Kellie
This was a truly lovely property in a lovely seaside town. The hosts were amazing and incredibly accommodating and helpful (they even left us a lovely welcome basket on arrival).
Asha
We loved our stay. Property was better than what it looks on the photos. Highly recommended !
Carole
No. 7 Windward is a stunning property incredibly designed and decorated. From the floors to the walls it has been done to perfection. The kitchen is superb. The en-suite bedrooms are fabulous but the best is the lounge and terrace on the second floor. Not to mention the spa bath with tv. Amble is the perfect location for visiting areas of NorthumbeRead morerland. Enjoyed a mixed weather week here going to different restaurants to eat Hide
Patricia
This is a very well - presented modern property which was a comfortable base for our visit to Northumberland. The heating system was very effective - a bonus during a week when outside temperatures were low. We enjoyed the spacious living areas and en suite bedrooms. The utility area near the rear entrance was a useful place to shed outdoor coats aRead morend shoes. The centre of Amble with its shops and restaurants is a short stroll away while Alnwick and the coastal villages are within easy reach. Hide
