Winding Wheel Cottage Reviews

Joanne
Beautiful property, plenty of space for 2 adults, 2 teenagers and a dog, excellent location right next to the beach. Would definitely return.
Winding Wheel cottage was a delightful holiday home. So cosy and warm with great space. The enclosed front and rear gardens were so good for my two dogs. Was not expecting it to be decorated for Christmas so that was a joy. Along with the most super welcome hamper our stay here was terrific. My dogs particularly loved the beach and cliff top walks right opposite. Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat .
Amazing spacious property. Comfy beds & everything we needed. Fantastic location. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. We will definitely be coming back!!
Gordon
Winding Wheel Cottage, what can I say? Location Literally a stones throw from the beach. Far enough from the hubub to be quiet but supermarkets within 10 minutes drive. Right next door to a pub and chippy, heaven. House itself What an incredible property. Very large and well equipped kitchen diner, large comfortable sitting room, 2 double bedrooms and a single and the master bedroom is literally a suite in itself. Can't recommend this property highly enough, will definitely be back
WOW, what a fantastic cottage. We were looking for a large comfortable cozy cottage by the sea and we found it. The location is wonderful, 2 minutes walk to the beach where both the kids and the dog loved. The cottage is super comfortable, extremely clean and well appointed. We had everything we needed for an excellent holiday.
Robert
This is the second time we have stayed at Winding wheel cottage, we really like the cottage and area we found the cottage to be just as good this time as last time. There was one small problem dealt with by Chris very quickly, thanks for that. We had a good stay in a comfortable place and a relaxing time.
Davina
This is an amazing property. everything you could need is available. Space is a premium, modern and in a quiet location next to a superb beach. We have to say this one of our best properties used through Sykes. Would recommend for comfort and views. Enjoyed our stay and some great walks. The amazing welcome pack was also a bonus.
Really great place. Lots of especially nice features in the house such as the deep set windows and the original stone work visible in some parts. The kitchen was very well appointed and had everything we needed for cooking and baking. All the rooms were very nicely decorated with lots of nice finishing touches. The front and back garden areas were great too.. completely secure for the dogs this can be difficult to find It is in such a great spot too.. the dogs had a great time at the beach and the locals are really friendly. This is definitely the best holiday home I've rented so far. Has everything youd need
Lesley
Love this house! We have stayed in Blyth for several years and this is our favourite place yet, we booked again with two days of being there. Its very large, very well equipped and clean. Close to the beach and dog friendly. We couldnt fault it. Only thing I would add is some milk to the welcome pack, and a vegetable peeler for the kitchen. Thats it! Thank you.
Veronica
We enjoyed our stay at Winding Wheel Cottage. The cottage was spacious and the outdoor seating areas felt private, despite the close proximity of our neighbours. The kitchen was lovely and when we were not off sightseeing, we spent a lot of our time sitting round the table, eating and playing games. The beach was awesome and we had many enjoyable morning and evening walks.
A very spacious, luxurious and wellequipped property next to a lovely beach. The house had everything we needed and more. The welcome pack provided by the owners was well received thank you! Lovely and friendly neighbours. Walking straight out of the front door and on to the beach was great for the grand kids and dog who spent most of the time there and would definitely visit again. A fantastic week thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family, and highly recommend this property!
Great property and location, lovely welcome basket and facilities. So much to do nearby and very easy to get to and from the A1. We will definitely book again.
We had a brilliant time celebrating an 80th birthday. The cottage exceeded expectations by being so much closer to the beach than we thought, pub next door and right on the England Pathway for lovely walks up and down the coast. After a long drive to get there we had some car free days by catching the bus round the corner. The cottage was lovely great spaces to all be together or split off if we wanted. Would def book again.
Claire
The property provides the wow factor both on arrival outside and entry. Really wellappointed, we had absolutely everything we needed with a generous welcome pack, dishwasher and washing machine. Ideal for people with dogs as both the front and rear gardens are completely enclosed and the beach is just over the road. Northumberland is probably the best area we've visited in terms of dogfriendly beaches and attractions. If you love walking this is a great base and you can also easily access the Northumberland Coastal Path. The garden is a beautiful afternoon sun trap so whether you're looking to be out and about Alnwick, Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, Seahouses and many more or to just relax in beautiful surroundings, then we would highly recommend this cottage.
The cottage is stunning , a lovely welcome pack on our arrival was a nice touch and got demolished
Caroline
Absolutely lovely. .all needs catered for. One brought a air fryer with us and didn't even need it as one was provided! Very spacious and in a perfect spot. We had a wonderful time and wouldn't hesitate to return. I do think that a surface cleaner and handwash would be useful and 2 tea towels rather than the one. Much appreciated and very thankful we got to experience this beautiful cottage
Heather
This is a wonderful property. We stayed in the Xmas break and it had the added benefit of being dressed beautifully for Xmas. We loved it so much that we rebooked whilst we were still away. That speaks for itself. It has everything you need, layout is well thought out and loads of space for everyone in the family to find there own space whilst still enjoying being together. The location of the property is over perfect for exploring Northumberland or just going for frequent works along the beach.
Lindsay
Lovely well equipped cottage, with a lovely log burner which kept us warm and cosy. The welcome basket was a lovely touch, and was much appreciated. The close proximity to the beach and surrounding walks were ideal for the dogs. We had a lovely stay, and would recommend.
Lovely house. Everything you need. The welcome hamper was a lovely surprise as well as the Christmas decorations
Absolutely fantastic cottage right by the sea and pub the house was huge and decorated lovely nice garden for the summer months They left a lovely filled welcome basket and towels which we were very grateful for as we forgot ours. There where lots of little extras around the house which helped with our stay. If I had to nic pick at anything it would be a radio in kitchen and a rug in living room as floor was very cold , would definitely like to return Thanks
Robert
Winding wheel cottage was all and more than shown, the photos don't do the place justice. A beautiful well appointed cottage. We couldn't find any scisors in the kitchen, but that's just us being picky. The rooms are fantastic and the whole stay was when we went out we were glad to be back. Fabulous stay welcome packs, yes packs, all over if we can book it again we will be back. We were sorry to come home and leave sutch a nice cottage.
This was a wonderful cottage. It was so clean and warm. The showers were amazing and the furnishings were so comfortable. It had almost everything we needed. The kitchen is missing tongs, a whisk, and scissors and ideally the knives need sharpening. Having the beach nearby was brilliant and even our arthritic Labrador reverted to puppyness which was just a joy to see. Thank you so much x
The property met all our expectations and more. The owners were exceptionally helpful and their property outstanding. It has everything you need to make your stay comfortable and instantly relaxing. The surrounding areas provide lovely areas to walk and lots of places to visit. We would highly recommend this property for a relaxing luxurious stay.
Nicola
We had a lovely few days at the cottage. It was very spacious and furnished to a high standard with everything you could need. We enjoyed the proximity to a fabulous beach for the dogs and also the Northumberland coastal path is nearby with lots of other pathways nearby for walking, running or cycling. It was a part of Northumberland we hadn't explored before but we would definitely return to the area and the house.
Winding Wheel Cottage is a wonderful venue. It was well appointed, extremely clean and very comfortable. The hosts have got to considerable trouble to make sure your stay is memorable.
Lorraine

Lovely cottage,checkout is the early. Heating didn't seem to connect after 1st day. Dontbthink you should have to strip beds a holiday is a holiday. Great position for the beach
This property is exactly as described and was a great place to stay, the welcome hamper was a lovely touch, and Chris the owner couldn't have been more helpful. It was clean and comfortable throughout. Great location the beach is directly across the road and the pub virtually next door served lovely food. An excellent base to explore the nearby coast, Alnwick, and further afield. Would definitely recommend and would like to return.
Lovely property with fantastic sea views. The beach is fab for a walk with the dogs. Easy access to other parts of Northumberland and the pub next door serves fantastic food and is a good atmosphere. The property has everything you need for a holiday property including all cooking utensils etc and even an air fryer!! All in all a really fantastic property and we had a wonderful stay, would recommend.
We had a lovely holiday and the property is amazing. You couldn't ask for more, spotlessly clean, comfy beds and sofa's, great bathrooms, and so well equipped. The location is perfect, lovely and quiet and a great beach opposite. Fantastic view's from the cottage and lot's of places to sit and relax outside. One of the best properties I have stayed in, can't wait to go back!.
Michelle
Beautiful house. Extremely comfortable and welcoming. Good place to start from to explore Northumberland. Love the fact that the beach was across the road. A clean sandy beach that goes in forever, the dogs were in there element. There was a very well stocked welcoming basket with alsorts if everything in it. A nice touch was when the owner made a quick visit to make sure we were ok and that we had found out how to work everything. A pub right next door, what more could you want.
Fantastic accommodation. Very clean and homely. Lovely beach across the road. Great location for exploring the region.
Katrina
Really lovely cottage. It had everything we wanted, the beach on the doorstep, a pub next door and the accommodation was above anything we have stayed at before on Sykes. Every time we opened the door it felt warm and welcoming, if I could have picked it up and brought it home I would have. Chris was very welcoming and I would recommend getting your firewood from him.
Jacqui
We had an amazing weekend at winding wheel, it is beautifully furnished and had an overall cozy feel. With 2 dogs, it is ideally located 2 minutes from the beach. The welcome pack was extremely generous and we loved the log burner. We will definitely back.
Exceptional property located 30 second walk to the beach dog friendly and pub ... Exceptional property located 30 second walk to the beach dog friendly and pub Immaculate inside and out with plenty of parking Could do with a few pint glasses
