The welcome pack was a very nice thought. The Croft was everything we expected and more. Hares and deer seen in the field to the rear. Really enjoyed our stay.

An excellent property in a well situated location. The Croft was extremely well equipped and clean ( they had thought of everything!). The extra touches were much appreciated ( welcome hamper, toys and games) Beautiful decor and home comforts. Would definitely return.

We had a perfect week here at The Croft. Everything we needed was here and the cottage is perfect for a family with teenagers. We recommend the Joiners Arms in Newton and The Jolly Fisherman in Craster, some good meals out. Trips to Lindisfarne and Craigside were great! Beadnell Beach has miles of sand to walk on.
