"Arrived back to my room to find the entire corridor had lost power no working sockets, meaning no TV, no kettle, no way to charge devices. Spoke to another couple on the same floor experiencing the same issue. Called the hotel and was told the nearest staff member was approximately 1 hour 45 minutes away in Edinburgh and to speak to reception in the morning. I ended up sitting in the breakfast area charging my phone, which isn’t exactly what you expect from a paid stay. When I raised it, I was told the power had likely tripped due to the storm and that “someone must have plugged something in they shouldn’t have”, yet nothing was done about it despite them identifying the probable cause. I was also told that they’re “a guesthouse, not a hotel” and I was the only one who complained by quite a defensive member of staff the next morning and therefore don’t offer 24/7 cover. Interesting you’re charging hotel prices over a bank holiday weekend. You can’t market yourself as one thing and downgrade your responsibilities when something goes wrong. Towels were also lacking and the TV had issues beyond the power outage by not being securely attached, I couldn’t use it anyway. The location and setting are lovely, but the service fell well short of what you’d expect for the price. A hotel (or guesthouse, sorry), should have basic contingency arrangements in place, especially over one of the busiest weekends of the year. Awaiting a reply to get my refund, I would imagine others are too."

"Cute and cosy inn! We enjoyed our stay here, and the food and drink was excellent. Staff were also great, and the location couldn’t be better. The only issue was a lot of noise coming through from other rooms, waking us up."

"Excellent. Located right next to the bus stops to/from Berwick and Newcastle. Nicely accommodated. Easy check in. Close to shops and restaurants. Would highly recommend. "

"Lovely B and B with a beautiful clean room and friendly owners. Good breakfast in the morning. Plenty of hot water. Room 1 has fabulous views over the fields and across to the sea and a nice big bath. Thanks for a lovely stay."

"Great location just yards from the beach, as base for visiting nearby attractions such as bamburgh castle and Cragside. Rocky in parts but otherwise golden sand beach and again short walk to Seahouses. Just lovely seaside resort. Hotel staff friendly and food excellent with choice of dining room or lounge to relax. Would stay again."

"The property was ideally situated just a short walk from the shops and town centre. It was small but comfortable with everything needed for your stay. Even although the weather was cold at night, once the fire was on for a short time, the place became very cosy. The only issue would be parking near the property. I found a space in the nearby street. This was fine as it was still close. Being early in the season this might have been easy but perhaps during peak times it might be more tricky."

"Very clean and comfortable! "
