The booking process on line was easy. Communications with owner were quickly responded too and informative. Payment was simple on-line. Premises were perfect for our party of 10 people with plenty of space so that you were never on top of each other. The games room was an added bonus.

Family Break
The perfect location for sightseeing the Northumberland coast. The property was ideal for our three families and exactly as described. We have stayed in a number of properties but the amenities at the cottage were superb and far outweighed any we have previously visited. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Samantha and her family for all the hard work and effort in allowing us to stay here and have a great holiday. Nevil Ashcroft and family

All weather , all ages
The teenagers loved the games room and the variety of rooms available meant that everyone had personal space but could come together for meals. A fully equipped kitchen and large fridge was much appreciated, as were the arrival treats .The cake was delicious . Location is good for beaches and towns, and every leaflet,booklet and menu was available for local attractions. Even the set of binoculars on the shelf was a thoughtful detail . A fantastic week away with every type of weather , including some amazing thunderstorms and lots of sunshine . Thanks x

Wonderful spacious property, warm and welcoming, perfect for our 3 generations and furry friends.
We have had a wonderful week in Shepherd's cottage - what a gem of a place and with hosts who have thought of everything to make it home from home. A homemade cake on arrival was a fantastic greeting and Steve talked us through all the important bits (keys, heating, outside spaces and rooms) but left us to explore on our own, which was fab. One bedroom (sleeping 3) is off on it's own, next to the main lounge, which was great for us who liked to get up earlier than the rest as we didn't disturb anyone else. Great that all the rooms were en suite too. The lovely farmhouse kitchen, with seating at a table for 10, is a brilliant space for coming together at mealtimes, even if we were eating different things! Lovely big conservatory too which we used for board games and chill out space. We also had a go in the BBQ hut, which is really cosy and gets lovely and warm once the coals are lit. Great for us too was the bike store - got a 14 and 24 mile ride in on a couple of days. Some of the back lanes are lovely and quiet. And I ran 3 times during the week too, so the washing machine came in very handy :-) Beadnell beach is 15 mins walk away, or 3 mins in the car, great free parking in a lot of these coastal spots. Seahouses, Bamburgh, Alnwick all visited, as was Dunstanburgh castle, Berwick upon Tweed and Holy Island. All in all, a fabulous stay. Tried to book for next year's Autumn half term, but it's already booked out - I can't say I'm surprised! Thank you Sam and Steve, and best of luck with your new builds .... I definitely fancy trying those wood fired hot tubs! We will be back.

Fantastic home to discover Northumberland from :)
We booked the October school week with friends in Shepherd's Cottage, hoping to explore an area we did not know - what a fantastic base it turned out to be. The accommodation was more than we could have hoped for (4 adults and 3 'tween' girls) and we were made especially welcome by Sam and the lovely cake, chocolates and wine she left for us (as well as milk, tea, coffee ect.) There was also lots of very useful information on the local area. Shepherd's Cottage has everything and more you could want for a holiday home and was a fantastic place to spend time with friends ..... the girls even cooked for us one night and hosted a Murder Mystery game, which was great fun. We loved the BBQ hut and enjoyed cooking the great produce from the butcher in Bamburgh and the Games Room was well used. Beadnell is a short walk from the cottage and The Craster Arms pub does great food. We fell in love with the Northumberland coast - beautiful beaches, castles, great food, fantastic golf courses and friendly locals. The girls loved their day out to Alnwick Castle and learning the 'fly' a broomstick. We will definitely be back to explore some more and hope the weather will be as kind. Many thanks to Sam and family for making this a holiday with lots of memories. p.s. Many thanks to Sam for helping return a jacket we had left behind :)

Fantastic and comfortable accommodation with everything you would need. Excellent service.
Great accommodation for a weekend away catch up,with friends. All the rooms are warm and comfortable and there is lots of space to sit and catch up or for playing games. We really enjoyed the delicious cake which was there for us on arrival. All the rooms are well equipped, especially the kitchen which is a joy to cook and eat in. Any issues we had were dealt with promptly. This is now our 5th year of coming to Shepherd’s Cottage and we are booked again for next year.

Lovely cottage
Stayed here with 4 generations of our family to celebrate my daughter's 50th birthday. We were warmly greeted by Stephen who showed us around and explained everything we needed to know. There was a little note from Sam together with a gorgeous cake, bar of chocolate and a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge who could ask for more.The cottage was perfect for us and each bedroom having its own ensuite was a bonus for everyone getting organised in a morning. It is very well equipped and has everything you could possibly need. We spent most of our time in the conservatory on an evening and all members of the family used the games room with table tennis tournaments being played most evenings together with pool and darts leagues! We only watched tv one night to catch up on the last episode of Unforgotten! Lovely to spend quality family time together. The bbq hut is brilliant if a little dark and we all sat round chatting and laughing. This cottage is a beautiful comfortable base to return to after a day out and is central to all the local attractions. My granddaughter graduated from Northumbria university in July and so it seemed quite fitting that after driving a 6hour round trip for an interview for an Analytical Chemist that she should find out her that she'd been sucessful and we could all celebrate together (sorry about all the empties Stephen!) It will hold lots of special memories for all of us and we are already planning another stay. Thank you for everything

Perfect Base for Exploring This Area
The entire family had a brilliant week in Shepherds Cottage - the actual cottage provided us with everything we could need and the location was perfect for exploring the area. The games room was particularly appreciated as were all the 'goodies' left to make us feel welcome - thank you, Sam. A minor issue occurred and this was dealt with swiftly and efficiently so thank you again, Stephen, for sorting this. We visited various beaches, castles, gardens as well as enjoying crabbing off the harbour wall, crazy golf at Seahouses, the Grace Darling Museum at Bamburgh and causeway crossing to Holy Island, as well as a selection of good eateries suitable for all ages. Our last morning was a breakfast brunch at the Salt Water Café in Beadnell - excellent!

Spacious comfortable very well equipped property with something for all ages !!
From the frontage it is hard to imagine how spacious this 'cottage ' is !! It's huge !! 7 adults 3 small children and a dog spent a lovely weekend in January celebrating a belated family Christmas and my 60 th birthday !! The property is very well equipped and the attention to detail is amazing - little things like a pair of binoculars to enjoy the sea view a selection of board games even the four legged friends are catered for !! Every evening we lit the fire (my husband has now decided we need a log burner at home ) The BBQ hut (man cave ) was a hit with the gents and everyones competitive side came out in the games room !! Sam and Stephen are brilliant hosts PS thanks for the cake wine milk and dog treats !! We are thinking of coming back later in the year when it's a little warmer to take more advantage of the outdoor facilities and the surrounding Northumberland coastline !!

A fantastic place to stay.
We stayed at Shepherds cottage to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday and couldn't have wished for anything better. From my initial enquiries to leaving on the last day, Samantha couldn't have been more helpful. As was her Mam who showed us around on the first night. The cottage has everything you need and more. It is extremely spacious with beautiful views. With the added benefit of the BBQ hut and games room, everybody was well catered for. I would highly recommend Shepherds cottage and we can't wait to return.

Amazing!
Lived well up to expectations and beyond! This short stay was just part one of my 80th birthday celebrations, as we shall be back again for a week in September when my son and his family will be joining us from Bermuda. Approaching the "cottage" is deceptive, as once you are inside it is amazingly spacious. There were only six of us on this occasion, but even when fully occupied there is plenty of room both for everyone to get together and for each to find a quiet spot when needed. Sam and her family have created a wonderful holiday retreat with everything you could possibly wish for, and a perfect base from which to enjoy this magnificent county. So much has been said by others who have stayed here it is difficult to find anything more to say. Everything about our visit was absolutely faultless and September can not come soon enough!

The property was excellent,very clean, with everything provided for a family holiday..
Lovely cottage, very clean and ideal for celebrating my 70th birthday with all the family. Everything we needed was provided with the decorations, cake, wine & dog "treats" provided by the owners on our arrival making us feel very welcome. The cottage was very spacious which allowed the grandchildren to play but still provided "quiet " areas for the others. The large enclosed garden & patio area provided an ideal place to sit out, enjoy the weather,which was kind to us, while watching the grandchildren run around & play. The games room & BBQ hut, which were both very well used,are both excellent additions. Sam, thank you for a lovely holiday in your cottage and hope we can return soon.

Great house with superb facilities and owners who go several extra miles.
We were 2 families sharing Shepherds Cottage for a sunny (but very windy!) week in Beadnell. The house is great, very well equipped, clean and comfortable. The owners took every care to make our stay extra special (including hand made treats for our guinea pig!) and there was nothing we lacked. The house has superb gardens a brilliantly equipped games room and a really enjoyable BBQ house that gave us many meals. Close to Beadnell (15 min walk in for the pubs and restaurant, 2 mins in the car) and the great beach. Can't recommend this place enough. We will be back!

Great weekend in Beadnell
We had a great weekend in this fab cottage. More than enough space for 8 of us and great facilities. Everything you could wish for was provided, including a delicious cake! Lovely local area to explore but if the weather hadn't been so mild we could have quite happily spent more time in the property, especially the games room and BBQ hut! I would recommend this property for anyone considering it (and already have!).
