Here are some of the comments kindly left in our visitors' book in Magdalene House:
"This has been a wonderful week in a wonderful location. The house is immaculate and beautifully presented. Huge thanks to Julie for all the extra thoughtful little touches. Warkworth itself is beautiful. The castle is well worth a visit and the free audio tour is excellent. The beach is wonderful and really tired the dog out. Barter Books is a must-visit, with a roaring fire and cosy armchairs as well as the most extensive collection of books (and dogs are welcome to browse aswell) and helpful staff. Bamburgh is well worth a visit, as is Craster and the view from the crags as you walk to Dunstanburgh Castle is breathtaking. All in all a really fantastic holiday, thank you." The Lepatourels & Marmite the lab. April 2010
"Magalene House - "Wow" what a joy it was to arrive at such a delightful venue. The decor and cleanliness is the best we have seen in self catering accommodation. The welcome pack and all the 'extra' little touches were much appreciated. We had a lovely four days and I'm sure we'll return. Many thanks." Janet, Brenda, Donna and Pru.March 2010
"We have had a wonderful relaxing time here at Magdalene House. The house has real Wow factor, it's so nice my son wants to move in! Even the weather has been great. Thank you for all the thoughtful extra touches." Sarah, Paul and family. February 2010
"We have had a lovely time at Magdalene House. It's beautifully furnished - the Christmas tree and decorations a lovely touch. The snow fell heavily towards the end of our holiday and Julie was very helpful, offering us the opportunity to stay longer if we needed to. Thanks again and Happy New Year 2010." The Smith family. January 2010
" We have one huge complaint....and that is that we have to go home! But we couldn't have had a more relaxing and chilled time here at Magdalene House. All your needs are fully catered for, whether it be Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter. It really felt like home. Immaculate and extremely tastefully decorated and furnished with delightful Christmas 'touches'. We would definitely recommend this cottage to all our friends and neighbours." The Boardman Gang. November 2009
"Had a lovely relaxing time, house 10/10 - cannot fault anything. We will be back." The Fielders and the Moores November 2009
"We loved Warkworth and have a very comfortable stay in this super cottage. Great walks along the river and to the beach. Very pleased to have found these first class cottages." The Campbells, October 2009
"Thanks Julie for yet another brilliant weekend. The house is excellent and we did consider taking up squatters rights as we did not want to go home (as usual)!" Tracey and Andrew. September 2009
"Had a fabulous family holiday, house is perfect, we really enjoyed everything." The Websters, July 2009
"Imagine if you will, the perfect retreat to get away from it all, imagine no longer, you have arrived! The previous comments say it all and are also really helpful in guiding us for places to eat. Yes, the portions in Topsy Turvey's are huge, but this seems to be the theme wherever you eat! Our days have consisted of sitting in the garden in the morning and going to a new beach every day, tiring the dogs out and lots of reading. 2nd visit here and I guarantee there will be a 3rd. Have a great holiday." Julie and Deryn, May 2009
"We all had a great week, it was great having our cousins opposite! (at Waterside). We visited loads of places and castles, including Holy Island which was an amazing place. The house is great, comfortable, clean and homely, it really does deserve those 5 stars!" Fiona, Chris, doug and Eve, April 2009
"A fantastic house, spotless and so homely. Thank you Julie for letting us stay in such a wonderful place." Darren, Heather, Frank and Lucy, March 2009
"Wow! At last a holiday home that really is 5 Star, is as good as it looks on the website (which is fantastic and tells you everything) and best of all, accepts dogs! So many holiday cottages that take dogs are not very clean and are poorly equipped with 2nd hand furniture. This really does feel like a hotel, with the luxury toiletries and fluffy towels and all the little extras that you don't normally find - thank you. We have had a wonderful week!" The Greens, Feb 2009
"Our second visit - again fantastic. Love the attention to detail and special touches. Could quite happily stay in the house and forget about the world, but there are so many wonderful places to visit. Overall, fantastic holiday! Be back again at Christmas and hopefully before then too!". The Carters, Jan 2009
"Thanks for a wonderful weekend. We have all really enjoyed ourselves. Fabulous house, gorgeous decor! We want to know where every piece of furniture has been bought from! Everything we could possibly need or want in this great 'home from home'. Thanks for being so helpful with booking. We will have to come back again soon!". Gail, Kris and family.
"What a fantastic week! We've loved every bit of our holiday - and we've been so lucky with the weather. Flying our kites on Warkworth beach was fab and gave us our second childhood (our kids are grown-up). Magdalene House has been a wonderful home for us and Julie has thought of everything. Her eye for detail and flair for design is a credit to her. We've been so thrilled, we've already booked 2 more holidays here and can't wait for our next visit." Vanessa and Andy (and Rosie the labradoodle), Derbyshire.
"Great house, excellent location. We've has a brill 4 days and look forward to coming back! Thanks for letting us stay." Mads, Stephen and Chris, Penshaw.
"WOW! Five-star and then some!! What a wonderful house, less a holiday cottage, more like walking into your home for the whole week. You have thought of absolutely everything and the welcome goodies were lovely (especially the scrummy cake!!) Thank you! Our first visit to Warkworth and we love it. Warkworth House Hotel for Sunday lunch - a bit lacking in atmosphere because it was quiet, but the excellent food made up for that. The Jackdaw was very interesting and peculiar at the same time, but the food was very good. The Coach Inn at Lesbury well worth a visit and The Sanctuary Alnwick Castle is brilliant. Everyone in Northumberland is so friendly and welcoming and we shall definitely be back to Coquet Cottages! Thank you for a fantastic week." Andrew and Sue and 'The Jack Russells', Lincolnshire.
"We've had an excellent week and are looking forward to our next holiday here. Thank you." Tommy and Thelma, Durham.
"Thank you for a wonderful stay - we've had a great week in Warkworth at your beautiful house. We hope to be back soon to stay again." Anthony and Sara, London.
" Excellent house, the extras and welcome you get make a big difference. Our family stayed for weekend for a great family reunion. The area is beautiful and peaceful. We hope to return soon." The Gelder family, Sunderland.
"Thank you for our stay, the accommodation was very good, we were made to feel very welcome. We loved Warkworth and would visit again. Thank you for all your help through our traumatic experience!" The Stutenbrook family, Milton Keynes.
"We have had a lovely stay - and accommodation is just first class! This is our 4th time in Warkworth and we enjoy it every time in this lovely area of England! We would recommend - The Jackdaw in the village - small and unusual but food lovely, Cook and Barker - excellent food, different menu, good wine list, nice atmosphere (Newton on the Moor), Coach Inn, Lesbury, not grand surroundings but Sunday lunch very good value, well cooked food and huge portions! The Farne Islands - if into bird life and or photography, to go this season (June) with lots of activity - just lovely!" Kevin and Anne, Glasgow.
"Bringing my mum on holiday with us this year. The accommodation was key and had to 'be right'! Magdalene House completely exceeded her expectations! (And I was No.1 daughter for a week!). So thank you, the house is just superb and we loved Warkworth (normally stay at Embleton). Mum is already talking of coming back here! Also thank you for the recommendation of The Coach Inn at Lesbury - food excellent and John the Landlord was very welcoming. The Warkworth House Hotel was also very welcoming and patient (we had 2 children and and 86 yr old) and food lovely. Good holiday - we love it here!" McCallum family, Solihull.
"We have had a really special holiday in this lovely house. You have thought of everything. Our first time to Northumberland and we'll definitely be back. We had a good meal at the bistro in Warkworth House Hotel. Good food at The Coach Inn in Lesbury. We had a great day at Holy Island and Alnwick Gardens. Great beaches at Alnmouth and Beadnell. Thank you for helping towards a great holiday." The Nagle family, Beaconsfield.
"Magdalene House has been a good base for our first visit to Northumbria. The village amenities are a pleasant stroll away and our meal at Warkworth House Hotel most enjoyable. We look forward to visiting again and hope we are again blessed with warm sunny weather!" Rita and John, Suffolk.
"We have had a lovely calm quiet week's holiday. Had lots of family and friends to stay and as we do, think Magdalene House is beautiful. Even our dog jack "Hendrix" has had a fab time running on the beaches and shattered the rest of the day." The Tatum family, Burnopfield.
"Late choice, but had an extremely enjoyable few days. Lovely part of the country, made even more enjoyable by the friendly people. Magdalene House is very comfortable and welcoming and we would certainly encourage friends to visit." The Hudson family, Sheffield.
"Thank you for the lovely accommodation. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It has felt like home, thank you for all the added extras. Visited Bamburgh Castle, lovely day out, lovely views. Also went to Alnwick Castle and Alnwick Gardens, brilliant days out, definitely a must-see for both, great for the kids aswell - take a change of clothing and a towel for the kids if they're not afraid of getting wet in the garden water features. Eating out at Masons Arms most nights as a very welcoming pub with lovely home made food. Topsy Turvey gorgeous, had dinner there - a must do for everyone. Had lovely walks to the beach and a very long walk from Craster to Dunstanburgh Castle. Once again thank you for a great stay, will definitely try to get back next year as much more to see and do." The Roberts family, Teesside.
"We had a lovely week - the house provided for our every need (and more). Despite the weather we enjoyed many days out, the highlight being the Alnwick Gardens and Bamburgh Castle. The food at Topsy Turveys was excellent. Everywhere we went the people have been very friendly." The Gibson family, Leicester.
"WOW! We love the glamour - thank you - you deserve the 5*. We will be recommending you and using one of your cottages whenever we come to Northumberland." Linda and Hugh, Surrey.
"We have so enjoyed staying here and our thanks for everything left to add to a great holiday. Mr Boswell (standard poodle) and Mr Portly (ancient Siamese cat) have also enjoyed themselves! Thanks for the welcome chew bone! We have packed in a lot during our stay, had precious weather - endless skies and hot sun for the most part. Eating out has been varied, The Jackdaw has been top of the list for us, Topsy Turvey possibly second, Amble's fish and chip shops also good. Warkworth is the most lovely village in every way and such a good place to be based for going to places. Magdalene House is great to return to with all its comforts. It was so nice to meet you Julie, your husband and children and of course your Great Dane - a fantastic creature! We hope to be back PS. on our last night we went to The Coach Inn at Lesbury, it was terrific, excellent food, lovely people and a very fair price." Christopher and Diana, Sherborne.
"Magdalene House is a fantastic house to stay in, so warm and comfortable. We have loved our weeks holiday - can't believe how wonderful the weather has been - great weather for beach walking with our dog, Jessie We have loved our time in Warkworth village, Alnwick and Holy Island. Thank you for the welcome gifts, we feel thoroughly spoilt! We are now considering another visit in February, can't wait for July. Many thanks Julie, as always." The White and Bray families, Nottingham.
" We had a wonderful time! We were especially pleased with the Christmas tree! What a great treat and a real home-from-home touch. We all felt thoroughly spoilt and pampered and will certainly be back one day. Warkworth beach is marvellous - a good walk through the dunes. Even the weather was good - not even windy (shame, we brought a kite!). We would really recommend a visit to Alnwick and Craster and visit as many beaches as you can." The Fergusons, Lincoln.
"What a beautiful house to stay in. As promised, it is like staying in a friend's home and has everything you could need. We have explored as many of the beaches as our time would allow and our labradoodle has literally run his poor legs off - so much so we had to have a takeaway on our last night to give him a break!" Wayne and Kelli. Peterborough.
"Very enjoyable stay - excellent accommodation and location made better by good weather. Farne Islands are an absolute must for anyone with half and interest in birds or photography. (You can get an extra hour on the island by going on the earlier trip and asking to come back on the later one.) " The Jordans, Glasgow.
"We have had a fabulous family holiday in your amazing house. It has been great staying in such a great house, 'home from home' with every comfort thought of. Warkworth is a delightful location and we have enjoyed a week of long beach walks. Weather amazing for Feb. Bright sunny days. I will thoroughly recommend this to our friends - if you are reading this I hope you have as much fun here as we did! Thank you." The Deanes, Winchester.
"Dear Julie, thank you for our stay in your lovely house (we love Warkworth). Haven't slept so well for a long time, bed so comfortable. Best wishes." Olive, Roy and Ben, Sheffield.
" A lovely house in a lovely location - in fact we don't want to go home! We are leaving relaxed and refreshed with a very tired dog from lots of long walks on the beach!" Catriona and Mark, Wetherby.
"One of the best houses we have stayed in - very well equipped (especially the toys, which the three boys loved). Perfect location for exploring locally and beyond! We loved the beach at Bamburgh and the boys enjoyed the ice cream parlour at Morwick! Had a super meal at the Warkworth House Hotel. We loved walking down to the river in the evenings to watch the herons. Would love to come back again soon to do all the things we missed this time." The Taylor family, Tonbridge.
"The weather half-term has been generally glorious and we have had some beautiful coastal walks along the beaches at Bamburgh, Craster and Warkworth. We can recommed a visit to Cragside House - a stunning house and gardens. The house itself is very luxurious and we especially enjoyed the complimentary toiletries, the welcome pack and the wine. A great week!". The Siddle family, Leeds.
"Julie - thank you for your kindness in upgrading us after the floods. This place is fabulous - you've obviously got a real flair for design. I felt like taking up squatters rights!! We've been lucky with the beautiful weather - walks up to Dunstanburgh Castle and on Bamburgh Beach were the highlights. Thanks - We'll be back!" Lyn and Andy Buckley.
"Fantastic accommodation. Lots of personal touches, very friendly manager (Julie). Great location for days out - can't believe how many places we got to, including the Metro Centre! So close to the river - Danny's heaven (although didn't catch a salmon!) 1 week was not long enough, we are hoping to pursuade grandparents to join us up here next Summer. Thank goodness for good old 'Google', otherwise we would have missed out on this beautiful part of the world. Who needs to go abroad for a special honeymoon. This place is perfect!!" Jude, Danny and Jake Flint stayed at Magdalene House and Tall Trees
"Great house, excellent location. We've has a brill 4 days and look forward to coming back! Thanks for letting us stay." Mads, Stephen and Chris, Penshaw What will YOU say? |
