Christon House Reviews

Oliver
We arrived to find the property quite clean overall, but it definitely needs a fresh coat of paint in several areas, which makes some parts look a bit unkempt. The wheelie bins were overflowing, which was a bit of a letdown, especially after getting a message asking if everything was okay. We responded but didn’t hear back about rubbish disposal. The location’s good for exploring by car, but not so much for walking. The fridge was tinyand there wasn’t much kitchen equipment, which was a shame. Still, a decent place overall.
Emma
Really enjoyed our stay! The beds were super comfyand the hot tub was a daily treat. The garden was perfect for the dogs.
Sarah Collins
We had a great stay at this lovely house, decorated to a high standard. It was super comfy and perfectly placed along the Northumbrian coast. The hot tub was a real treat after a day’s walk. The garden is peaceful, privateand perfect for dogs. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
Sam
We stayed at Chrisdon House with a big group - 7 adults, a toddlerand 3 dogs - and had a fantastic time! The location was perfect for exploring Cragside, Alnwick, Bamburghand Warkworth. It was spotless and well-equipped, with handy appliances like the dishwasher, washing machineand tumble dryer. The large TVs in the living rooms and bedrooms were a bonusand we enjoyed the hot tub a few times (even with colds!). Overall, a cracking week in a lovely spot. Highly recommend!
Emma
The house was stunning, with super comfy beds and big rooms. The hot tub was a real treat. Perfect for our dogs, safe and gated. Peaceful village. We had a wonderful family week!
Lisa
The location is perfect, right in the centre for exploring Northumberland. The garden is huge and secure, ideal for kids. The hot tub is a lovely touch after a day out. Plenty of kitchen stuff too, which was handy.
James
We really enjoyed our stay here. The place was super comfy and well-equipped, with a massive hot tub ready when we arrived-perfect after a long drive. The lounge was spaciousand the big TV was a bonus for the kids. Beds were huge and comfy, which everyone loved. The location is lovely and peaceful, ideal for a relaxing break. We had a couple of minor issues, but the team sorted them quickly and kept us well-informed. Definitely recommend!
Emma
We found the place super comfy with lovely furnishings. Everything was spotless, including the garden and hot tub - really well looked after. Christon Bank is perfect for exploring Northumberland, with loads of stunning spots nearby. Definitely a great base for a trip!
James
Really enjoyed our stay, the house was stunning and super comfy!
Emily
We stayed at this lovely place, but honestly, some areas feel a bit tired and could do with a refresh to make it perfect. The peace was great, though we were kept awake early by pigeons nesting in the climbing hydrangea outside the bedroom window. We had to keep the windows open because the central heating was unpredictable and made the rooms stuffy. Also, a garden delivery guy arrived early in the morning, asking for cash or card, which was a bit annoying on holiday. Still, the house itself had charm.
Rachel
We had such a great time! The house was perfect for my friend's hen weekend, close to the beach for lovely walks. It’s really well stocked and in a peaceful, nice spot.
Emma

This place was fantastic for a chill-out holiday! The garden was perfect for our dogsand we really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and cosy log burner after long days out. Highly recommended!
Emma
We loved the cosy, spotless house and super comfy beds. The location is stunning, though the kitchen lacked some utensils. Still, overall a fantastic stay, definitely recommend to friends!
Emma
We recently stayed here and were really impressed. The house was beautifully renovated and felt very cosy. It had everything we neededand the hot tub was a lovely added treat. The garden was a great size and totally secure for our two little dogs, which was a huge plus. Plenty of space for our group of eight adults, though the upstairs shower room was a tad cramped. The location was spot on, close to lovely beaches and scenic walks. Seahouses had a good co-op and fantastic fish and chips at Lewis’s. We’d definitely come back!
Emma
We stayed for a week with our family of six, spanning generations. The house is quite spacious and pretty functional, though not luxury. The kids loved the garden play equipment and the hot tub was definitely a highlight. Christon Bank has very little in terms of shops or cafes, so you need to drive to Embleton for essentials - Sainsburys does deliver, which helps. We really enjoyed Embleton beach, but beware of the early morning cockerel waking you up if your bedroom window’s open!
James Carter
We loved this spacious house, especially the great location. The garden is secure now, perfect for kids and dogs. Inside, it’s modern and super comfy, ideal for family get-togethers in the large living room or cosy spots like the bedrooms and dining area with TVs. The downstairs family bathroom is a real treat with a luxurious shower and bath. We'd definitely recommend it and plan to come back next year. Absolutely loved our stay!
Emma Clarke
We had a lovely stay at this bright and clean cottage. The location is perfect for exploring the areaand the village’s peaceful vibe made it very relaxing. It’s a quiet spot, which we really appreciated. Just a heads up, there’s no BBQ, so maybe bring your own if you fancy one. The garden isn’t fully enclosed-dogs and kids can get around to the front easily, especially with the hedge. Also, the gravel paths and steps might be tricky for some with mobility issues, so plan accordingly. Overall, a charming place!

With easy access from the A1 this lovely farm just north of Berwick makes a fantastic family day out.  Follow the farm trail and meet an array of friendly farm animals.  Kids will also enjoy the indoor and outdoor play areas, pet barn and tractor circuit.  The admission fee is excellent value and you will get a free bag of food for the animals and a bag of fish food for the trouts in the fish pond. When you want a bite to eat, the licensed restaurant is the place to go with quality home cooking and a charming location in some of the converted farm buildings.
