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.

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!
