Spotless bungalow, very comfortable, warm and cosy with everything we could possibly have needed. Lots of throws, cushions, extra pillows, lovely soft towels and even bathrobes were provided. The very generous welcome pack even included a lovely doggy treat bag, such a lovely and much appreciated touch. Excellent communication from start to finish. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation to recommend this lovely, welcoming bungalow. Thank you for a super stay.

We stayed here over the Christmas Holiday 2025.This is a lovely property on a quiet street. The hosts had tastefully decorated it for Christmas and had left us a very nice welcome basket.It is a very clean, warm property and a lot of thought has gone into equipping it for a comfortable stay.The rear garden is dog-secure and we were happy for Teddy to be let out into it.It is about a steady 30 minute walk to Amble harbour. There is a recreation area at the end of the street which is (subject to the usual 'clean up expectations') great for exercising your dog.We would be happy to return to this property.

Absolutely perfect in every way. Cannot praise this accomodation enough. We had two wonderful weeks here in Amble. Friendly and vibrant area. Lots to see and do. The bungalow was pristine. So warm and inviting with everything you need. Comfortable beds,super hot shower and a bath if you prefer. Garden was very private and secure.I just cannot fault this place and will be back as soon as we can. Thank you Barbara and Mick for the lovely welcoming basket and the up to date information on and before arrival.

As soon as we walked into Arkle House we were impressed. The bunaglow was immaculate, and exactly as described. The welcome basket was a lovely treat, and the garden was perfect for us. Amble is a beautiful area, and buses are regular.We had much longer journey (from Kent) than we realised, but is was more than worth it!

Arkle House is a beautiful bungalow. Spotlessly clean, with everything anyone would need. The garden is private and enclosed, situated in a very quiet area. The beds are very comfortable too. The host provided a generous welcome pack for our arrival. This is the second time we've stayed at this property, and we will definitely be returning. The location is ideal for setting off to all the areas of interest that Northumberland has to offer. Just a short walk to Amble and the lovely harbour, with restaurants and little shops.
