This upside down house was lovely to stay in. The views are lovely from the sitting room, across the fields. The furnishings are a little dated and tired and outside the bedroom could do with an update. The parking outside the property is a great addition.

Great location in heart of town but still secluded and private. Offering great views across common to River Blyth. Leave the car and enjoy walks around town and coast with everything so accessible on foot.

The property was ideally placed in the centre of town but in a quiet location just off the High Street. The house was fully equipped to support the stay and very comfortable both in the lounge dinner and bedrooms

Would define rly recommend this place! The location is ideal, right in the center of town and within easy walking distance to both shops and the beach. The home had all the essentials, including a coffee machine with pods, and the beds were so comfy!

Lovely place very much enjoyed the layout with the lounge upstairs with a good view and great location. If you have a shaggy dog fur will get left on the carpets. Very comfortable
