Neighborhood

Keysafe was a bit low, but if that was the only bad thing ...

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at your accommodation. It was immaculate and had a very well equipped kitchen. The area was very quiet and peaceful but a superb location for the beach and Beadnell village. I would highly recommend this property and very responsive host. We would definitely return and look forward to another visit.

Great location, very nice house. We thought the cleaning was not as good as it could have been, particularly mould on the en-suite tiling not being addressed. The sofas are very strange with big, hard lumps and very uncomfortable indeed. They need to go. Otherwise good.

wonderful location, with 4 adults, 2 children and 2 adults the house was a perfect size for all of us with a wonderful size garden, it was great to see some of the issues others had raised had been sorted with the garden and shower head fixed in the en suite, some of the cushions on the sofas were a tad lumpy but you can get comfy pretty easy.

Huset er lyst og romslig og har god beliggenhet i en fredelig blindgate, bare minutter å gå til den fantastiske stranda og Beadnell Bay. Fine soverom med gode senger og bad med god standard. Selv om stuen var fin og romslig var det dårlig med sittekomfort - begge sofaene bør byttes ut på grunn av ødelagte fjærer. Det var i tillegg en del stygge merker på gulvteppet. Det er bruk for en skarp kjøkkenkniv/brødkniv.

A lovely house set very close to the beach. It has a large enclosed peaceful garden. Bed linen and towels were of good quality & clean. Beware there is a non returnable £25 damage waver, or £250 upfront which gets returned 14 days after minus £10 admin fee. We were unaware of until days before we traveled. A couple of issues that would stop us booking again unless rectified The 2 couches provide ) seats but 4 of them are unusable due to large burst springs which push up and making it impossible to sit comfortably, The dining seats are also old, worn, saggy and uncomfortable. The pillows are wafer thin and provide no support and one of the double beds is super firm whilst one of the single beds has a cheap mattress on which you can feel the springs .

Comfortable modern house in at the end of a quiet clued sac, with a secure rear garden, ideal for children. A short walk to the beach and the shoreside cafe and Pizza Hut. Lots of beach toys for the children in the garage.

Not able to sit comfortably-there were two sofas, half of the cushions had springs broken meaning we had to put pillows on top to be able to sit-and it still was very uncomfortable! The cleaning fee of £125 was the largest we have ever paid-we walked in and the house smelt of wet dog, the oven was covered in grease and I had to clean it before using. I have raised these issues with Host & Stay asking for a refund of the cleaning fee-I received an email saying they were dealing with a “large number of complaints”, which was very worrying in itself about them as a company. The house itself was lovely, but I could not recommend because of the broken sofas and excessive cleaning fee which is obviously not being used to clean properly.

First impressions great!!!! Unfortunately Grass needed cutting hadnt been done in a while,garden furniture not fit for purpose dangerous,mattress protector(blood stain) Had been washed cleaners would of seen this making the bed up. Showers need mould mildew spray on tiles.Very spacious for 4'of us and a dog

We really enjoyed our stay at Driftwood. The property has an excellent location and had everything needed for 5 of us plus the dog. Our only slight criticism would be, we were unable to use the en-suite shower as the shower head is broken, the tiles and grout also need a good clean. I appreciate we had only booked for 3 days but we didn't enjoy the garden as much as we had hoped as the grass hadn't been cut. Finally, the garden furniture is in real need of some TLC. This aside, we still really enjoyed our break.

The Driftwood was a real home from home. It was a great size for our party of 7 plus a dog. The location was fabulous and a great base to explore from. Hosts were always responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this property and we hope to return again.
10/03/2024
We only had one key which was a problem. One of our party went back to the house, feeling unwell. She had to leave the door unlocked so we could get in later. Not ideal.

Our family have absolutely loved our little stay at driftwood. House was perfect for us with beach, rock pools and pubs within walking distance. Hosts were very nice with some good recommendations for food etc inside the house. Nice easy check in and out, just right for our winter get away. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a calm and relaxed get away within beautiful surroundings. Thanks

We love staying at Beadnell and have stayed at many properties in the area. We would definitely stay here again. It felt very homely and comfortable with lovely modern bathrooms.

This is a nice house on an estate which has many holiday homes. Off season it felt like a bit of a ghost town but was very quiet. Beach walkable and lovely. Good enclosed garden, abut muddy buy it was November. Three downsides. The single beds in the twin room are very uncomfortable. Springs can be felt along one’s body when lying down. Dirty towels were left on the floor behind the door of one of one of the double rooms. Lastly the boiler stopped working on day two. As you may well be aware this was sorted within 12 hours after a lot of calls to Home and Stay and to air band b. We were given totally incorrect instructions to pour oil into the boiler. Fortunately there was no oil and I assume whoever I spoke to, several times, thought we had a generator not a boiler. Had we started to mess around as suggested this would probably have ruined the boiler and could have been very dangerous. We were told the owner had been contacted and said to pour oil in but this cannot have been true.

We have just returned from Driftwood in Beadnell Northumberland . This home did not let us down it was perfect for our family of 6 adults and a baby plus 3 dogs. Plenty of space for all , the lounge was cosy with patio doors leading to a huge enclosed garden perfect for our fur babies and our Toddler to run around. Kitchen fully equipped for our needs. The house was nice and warm throughout. 4 Bedrooms suited all of us one en suite all nice and clean, perhaps mattress toppers would make the beds a bit comfier, nice white fluffy towels. The position was perfect walking distance from the Beach and village centre and shops and pubs. We all loved it and would not hesitate in booking again.

Location is brilliant - not far from the beach and lovely places to eat. It is a comfortable, clean and warm house. We would have liked a few more loo rolls and dishwasher tablets.

Great place for walking on beach and fabulous places to eat. Highly recommend

Location and the beautiful Home from home feeling ?
28/08/2023
Clean and comfortable home with lots of space. Good sized garden. Great location within walking distance for the beach and venue ‘The Landing’. We have had a lovely mini break and enjoyed fabulous weather too.
25/08/2023
A lovely 4 bed house with plenty of space for our party of 6 plus a dog, well equipped kitchen, nice garden space and comfortable beds. fabulous location just a short walk from huge, beautiful beach. Local pubs and restaurants were a little expensive, but very high standard. we enjoyed an excellent meal at The Joiners Arms in High Newton on Sea. Only criticism is that the main bathroom sink plug was stuck and it was full of dirty water on our arrival. Despite leaving a phone message and following up with 2 phonecalls, the management company's promises of getting it sorted never materialised and the plug was still stuck and the sink still full of dirty water when we left. Not ideal, but we didn't let it spoil an otherwise enjoyable holiday.

We had a lovely time at this house, perfect for kids too with a big garden and lots of toys already there. Our only comment would be it could do with a bigger coffee pot!
27/07/2023
Location and accommodation were great, wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
23/07/2023
Lovely house within a 5 minute walk of Beadnell’s beautiful beach. Really clean and spacious. Easy to find and on a lovely quiet estate. We will definitely be back!
21/07/2023
Extremely comfortable and well equipped. A credit to the owner. Walking distance to the beach and eating places. Would book again.
25/06/2023
Good location if you want to be in walking distance of the beach. Large enclosed garden. Garden furniture could have been cleaned and some of it was broken. Shower head in en-suite wasn’t working, we reported it but didn’t get a response. Main oven wasn’t working which made it very difficult to cook.
