Great clean and well kept property. We've stayed there before so knew what to expect - a welcome addition was the blinds that have since been added. Will definately look to book again.

Nothing really - it would have been nice if there was an oven glove but I'm scratching around to find something to write here!

Once we had located the property entry was easy

.It took us a good half hour to locate the property after arriving in Beadnell. The directions were unclear and the map completely misleading. The house number was faded so we passed by more than once before asking a neighbour.

The place was lovely, however the main electric radiator in the open plan downstairs area was broken. Stay were very slow to respond even though I reported within a couple of hours of arrival. In fact they did nothing to attempt to resolve, despite me messaging them repeatedly over our stay period. Additionally, the TV didn’t work, suspect remotes were maybe flat and no spare batteries in the house.
I have asked Stay to consider a partial refund as we were absolutely frozen, as it was first weekend in October and weather was wild and windy.

The style and decor of the inside of the property was excellent. Everything you would need for a stay with the family. Great view across the old quarry which is now a small lake/nature reserve.

Everything was great, the only thing would be more than one toilet roll to be provided.

The location, very quiet and on the banks of a small lake.
Really good location to walk into the centre of Beadnell and also to the Beach & Harbour. Parking is on the road, and it’s a great location to explore the Northumberland Coast.

Just being picky and a personal view that the double mattress was too soft and uncomfortable . The bedrooms were very warm and quilts too warm, but this is my view. In the Winter they would be really good! 4pm is quite late to be able to check in, normally in other places it’s 3pm.

A fantastic house and we had a wonderful time! We couldn't believe the lovely views and fantastic location of The Bach- it's a 5min walk to the beach and to the coffee shops and pubs in Beadnell village, and only a few mins to drive along to Seahouses and Bamburgh.

The house is bright and modern, with everything needed for a very comfortable stay. The garden and outdoor seating area back onto a tranquil area of water- see photo- perfect for a peaceful morning coffee.

You've created a really calm and beautifully appointed home. Thank you!

Good central location. Airy open plan, safe private garden.
Quiet residential backwater

But Last minute “ hidden extras “ (shortly before departure).
1. Pay a £250 deposit against damage. Refundable but £10 handling deduction. or
2. Log onto 3rd Party Insurance web site & buy ( their ) £25 damage waiver insurance ( which we did)
Far better to have incorporated this into the up- front purchase price if it was part of the contract.
This allied to ‘ Host & Stay Group Limited ‘ sets a bad tone.
3. No marked paring space

On arrival greeted by overflowing, smelly rubbish bin at front door.
Unclear where to park instructions said space had sign on but we could not find this.
Television said satellite but we could not find channels and awkward to change channels etc.
Provided 4 bath towels but only 1 hand towel which was inadequate for 4 guests.

Great location, clean and pleasant home. Recommend you take additional toilet roll, dishwasher tablets and tea towels if going for more than a couple of days as only one of each is provided. Put hot water on for an hour at least initially or it doesn’t warm up

Unable to locate parking space and staff no help despite many promises over 3 days. Be aware that the property is not where they tell you it is on the street. Second bedroom is functional but snug.

Lovely waterside location, great styling inside the property. Wonderful closeness to the beach and facilities in Beadnell village such as shop, pub and coffee shop.

Disliked having to wait for the immersion heater to warm up in order to have a bath and the property was an effort to heat.

Philip

Most of the facilities you need and it was clean and seemed a new refurb, but not v comfortable. It was very cold inside- the small electric radiators were set to 5 degrees when we got there and even after we turned everything up full it took about 4 hours before we warmed up.
The water heater was poor, there wasn’t enough to have a bath and you had to turn it on boost for half an hour before you could wash up. The cutlery seemed to be the cheapest thin aluminium sort from IKEA. The house was on an estate where it all appeared to be empty holiday lets with v few locals.
The parking instructions were wrong and when we called the agent they just repeated the wrong instructions we already had.
Probably warm enough in the summer.

Great location.
The communications from the vendor was exceptional and all instructions (getting into the property, logging onto the WiFi etc)were easy to follow.
There were lots of different areas for chilling out, the garden terrace in particular was a great spot to sit and have a recharge.

The parking space was a little difficult to find and I think the TV wasn't working properly (although I didn't use the latter much).

The house is exactly like in the photos. Clean, modern, and nicely furnished. The twin room is very small but that was expected. Very responsive customer service team. Nice view onto the water.

Lack of essential items. We were provided with one dishwasher tablet, one tiny shower gel and 2 toilet rolls (for 4 people!). I understand that a full stock of items for a whole week shouldn’t be expected, but a few more basics would have been great. When asked about this we were told we had got a ‘starter pack’. The kitchen was generally well equipped but needed an oven glove, and an extra tea towel would have been useful.

We stayed at The Bach 1-6 September 2023
The place was cosy & had everything we needed for our stay.
Great communication & info on the area & places to eat off you need it.
A couple of niggles but nothing to complain about, the beds were very comfortable.
Outdoor seating could do with a little TLC but cushions are provided, nice & peaceful by the lake.
Easy walk into Beadnell & the beautiful beach, check out The Landing for food & drinks , very chilled vibe.
I would definitely stay at The Bach again :)

Lack of kitchen facilities - no basic things for self catering like salt or pepper. Only 2 dishwasher tablets and we were staying for 2 weeks. 1 Loo roll. UHT min sachets of milk - would have been really nice to have some fresh milk etc a a mini welcome pack.

It was clean inside

Firstly not until I actually booked the property was I aware of the additional payment of £25 or £250 per person to act against any possibility’s of damage to the property, I’ve never had to pay that anywhere else I have booked.
There was no hot water during our stay here apart from the electric shower, and there was dog muck scattered around the garden.
Would I book again, NO!

Looking forward to coming back In the summer to make use of the garden. Our stay was in January so we were unable to sit out.

couldn’t fault the property. The one thing I would recommend is a door draught excluder as it was very windy our first night. No one’s fault and we did improvise by using a spare blanket. : )

Location was good and kitchen and bathroom good.

The twin bedroom was so small only one person could dress at a time and was obviously only a single room . It spoiled our stay and wouldn’t recommend it to four other visitors.It was very expensive for three days of discomfort.

The Bach is a great holiday stay close to Beadnell Beach. You can walk through the estate and be on the beach in less than 15 minutes. The house is clean and provides everything you will need for a lovely holiday by the sea. We were visiting family in Bamburgh whilst we were here and we found The Bach to be a perfect base. We have already recommended this property to others. The kitchen has everything, including a dishwasher and washing machine if you are staying for a longer stay. The bedrooms are really modern with very comfortable beds. The garden looks onto the water (an old quarry) and is tranquil and relaxing especially in the morning. A perfect little house for a relaxing break!

As a family group of 4 adults the second bedroom was really small, particularly for storing luggage so we stored all of our bags in the main bedroom as this was more spacious.

Clean and tidy and in a quiet location.
Everything you’d need in the kitchen. Location good for walks and the local pubs etc. Craster Arms bar meals are very good. There is a private parking place or you can park on the street near the property. For hot water you need to press a boost button in the airing cupboard at the top of the stairs, if you don’t there is no hot water, this is explained in the house info emailed to you before you arrive by the agents.
A tidy garden with table and chairs.

Very Disappointing . We had high hopes given the photos of the modern listing.
It says hot water is available. We had none for the first day and a half of our stay . We were only there for the weekend . When we arrived the cups and cutlery were filthy. Certainly not to the Airbnb Covid standards . I sent photos to the host on our arrival . The Bach has no normal kettle and as we had no hot water we had to keep heating the given, one cup only, dispenser kettle to wash them up which took time out of our already short break . The kettle is frankly dangerous. It delivers a set one cup volume of hot water from a steam output nozzle which burnt my hand . We could not bath our baby and had no hot water to wash our hands after using the toilet .
Our complaint finally led to the owner calling us to say that there was a boost button in the cupboard upstairs as everything was electric. There was no written information anywhere to explain that you needed to press boost to get hot water just to wash your hands . We tried the boost for 15 mins and it didn’t even air the water . The price charged for this property is ridiculous for the level of amenities provided. The second bedroom has two twin small beds not normal single beds. We had thought we could push the two beds together but the bedroom is too small for this as there is an electric heater at one side and a wardrobe at the other so if you put them together you would have to crawl up from the door . So the beds really are only suitable for children not adults
The outside cushions were dirty and stained and the tables were full of bird poo not wiped for weeks .
Child safety gate at the bottom of the stairs but not at the top ???
We complained during our stay but had no real positive response or empathy from the management company or owner
There are no blinds in the lounge so if the sun is out you can’t see the TV

The Bach is a 70’s style purpose built building but has been recently refurbished and decorated - we felt like we had stepped into an Ikea store! All very modern and clean.
There is allocated parking for one small - medium car and off street parking outside of the property if you have a bigger car or two cars.
Sadly, whilst in a quiet area of Beadnell village, the walls are thin so you can hear your neighbours at times. The Bach is suitable for a couple and one child or two friends due to the size of it.
The walk to the beach is around 15-20 minutes but would take longer with little ones.
The garden is really large, well maintained and has seats to relax on.
Great WiFi and phone signal.

We are a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children -a 12 and 15yr old) and spent a lovely few days staying at the Bach. It’s ideally placed within a 10 minute walk of a long sandy beach. The Bach is well equipped, functional and the beds comfy. It sleeps 4 but the property is small so it’s a bit snug. It’s a perfect place for a weeks summer holiday but you might struggle with the space if you stayed longer or in the winter.
