Arkle house
Lovely bungalow and a credit to Barbara. Spotless and located in Amble about 10 minutes from the harbour area. Parking is a bit tight as the property is on an estate road, but with the help of kind neighbours we managed our two cars absolutely fine. Would highly recommend and would happily book again if we returned to the area. 👍

Place was clean and beautifully furnished, had pretty much everything we needed. The welcome pack was much appreciated and the information pack was very useful. I had an issue with the heating (totally user-error) and Barbara responded to me very quickly. The house is ideally located for touring round Northumberland.

We loved our stay at Ankle house. The property is the cleanest rental house we have ever stopped in and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The welcome hamper with fresh scones was a lovely touch. The owners are helpful and communication was great. Amble and the local area is beautiful. We'd definitely return and would highly recommend.

Wonderful
Ankle house was immaculate and had everything we needed plus the bonus of a lovely welcome pack for us and the dog. We had no problems whatsoever during our weekend and would highly recommend the house. The location was good and we went to various places. A tip for those with a dog who can’t do hills or dunes, there is an easy access beach at Alnmouth however it is £3.50 per day or £10 per week. But we felt it was well worth the money to see our dog run. Mary

A lovely comfortable place to stay
We loved it here. Good communication from the owners making it an easy check in. The cottage is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The garden is very safe and secure for dogs even for little escape artists like ours. Well located with lots of local amenities and shops in walking distance. A great base for exploring Northumberland. Can highly recommend.

Perfect little bungalow
We had a lovely stay at Arkle house. It's a very comfortable, well equipped ( better than most), exceptionally clean property. A plus for us was the peaceful private dog proof garden which our dog, Eddie, loved. An old fashioned sort of area which suited us as so are we! Nice friendly neighbours too.

Cosy holiday home
The property is clean comfortably furnished particularly the beds, so many holiday let’s are let down by hard uncomfortable beds and sofas, but not Arkle House. The garden is properly dog friendly and is a great place to relax with a glass of wine. Would definitely return.

A much needed seaside Holiday
It was a spacious and very nicely furnished bungalow.Everywhere was spotless and there were treats for the dog as well as adults.Barbara really thought about everything needed and more to make a really joyful and carefree stay. Everything worked. It was a 10 minute pleasant walk to the high street where there are cafes, super charity shops, food shops and boutiques. Harbour's at the end of the high street with bespoke shopping Shacks. Plenty eateries and really good fish and chips takeaways. Perfect seaside village, Perfect bungalow and perfect host …Fairytale stay x
