Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the cottage clean and well-equipped. However, one review mentioned that the property was not clean and full of the owner's belongings, which suggests a possible inconsistency in cleanliness standards.
The location is consistently praised for its proximity to the beach, quietness, and accessibility to local attractions and amenities, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing break.
Guests describe the cottage as spacious, warm, and cosy, contributing to a comfortable stay. One review mentioned a smaller bed size, and another noted the heating took time to warm up, indicating minor comfort concerns.
The cottage is well-equipped with DVDs, a secure garden, and other extras. One review mentioned a non-functional TV in the bedroom and a desire for a frying pan, but overall, facilities are highly regarded.
While the reviews reflect a positive experience, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.
About this property
Resting close to the seafront in Beadnell in Northumberland, McTash Cottage is a delightful single-storey holiday home which offers guests a well-presented holiday home, ideal for a family holiday. The open-plan living space is warm and inviting with ample seating, polished wood flooring and an attractive open fire, an area where you can imagine guests gathering together and getting into the holiday vibe. Step into the stylish kitchen which is fully fitted with all that is needed for producing hearty food for the whole family and when it’s time to serve up, there is an elegant dining area ready for guests to pull up a chair and look forward to long, relaxing meals together. If you want to keep the chef company then there are stools at the breakfast bar or if you want a less formal dining area. The adjoining patio doors help to bring the outside in, so on warm days you can throw open the doors and breathe in the fresh Northumberland air or you can eat and drink outdoors in the attractive gardens. There is plenty of space for children and pets to run around while adults can chill out and there is even a barbecue if you want to indulge in some alfresco dining. A great alternative space if you want to get away from it all is the conservatory which is bright and airy and just perfect for curling up with a good book and enjoying some ‘me’ time. Come bedtime and there are two charming bedrooms to choose from, a double for the grown-ups and twin bedroom for the kids. Both bedrooms offer a restful sanctuary to lay your weary heads after an exhausting day of exploring, so that in the morning you’ll be refreshed and raring to go. Beadnell Bay is on the doorstep and the charming village is within a short walk. Jump in the car to visit coastal towns and villages including Seahouses, Bamburgh, Warkworth and Alnmouth. Jump in the car for a scenic drive to attractions such as Bamburgh Castle, Hadrian’s Wall, Northumberland Country Zoo, Dunstanburgh Castle, Alnwick Castle and Gardens and you can even take a boat trip to Farne Islands where you might get sightings of unusual birds and even seals. If you’re looking for a holiday home that offers the full range of home comforts in a stunning coastal setting, then you’ve come to the right place with a stay at McTash Cottage.
This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.

This is clearly a loved family home and thankfully a far cry from a lot of the sterile and soulless holiday lets that are bought up and rented out around this part of Northumberland. It has a lovely âfeelâ to it which makes you relax and unwind as soon as you get inside and unpacked. I donât think Iâve slept so well in ages! Thereâs a large enclosed garden which is ideal for dogs and a very short walk to the fabulous beaches in one direction and the village amenities in the other. The Courtyard Cafe is worth a visit - Great breakfasts! Iâd recommend this lovely cottage without hesitation to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing break in one of the most picturesque parts of the Northumberland coast.

Very close to the beach is a real bonus. The cottage is simple and no frills, but suited us for our time there. The heating is not great as uses storage heaters, but note after first cold night it soon warms up.

..great for our 2 dogs and fantastic walks from the front door. Helpful neighbours too. The sea swimming didn't pan out because of the harsh NE wind so only got in once. Lovely place to stay and local eating places are excellent. Definitely back soon for a hat trick !
