This was our 2nd visit to Wagtail Cottage. It's in a great location for getting around and the cottage has everything you need. The bottle of Prosecco was a nice touch. We will return.

Our stay at Wagtail Cottage was outstanding from the moment we arrived, everything was beautifully clean, warm and inviting. The attention to detail was first class. A very cosy, comfortable cottage to return to after a day exploring the great coastline of Northumberland. Perfect location.

Wagtail cottage is simply perfect, one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in. It is very comfortable, spacious and extremely warm and cosy with furnishings to a high standard.
It was spotlessly clean and had excellent Wi-Fi availability. The owners had thought of everything as it had all you could wish for and more.
It is in a great location for exploring Northumberland and so peaceful.
We highly recommend Wagtail cottage and look forward to returning.

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The cottage is in a great location just outside the village of Bamburgh. Highly recommended.

A comfortable, well appointed and well equipped holiday home in a lovely setting. The welcome goodies were very welcome.
The view of Bamburgh Castle from just outside (or if you stand on one of the dinning benches) is stunning. The night sky is worth a look as well.

Overall the property was well maintained and comfortable. We have been to this area before so it is well located for visiting the surrounding area. Whilst there is seating available for outside seating probably lacks a little privacy. There is parking available but care needed when accessing.

We really enjoyed our stay at Wagtail Cottage, ideal location for exploring the area. The cottage was beautifully appointed and comfortable and we were delighted with the welcome pack of local products. We discovered new walking routes along the coast and in the National Park and found local pubs and cafes to eat when we weren’t cooking in the cottage.

Disappointed with Croquet Cottages for not honouring a 10% discount coupon from a previous stay at one of their cottages. They sited a policy change in 2023, but failed to communicate directly with their previous clients.
Delighted with Wagtail Cottage, the owners have a created a lovely well appointed property with everything you could wish for.
Ideal for walking into Bamburgh and connections to other towns and villages.

We have just spent a lovely week at Wagtail Cottage. It was beautifully furnished and decorated, warm, comfortable and spotlessly clean. It was very well equipped and the welcome hamper was very generous.

We had a wonderful restful week exploring Northumbria whikst staying at this spotlessly clean cottage. Everything is catered for. As we had wet weather it was a bonus to have a washing machine/tumble dryer.
Highly recommend.

We have enjoyed a brilliant stay in this wonderful cottage. We had a minor problem with the tower rail which was resolved immediately by the owner. Could not wish for better thank you.

We have used Coquet cottages on many occasions and never been disappointed and Wagtail cottage was no exception. A lovely location from which to visit the coast and inland . The cottage itself was very well equipped and decorated. All home comforts provided and of course the Croquet welcome pack with essentials and luxuries.
Information on local eateries, places of interest provided and info from the guest book also helpful.
A lovely week was enjoyed by us both.
