46 Willowburn

Had a wonderful few days with grandkids ,nice clean caravan apart from the decking and outside table that could of done with a clean and a plate was left under the outside table ,beds super comfy,would be happy to visit again

Fantastic, comfortable, well located and excellent value accommodation.

Has everything you could need and more from towels, linen, all kitchen items, dvd player, large tv etc. Extremely comfortable beds and lovely warm shower. Really friendly, helpful and thoughtful host Chris who left a lovely unexpected welcome gift of snacks and Prosecco. Would highly recommend!

Comfortable caravan equipped with essentials.

Beds were comfy and we slept well. Chris the owner responded very quickly to a question I had. The park is very spacious and we had some nice walks round it. I’d recommend a few more glasses and cleaning products to keep the kitchen/ bathroom clean while you’re there (especially if staying for a few days). I’d also suggest a deep clean to make the place sparkle.

We really enjoyed our stay.

The site was quiet and very handy for the A1 so you could go up for places like Bambrugh or down for Morpeth or across for Rothbury. The bed was comfy and we slept like a log. However the cooker needs either a complete overhaul or replacement. Would have given 5 stars except for this. It really needs sorting a family of four would really struggle coking on it. The grill was too small didn't heat up. The oven seal and burner are badly worn so does not get up too temperature.

Everything was fine apart from the awful smell.

Although it wasn’t present throughout our stay when it appeared it was sickening. I walked around the small river and saw several pipes discharging coloured water into the river. We will not be re-booking.

Great spot, off the A1, easy to navigate around Northumbria.

Lovely and quiet with nice short walks for the dog on site. Only one night there was a noisy group but doors shut you couldn't hear them and they were a really nice group :) Everything needed in the caravan and a nice touch of Prosecco, crisps and chocolate plus basics of tea, coffee & sugar. The Shoulder of Mutton in Longhorsley is a great place to eat... quiet, good food and price

Sykes cottages cancelled my booking 5 minutes prior to me setting off on my break.

Not good. I then booked another cabin elsewhere in the country. Sakes advised at it was short notice you needed permission from owner to go ahead. I had confirmation to go with key codes. We arrived to find nothing had been done or cleaned, no water, no towels and no bedding. We had to call the owner ourselves to arrange a cleaner late at night. The owner knew nothing about us using his property and was not informed by Sykes. This is disgusting and embarrassing and I will never use Sakes again. Staff were not helpful on both occasions. Thankfully the owner was great and we eventually got sorted. Disgruntled customer

Just returned from a week's break at 46 willowburn.

the lodge was nice and clean and well equipped and can't wait to go back next year.also thanks Chris for the welcome pack much appreciated.

We had a pleasant stay for a few days .

It is a very nice area with plenty of places nearby to visit and the park is small and quiet. The welcome gifts of prosecco , chocolate and crisps were much appreciated, a nice touch . Unfortunately I was quite unwell so we had to stay onsite longer than anticipated each day .We did have a few issues but we contacted the owner Chris and they were dealt with quickly and efficiently. eg a broken shower and chipped crockery and no kitchen bin was provided and also struggled to initially find the place ( the directions on Sykes site are less than useless ) but Chris kindly talked through directions for us so we got there ok in end . Just as a side note I think the property could benefit from maybe a teapot , some egg cups and more ovenware, not essential but would be useful . The utensils could be checked as well as there was a melted spatula . However the site itself had issues. The little shop/ tavern on the site did not open at all from the day we arrived and had a sign saying it would re open the day we left ( dues to unforseen circumstances ) . The electricity was off from 9am until 5pm one of the days due to electricity works nearby but we had no prior notice of this happening . Again the following morning for another 2 hours . Just small things but all add up when a person has paid good money for a holiday . I wouldn't want this to be perceived as a "bad" review just informative . It is certainly an accessible place to visit all the surrounding attractions of which there are many . Also as previous mentioned the caravan owner was very obliging the instant we had requests.

could do with a Ironboard to iron clothes on

The directions were absolutely rubbish.

It took us several hours, stopping to ask directions in Morpeth, Felton and several other places. At Felton we were advised to to to Brockbank Holiday park, which we had already passed, twice, after the airfield and crematorium. At the onsite Tavern we were told all the street names are in Alnwick. Luckily we remembered the phone number who guided us to our cabin only 200yds further in the camp. Otherwise we would have had a wasted trip all the way to Alnwick. Apart from that the cabin itself was excellent and ideal for our weekend break.

Nice location.

Comfy beds. Thank you for chocolate and Prosecco!

Very clean and tidy and comfortable a pleasure to stay in .

I would highly recommend anyone to stay thank you Chris

No it was spot on I'm going to book it again it won't be next year because I have two holidays booked for next year it probably will be it depends

Hello we had a great time at 46 Willowburn.

The caravan was very comfortable,and everything was lovely and clean.I hope that i have left it clean for the next people.The site is good for families with young children as there is a good play area.There is just one complaint that we have about the actual site,as there isnt a decent shop on the site where you can buy every essentials eg.groceries and newspapers .That is the only complaint.

The property had everything you could wish for.

Give it 10/10 , you could drive to lots places very quickly. Frank. Sept 8th- 15 th.

Bedding on arrival was still damp on all beds There is raw sewage right next to the lodge which is coming from a channel dug into the hillside.

It was so bad we never sat outside and could not open windows at night. The beds were the most uncomfortable beds I think I have slept on in a long time. The site itself is great but I don't think we would use this particular lodge again I'm afraid.

After a very satisfying stay there we’re a few minor thing I would like to point out.

1 the shower in the bathroom falls apart when moving the shower head. 2 the extract fan in the bathroom did not work, neither did the cooker hood ,although the light worked. 3 the fridge freezer give a vibration sound which is annoying in the night. 4 the bushes rub against the side of the lodge when it’s windy , again annoying in the night.

Absolutely loved our stay!

It was perfect for our family of four and friendly furry giant Albie

Lovely quiet site.

Ideal position for touring Northumberland. We loved the large lounge area and the decking ,.

we had a wonderful week everything was good except the bed was too lox and on leaving when we cleaned out the van and striped the bed there was 2 brown marks on the sheet which wasn't us had i have noticed sooner i would have changed them

The chalet was in a lovely location , equipped with all your needs inside and for relaxing outside.

Would strongly recommend this chalet for a relaxing, family holiday.

Really pleased with the accommodation and site.

Very clean and tidy. Site quiet possibly because of the time of year but suited us and our dog. Welcome pack was a lovely touch as well. Congratulations to the owner.

Excellently property and really comfy.

Ideal location for exploring Northumberland. The property had everything we needed, including Netflix for my teenage daughter, and was set back from the playground and small pub so was really quiet. The beds were really comfy too which was great. The added use of the Crazy Horse Saloon in the neighbouring park was an awesome bonus. We didn't eat there but the food looked great and had weekly entertainment. I would highly recommend this property to anyone interested in staying in Northumberland, especially those wishing to visit Alnwick or Morpeth and surrounding costal areas. Next time we visit this part of the country we will definitely look at the availability here.

We enjoyed our stay in Northumberland.

Willowburn was a pleasant caravan on a very quiet site. The caravan was spotlessly clean when we arrived and in good condition. Nice welcome gifts on arrival too. The property does require some updating. The double bed in particular was very uncomfortable and the mattress slopes to each side. The sofa was also a bit tired. No pods provided for the coffee machine so bring your own! Internet is poor and cut out several times. There is a great park on site. The site over the bridge has the Crazy Horse Saloon which was good. The main issue with this site is the smell. Particularly at night there is a very strong sewage smell right outside the caravan so we didn’t open windows or doors. The site is located well on the A1 and is a great base to explore Northumberland. Our favourite was Alnmouth but we also visited Bamburgh, Embleton, Low Newton, Craster, Amble, Alnwick, Druridge Bay and Warkworth. Overall it was great value for money.
