This is our second stay at Beach Retreat and we had a really good stay. The cottage is spacious and comfortable and previous feedback on heat settings, which are controlled remotely, seem to have been addressed and the cottage was comfortable all day.

It is juRead morest 20 meters or so to the beach and there are great views out to sea and to the wildlife ponds if the weather is allows you to sit outside. We managed to on three days in March which was lucky. You are well place to visit places up and down the coast and you have a great pub in Low Newton and a good pub/rrestaurant just up the road. We will definitely be coming back again. Hide

The cottage is lovely and in the most fantastic location. It has been really nicely revamped and we appreciated the extra space. It is lovely and clean and well equipped and a stones throw from the beach and a fantastic pub. It would be nice to have more control over the heating.

The cottage is in an ideal position overlooking the beach, with exotic country walks and a few metres away from a delightful small pub (with its own brewery) that does delightful meals. What more could anyone ask for!

A beautifully presented, extremely comfortable and very well-equipped cottage in a stunning location - between the beach and dunes paths. The bird life and the wild flowers are a delight.

Great location and well equipped but not being able to control the heating a big NO NO. If you pay this much for a property you expect to be able to control the heating so that, for example, if you stay in on a cool day you can have some heat. Pity as a great location and otherwise well equipped cottage with just a very short walk to the beach. OurRead more advice take a fan heater. Hide

Lovely cottage with everything you need apart from food and drink - provided. Unfortunately, the storage heaters throughout are remotely controlled by the owners who are not contactable 24/7 to resolve any changes needed in order to have a warm or cool cottage when you need. We ended up having to borrow three fan heaters from the very helpful managRead moreer, Lois. At night, a couple of our group had to open their bedroom windows due to the heat!! Fab location.

An extremely well equipped and comfortable property in a unique location. You are almost on the beach which changes character according to the tides and with a great view across to Dunstanburgh Castle in the distance. A very comfortable living space - expansive sofas and a TV with a range of channels and a well equipped kitchen. There is an outsideRead more space - south facing with outdoor furniture and canvas chairs that you can take onto the beach. A pub round the corner along with the coastal path. Hide

Beach Retreat is a lovely property in a fantastic location which weve visited a number of times. Its had a great refurbishment, but it has lost its home from home feel. No games etc for poor weather days and little local information. A Visitor Book to share ideas would help. Difficult to keep sand outside if youre using wetsuits. Beware - in early Read moreJuly there was a lot of broken glass on the beach nearest the house. Hide
