little dog, who couldn't get enough of it. Shops are about 200m away and a bit further for two pubs and a couple of takeaways. And then there is the Sunday market on the quayside, again only a couple of hundred metres away. The locality is all you expect from Northumberland with long sandy beaches and castles at every headland. Hope to go back again... need I say any more!"
"Our greyhound loved the cottage, the beaches and the friendly town, and so did we. We had great walks along the beaches and also to Warkworth. The Masons Arms in Warkworth is very welcoming to you and your dog. And does nice sandwiches and beer."
"A fab cottage with a homely feel. A perfect base for discovering Northumberland! We spoke on the phone to the owner Tim who was friendly & helpful, he advised of some great places locally. A Lovely welcome hamper was waiting in the cottage! Everything was clean, fresh and comfortable. It really did feel like a 'home from home' especially with the wifi access, washer/dryer and great central heating system. The location is perfect, overlooking the bay & pier. Great for people watching too! Idea for dogs as the beach is less than a minute walk away and all the dog walkers we met were friendly & chatty. When it went dark all the rabbits came out and were hopping about on the pavement outside! The back garden is a bird magnet with feeding tables etc, we enjoyed keeping them well fed for the week. The website photos don't do it justice at all, I'd recommend updating them. Three of us stayed here, myself, husband and 15 yr old daughter along with our Border Collie. We hope to return very soon."
"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."
"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! :)"
"Had a really good break here, the view at the front was wonderful and the back garden was private and would be fabulous in summer. Great log burner and the whole accomodation was very comfortable. Walk to pub, shops and village by turning left out of the front door, and miles and miles of sand dunes and cliffs, just turn right out of the front door, fab!! Very useful local walk guide in cottage, could take the dog, don't hesitate, you'll love it here."
"Cosy property with amazing views. Well equipped and very clean. Owners are exceptionally nice people and that's reflected in the generous welcome hamper.We found amble and its residents really welcoming and friendly. Fab walk starting up near Warksworth Golf Club which takes you right out along harbour defences opposite the property. Excellent lunch in said golf club.beaches at end of road, to the right, were a delight for us and our pooch."
"Cottage clean, comfortable and well equipped with 2 good sized bedrooms. It is situated in a great location overlooking a grassy picnic area + a small sandy beach and the estuary beyond it. Very convenient for walks along the beaches and coastal footpaths. Secure rear garden, good for dog/ small children. Local supermaket nearby with town centre a few minutes walk away. Quiet area at night. Owners friendly and helpful."
