Harness Lodge Reviews

Catharine
Very pleasant property and well appointed. Nice quiet situation. Plenty of room to park and close to Seahouses. Only downside was poor instructions for finding the property and instructions for oven etc would have been useful.
Debbie
A truly relaxing experience, the feeling of being in the countrysidebirds, rabbits, hares if you're up early enough but with the farmhouse next door not a feeling of isolation. Only a couple of miles from Seahouses with all the amenities, boat trips and fabulous views. Bathroom could do with an upgrade but that is our personal view. We had a lovely stay.
We had a very enjoyable and comfortable cosy stay at Harness Lodge. Fluffy towels, quality bedding and furnishings and well equipped. The gardens and surroundings were a joy and we left with lawn envy! From a safety point of view we would have appreciated an anti slip mat for the shower and grab rail. Changeable weather did not spoil visiting the local areas.
Quiet countryside location, lovely gardens and a short drive to seahouses beach and village. Ideal location to explore the local area and attractions. Very relaxing and peaceful break. Firewoodstore was great, the axes needed sharpening!
We really enjoyed our stay at Harness lodge, the setting was lovely, very peaceful and great to have use of the gardens and grounds around the cottage which our toddler loved running around in. The location was great with lots close by and easily accessible. The beds and living spaces were comfortable and the cottage was well equipped the kitchen had everything we needed, decent fridge space, washing machine although the knives were quite blunt!. The photos undersold the space as it seemed more spacious and modern than it appeared. There were a few cobwebs around so cleanliness was a little less than expected but overall we would recommend. Thank you
Perfect holiday lodge set on a lovely quiet country lane a mile from the beach of seahouses the property is well equipped with everything you need for a lovely stay. The property is a real gem. The woodburner just adds to a perfect winter stay. I will certainly recommend Harness Lodge to family and friends
Great property had everything you would need, good location, lovely owner Would ... Great property had everything you would need, good location, lovely owner Would definitely return and recommend to others
What a lovely place to stay, so quiet and peaceful. The Lodge was a joy, really comfortable, with everything I needed. The owner was friendly and helpful. I'd definitely book again.
Harness Lodge is probably one of the nicest and most comfortable cottages weve stayed in, and weve been coming to this area for around 30 years! . Its well maintained, well equipped and nicely decorated. The owners are close by and will pop in to say hello when your first arrive but are not intrusive and are lovely people Its in a really nice setting and is well situated to get easily to any of your favourite locations in the part of the county. Weve stayed there twice in the last year and have absolutely no doubt that we will stay there again. Very highly recommended
Stephanie
A very lovely stable conversion in a quiet area but so close to Seahouses and Bamburgh. The A1 is a short distance away where places such as Alnwick, Holy Island and Berwick are great to visit. The owner called twice to make sure everything was ok, I would highly recommend this converted stable if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern day life, its so relaxing
The shower broke on our first day. Reported to yourselves and handyman arrived within the hour. He decided that a replacement part was needed and that he would deal with the owner to have the shower repaired and that I would be contacted by the agent, I.e. Sykes. There has been no contact at all and no repair to the shower. There was little evidence of a cleaning or maintenance regime. Dust and cobwebs were everywhere. For example a duster had been used at the front of the tv stand but at the rear of the tv stand an arc of dust was the main feature. Tops of cabinets, the shower head and ceilings were home to spiders' webs. The lounge furniture referred to as plush in your property description was in a state of disrepair with collapsed springs, exhausted cushions and generally worn out. The welcome pack did not contain any logs for the log burner nor were there any logs available in the outbuilding open to us. It will be interesting to see how you deal with this reviewcomplaint as customer service and following up is absent and resolving problems seems to be an anathema.
Truly one of the best holiday cottages we have had. Owner introduced himself in passing and left us alone throughout stay. Very welcoming and placed was so comfortable. We will stay here again. A very big thank you.
After a very enjoyable week we have nothing but praise for the cottage and surrounding area.
On the positive side harness lodge was very clean and tidy with comfy beds and sofas. On the negative side, the toilet flush got stuck occasionally and the main shower head didn't work. Also the volume on the TV didn't work properly could not turn the volume down. It was a very nice touch to have the use of a tennis court during our stay.
Edwina
Lovely.place, very comfortable and not far from beautiful beaches. Nice gardens and a tennis court too. The owner presented us with a bottle of wine. Only downside was lack of Internet as WiFi had been turned off and owner couldn't be contacted. Definitely recommend. Tranquil surroundings and not for from Seahouses.
Apart from a little hiccup with the central heating not working and arriving to an exceptionally cold house, we were pretty soon equipped with oil radiators which absolutely did the trick. Everyone was exceptionally helpful cannot fault the service given. The cottage is set in a beautiful location very quiet and 2 mins from Seahouses, 3 minutes from Bamburgh, lovely welcome pack from the owners cottage very cosy, with everything you could possibly need to live very comfortable. Home from home. Would recommend this cottage as said at the beginning only hiccup no central heating so was a bit dissapointed to arrive late in the day to a freezing cold house but Mike the maintenance man and the two ladies who came the day after to see if we were coping was so helpful and a big thank you to them for going that extra mile to make it a good holiday. I have to say we was offered other accommodation but the cottage was so lovely and the heaters Mike brought worked a treat so no we didn't take up the offer of other accommodation as the place was just so lovely
We had the most enjoyable holiday we have had for years,didn't want to come home,lodge was so comfortable ,. Owners were most welcoming and very helpful. Plenty of places to visit around the area,lovely surroundings. Thank you.Colin and Mavis Stafford
Thank you for making arrangements for changing the bed sheet and pillows in the top bunk bed. We enjoyed our stay and the welcome pack and wine was great. The pictures do not do the cottage justice in terms of surroundings. It was much more than what we expected. Feedback based on our stay 1 The toilet bin lid was broken when we arrived and the toothbrush holder was not working properly. 2 The were mice running in the attic all night which made it difficult to sleep, I totally understand its a converted barn and mice will always make their way into an old building, but its not great when you are a light sleeper 3 The lack of an actual clothes line or rotary line was frustrating when we wanted to reuse our bath towels and costumes. The drier was unable to take more than one towel at a time to dry and it wasnt economical to use. 4 The doors in the sitting room were too stiff to open onto the small seating area 5 The toilet button stuck several times but bounced back again after a while 6 We were thrilled to have been able to use the tennis court 7 The directions to the cottage were difficult to follow after we took the road off Broad Street. The directions should have read take the first right as the directions which we followed led us to Elford Farm. We did not follow the postcode as you advised. And coming from Seahouses we always ended up arriving back at the cottage and owners house on the right not left.
Great, well equipped accommodation, located about 7 minutes from both Bamburgh and Seahouses. Lovely hosts, picturesque environment and everything you need for a great holiday.
Christine
Perfect property in a perfect location. We didn't want to leave.
The cottage exceeded our expectations we enjoyed every minute. The area was extremely scenic and we will definitely return. The Locals were very friendly and there were lots of good places to eat in both Seahouses and Bamburgh.
Michael
We had a lovely relaxing stay at Harness Lodge. The property was spacious, clean and very well equipped. The only downside was the noisy extractor in the bathroom.
Joseph
Full length mirror. Scissors. Matches. Salt and pepper would help.
