Hot Tub
Bedrooms: 2
This annexe is attached to the owner's main house in the coastal town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, at the most northernly tip of Northumberland. Well-presented across two floors, this deceptively large annexe makes a great holiday base for families eager to uncover Northumberland. Upon arrival you are greeted with parking at the front but wander to the rear enclosed garden to the entrance. Dust off those cooking books and enjoy a home-cooking session in the kitchen, fitted with contemporary appliances and sleek units, before making yourself at home in the lounge, complete with dual aspect windows to offer a bright and airy feel. Completing the ground-floor is a delightful conservatory/dining room, along with a handy shower room where you can freshen up after a long day.

The Annexe Reviews

This Annexe is a beautiful holiday home in a fabulous setting. It is very well equipped and very clean and comfortable. The welcome pack provided by the owner was a unexpected bonus Could of really done with the outside light to be working in back garden and lighting down the side of property this would have scored a 10 out of 10. However due to the lighting issue we had to buy a torch so we could see.our dog in the dark. Also unable to use the hot tub due to poor lighting. Overall this would not deter us from booking to stay again or recommending accommodation to friends and family.
My wife and I stay in at least 3 Sykes Holiday Cottages a year and this is one of the best, mattresses and sofas where very comfortable, heating and showers first class, just like home.
Very nice holiday home. Warm and cosy. Close to the beach where you can walk your dogs. Beautiful views from the cliffs next to the golf course, there is a path leading to another sandy beach. There is everything you need here and the jacuzzi bath was a great addition. We spent some fantastic days here. Thank you to the hosts for the welcome pack we are already planning to come back in the spring
Lovely comfortable holiday accommodation
The holiday property was excellent and suited our requirements perfectly. It was well equipped, cosy and warm. Any problems were dealt with quickly by the owners who were very welcoming and helpful.
Very happy with the Annexe and would readily recommend it.
Bethany
A real home from home feel! Beautifully kept and spotlessly clean, we came to visit our granny who lives on Spittal sea front so was the perfect location for us and we will absolutely stay here when we come again. Thank you!
Gillian
Beautiful, clean property in perfect location. Had a wonderful time. Only one suggestion, there was moment hairdryer, which wasnt a big problem as we were able to purchase one for our use in the nearby Tesco.
Christine
What amazing little gem. Beautiful inside and outside . Walking distance from town. Lovely unique shops and cafes. But the annex of this house was very nice designed. Home from home plenty of parking very friendly neighbours. Yes I would go back.
A very comfortable, immaculate property in a very convenient location for walking into Berwick or accessing the A1 for trips out.
Just spent two weeks at the Annexe. This was one of the best properties we've stayed in. It's very well equipped and comfortable. The hosts were very friendly too. Plenty of room for the two of us and a lovely welcome basket. It's very convenient for the town and station and also very close to the A1. Lots to see and do in the area. We'll definitely be back for another stay in the future.
We have just returned yesterday from a weeks break at the Annexe in Berwick. What a fantastic place to stay in a beautiful area. The Annexe has every comfort you need with a lovely enclosed garden and hot tub. We have been holidaying with Sykes for years, this is one of the nicest places we have stayed. Many Thanks

Really liked the property but it was advertised with a ground floor bedroom ... Really liked the property but it was advertised with a ground floor bedroom which was the reason we booked it due to sister's mobility issues, but both bedrooms were upstairs
Christine
The house is so comfortable and immaculate . Everything you need is provided and we had a great stay . Would definitely go back .
Absolutely outstanding property and is really well presented. The property is located a short walking distance into town and there is a pleasant walk along the riverside to keep you away from traffic. I would definitely recommend this property
Gerald
Property in a very good location both for access into Berwick and to the A1 for travelling further afield. Was very warm and welcoming to come back to on dark winter evenings. Furniture in the lounge area was a bit minimal there were just 2 of us, if 4 people were staying seating would be a bit limited and there was no side table or shelving to put our books and maps etc on. An electrical problem during our stay was dealt with very quickly and efficiently. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again when we come back to the area.
Jennifer
Spent 5 days at the Annexe, Lovely welcome basket, very clean and well equipped with everything you need. In a good location for visiting the local area and further afield. Would definitely recommend.
The Annexe was an excellent place to stay it was comfortable and well equipped. As we were visiting relatives it was ideal for us. The welcome basket was appreciated and a nice touch. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it.
The Annexe was an amazing holiday home in a great location which was also peaceful and quiet too. The house is so modern and clean with all the facilities you could possibly need during your stay. Its just like home from home and was exactly what we wanted. Relaxing on the lovely comfortable sofa watching the huge tv after a day of walking and exploring was just perfect. The enclosed garden was a lovely safe place for our dog to roam about also. The owners were so helpful and made us feel so welcome and the welcome pack was such a lovely extra touch that was much appreciated. The walk along the river nearby was lovely and so close and an easy walk into town to the walls, parks, pier and beach and a lovely walk along the tops looking out to the sea with the golf course on the other side. I would highly recommend the Annexe for a lovely relaxing break, perfect for families and dogs. Thank you for an amazing holiday.
Adrian
Very little to complain about. Very very comfortable, I would be delighted to stay here again. Absolutely perfect for a couple with two children or two couples. Minor things No wastepaper bins in the bedrooms, no hairdryer and perhaps a small table in the TV room which is really spacious for putting drinks on. Absolutely paranoid about spoiling the furniture!!
Hi we thought the Annex was amazing very clean and was very well equipped it is ... Hi we thought the Annex was amazing very clean and was very well equipped it is in a great location not far from the town or river walks and local pubs The owners were lovely we could not have chosen a better place to stay thank you for the generous welcome pack
Samantha
We had a fabulous time! The property was beautiful, modern and extremely clean. The enclosed garden was perfect for our little westie, and apologies if she barked a little in her new surroundings. I couldnt fault this holiday cottage in any way. Close to town, parking, a little stroll to the train station and close to the main road without any road noise brilliant for exploring. We popped to Bamburgh, Eyemouth, Lindisfarne, Edinburgh and Alnwick. It was wonderful to wake up in such an airy property to the sound of birdsong! Wed love to visit again.
Wonderful holiday! We were absolutely thrilled with the accommodation. It was light, bright, spacious and immaculately clean. Very good communication from the owners and a lovely welcome pack. Would highly recommend. Lovely part of the world to explore with lots to do in the area. We will be back, thank you
Lauran
Our stay at The Annex was lovely and the owners thought of everything, even down to leaving some toys for our little girl to play with for our stay and some treats for our dog. Youre super close to the town centre which is great too and not far from Spittal Beach. It was such a lovely stay!
Elizabeth
Lovely property. Light and airy, with a view of Cheviot in the distance. Half a mile from the town centre and railway station, and close to a big Morrisons. Although a modern property anyway, the Annex has recently been renovated, with new furniture and furnishings, including all new sanitary wear. Couldn't fault it.

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.
Alnwick Castle and Gardens - NE66 1NQ
about 28 Miles
Alnwick Castle and Gardens today are perhaps best known for their roles as Hogwarts in Harry Potter movies but have for many years been a family favourite attraction in Northumberland. The beautiful medieval castle is open to the public and during school holidays and at Christmas and Halloween a range of activities can be enjoyed including Santa's Workshop, a Pumpkin Parade, Spell Making Lessons and Owl and Bird of Prey Flying.
