This was an excellent property, ideally placed for the beach and the village where everything is pet friendly, we have had a great weekend made all the better by the comfort of the house

A lovely stay in large house, not far from beautiful beach with great surrounding countryside. As it was winter when we stayed, the house was freezing on arrival, but did heat up by the next day. Maybe heating could be on prior to arrival?

Lovely, roomy and comfortable. Excellent facilities and very well and generously equipped kitchen. Had some lovely walks on the beach and Alnmouth is a very pretty village. Hope and Anchor very welcoming and tolerant of dog and small children. Definitely suitable for families. Can imagine small front and back gardens with tables and chairs works well in the summer. We had a successful BBQ on 21st!

We had a lovely time in beautiful Alnmouth. The accommodation was perfect. Great location, clean and spacious. Definitely be back.

The holiday was booked for 6 adults, 3 youngsters between 4 and 9 and 1 infant, oh and 2 dogs. The house is a large 3 storey terraced building on a quiet street with views of the estuary. The living room with its 3 large sofas and large tv very comfortable and this leads into a large dinning room which was easily large enough for us all. The kitchen was smaller than expected and during our stay, even though we made agents aware, we only had 1 oven working. The rest of the house worked well with large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. On our arrival late on Friday evening, there was no hot water, and after a couple of phone calls an engineer was sent over Saturday morning to rectify. The on street parking was fine, just ensure you keep the parking permits in the cars over night! Alnmouth town is real gem, with some good independent shops, pubs and restaurants. The beach is long and even though there is car park, very quiet. If you play golf, bring your clubs and play the 2nd oldest course in England. There are lots of things to do in the area, with some great castles, i.e, Alnwick with its links with Harry Potter, beaches and other fishing villages to visit. Overall a great holiday, and good value.

The house was perfect for our multi-generation family vacation. The location was great with the easy walk to the beach. Access to Alnwick made getting supplies easy with the ability to get a few quick things in town. The parking on the bank holiday weekend was a bit tricky but the rest of the week was no problem. Beds were all comfortable and clean. There was occasionally a bit of noise from the street during the day but the night was incredibly quite. Would stay there again if back in the area.

The property is adequate rather than ‘luxury’. Good location for access to the beach. Some arrangements unnecessarily complicated by differences in information from VRBO and proprietor., e.g. VRBO states arrival details will be posted to my account in VRBO website so I repeatedly looked for them there, while proprietor sent them directly with a notification that I didn’t see on my receipt for final payment - it was easy to overlook, particularly when previously prompted to look elsewhere. Because the arrival details were sent with a commercial email address they got lost with 3000 other emails in the gmail ‘promotions’ folder. In addition, one set of instructions gave a check-out time of 9.30 while another stated 10.00. In either case, this is too early, especially given that subsequent guests cannot enter until 5.00. In most other cottages I have stayed in, departure time is 11.00 which is much more acceptable. Other than minor frustrations like this, the stay was satisfactory overall.

A few hiccups with water heating downstairs and bins not being emptied but these were soon rectified. All in all a great success .

Superb holiday set in the most idyllic location.. perfect for a seaside holiday with children .. house is very comfortable and well equipped.. the only draw back would be the parking as inevitability we had more than 2 cars using the permits .. that aside we would definitely come back!

This turned out better than we expected. This is a good sized house that caters well for groups up to 10. Just a couple of virtually traffic free minutes to the beach and street parking that never let us down, though not necessarily close to the house. The house was well stocked with cutlery and crockery and the whole experience was a very comfortable and satisfactory experience. Next year could be Alnmouth too.

Accommodation as described, in close proximity to promenade. Enjoyed my stay.

We all thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this stay; the beds were comfy, the kitchen was very well equipped, the sofas comfy and the decor fresh and light. We all agreed we'd be coming back and wished our stay was longer! A really wonderful stay, thank you!

We enjoyed our stay

Nice property in a great location, good size for our group (10) The only problem was with "hot water" this was mentioned in the visitors book by a previous occupant. There are three bathrooms in the property but only one had hot water to the bath and the bathroom on the top floor had no hot water in any tap. The only hot water in the on suit was through the shower. At nearly £400 a night you expect hot water out of every tap.. Shame, it is a lovely place to stay though.

This is a large, comfortable, well-maintained house on a beautiful stretch of coast. We had a fine time here - many thanks.

Really lovely house, perfect size for us. We stayed here as a group of adults and found the rooms a good size. The kitchen is well equipt but we found it could have done with a deep clean as some of the drawers and cupboards were a bit grubby.

We were 6 adults and 3 children. The accommodation was ideal for our combination, apart fom one double bedroom being a little small. The ability to open the doors between the dining and sitting rooms was nice. It was cosy even though the weather was a little cool for the time of year. Kitchen and bathroom facilities were good. The area was ideal for our group. The 7, 8 and 9 years olds enjoyed Alnwick Castle and Gardens, and a trip to the beach. There are a number of pubs for eating out in the village within easy walking distance. A trip to Craster provided some lovely smoked fish for a celebratory meal starter at home. A good venue for a family get together.

A lovely old stone built terraced building in the lovely seaside village of Alnmouth. The property is spacious and comfortable and well equipped with a small patio to the back of the property with seating area and BBQ. It is in a great location just minutes away from the beach and the estuary of the river Aln. A great area for walking, bird watching or just relaxing on the beach. The village itself is very quaint with good pubs and eateries and some local shops. The village is quiet but the can get quite busy in the evening so worth booking a table somewhere if you plan to eat. There's plenty to explore in Northumberland and on the coast and Newcastle is only 30 minutes away on the train. We had a great time here for a family get together and highly recommend Lindores for a holiday stay in Northumberland.

Spacious house close to all amenities and the beach in this lovely village. Photos were true to the reality. Small patio style garden lacked a table large enough for 10 which would be necessary for a bbq in good weather.

Three generations (11 people ) enjoyed our week's stay at Lindores. The house was spacious and comfortable.

We have used owners direct in several parts of the world always been impressed This time however whilst the house was in a lovely location we found that the house was not as clean as expected, e.g carpets in bedroom did not appear to have been swept and were in fact quite grubby. Two sets of ceiling lights did not work at all, the refrigerator was grubby and the dirt at the bottom of the unit told us it was quite some time since it had been cleaned. Several areas had paint peeling off the walls, the kitchen units were in need of a clean and a lick of paint. All in all we were disappointed with the general cleanliness and decorative condition of the house
