We booked Cloggy Nook for a week to accomodate 4 adults 2 big dogs and 2 little dogs. This is by far the nicest cottage i have stayed in. Beautifully decorated, well furnished and very spacious. The kitchen is very well equipped with every gadget you would need, there are also plenty of doggy supplies if you forget anything and a lovely big garden area for them to play in. The location is perfect for getting away from it all, being on a private road you are not disturbed by passing traffic. We would all definitely recommend this cottage, and will be booking straight away for next year. Many thanks. |

From the first instant to the last we had a wonderful week at Cloggy Nook. The cottage is truly exceptional from the 'comfy' beds, pillows and duvets to the cosy lounge with it's gas log burner, fire, wifi and super TV (excellent reception), to the super farmhouse kitchen with a truly complete inventory. We hope to return next year. |

Cloggy Nook was the perfect cottage for us. As soon as we walked in we knew we would be spending a happy fortnight there - our every need was catered for. Comfy bed, brilliant white sheets, fluffy white bath sheets, complimentary toiletries, stylish decor throughout & a fantastically well equipped kitchen. Lovely welcoming touches, also, tea, coffee, milk, water, wine. It was our first visit to Northumbria and we loved every minute of it - the beaches, the castles, the wild life, the walks & the pubs. Can't wait to come back. |

This is the fourth time we have visited Northumberland, each time in different cottages. Cloggy Nook is the best by far! Well situated, great for dogs, clean, better equipped than our home, comfortable, quiet and relaxing, great gardens for both adults and dogs, ample parking. So good we have already booked for next year. |

| Cottage Review:
Being reguular visitors to the Northumberland coast we became intrigued by the sign to Tughall Steads so when we spotted Cloggy Nook in the brochure we decided to have a holiday there . We were pleased we did, for the cottage lived up to and beyond our expectations for a 5 star break, so clean and well equipped and even had a distant sea view from one of its three gardens. Very convenient for both Low Newton and Beadnell beaches with Alnwick only a short drive away. |

We wanted to revisit Northumberland as it has plenty of dog friendly sandy beaches. We were also looking for 4 or 5 star accommodation with an enclosed garden and cloggy nook fitted the bill perfectly. We stayed Mon through to Friday and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The cottage was spacious with great big comfy sofas in the lounge. Kingsize bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. Lots of little extras to make your stay very enjoyable. Also very quiet and peaceful area in the country. Lastly dog friendly pubs nearby that serve very good food and you can meet other pet owners. Would have no hesitation in recommending it to others and would certainly return as it is the perfect holiday for dogs. |

| Cottage Review:
I booked the cottage for a long weekend over a bank holiday in April. As I wanted to take my dog along I was looking for a pet friendly part of the country and accomodation that would accept dogs expecting to have to compromise on the quality as a result. How wrong could I have been! - I was absolutely delighted with the cottage. Beautifully quiet but near to stunning beaches and scenery. The decor was fabulous - extremely comfortable with all mod cons. Everything was catered for - the large dining kitchen with doors opening onto one of three garden areas was a delight - made even better by it being one of the hottest weekends of the year. The stunning living room with beautiful furniture and a stove which I look forward to trying when I hopefully return if the weather isn't as good. The main bedroom with en suite was wonderful and the outside spaces with well fenced gardens made sitting enjoying the peace and quiet (only broken by the resident woodpecker) a real bonus. The owner was extremly helpful and gave us plenty of tips for pet friendly places to eat. Can't wait to return! |
