Cowrie Guest House

Stayed here for 3 nights 25-27th March .Ideal as so near the Railway Station We called in to see if they would let us leave cases and Ruth said we could check in as room was ready. Ruth and Ian very friendly .we stayed in room 3 and was lovely very quiet no need for the ear plugs which are provided.I really like that unless you requested the room to be cleaned they didnt enter the room .Each room had a table outside which they placed the pre order form for breakfast plus teabags ,water, towels etc .They is a laundry bag in your room to put towels in .Massive plus was fresh milk placed in fridge on the landing first time we have ever had fresh milk provided .Breakfast was lovely especially the sausage .Each day you can order a special .I had the fresh fruit waffle can recommend this . We upgraded to room with a bath glad I did as with all the walking we did I needed it for my aching back .The shower was lovely though too.Ruth also makes her own room spray provided in bathroom .i loved the Bergamot and Lemongrass I bought one to take home, It was our first time in Berwick .We did the Riverside walk and the walls then crossed over the bridge to Spital beach, We caught the x18 bus outside the station and went to Bamburgh and Seahouses you can get a Northumberland Day rider ticket which means you can hop on and off different bus operators.

Last stop on the Northumberland coastal path before catching the train home. Perfectly placed a few minutes walk from the station. Our room was small but beautifully thought out. Very welcoming host, great breakfast, we’ll be back if we’re in the area again.

Cowrie Guest House, Berwick on Tweed. We stayed for 2 nights in Sept 2024. The room was very spacious, clean and lovely. Ian and Ruth were really lovely people and made us feel home from home. Breakfast was exceptional! It was all the added extras too that made it special. They put a lot of thought in everything. Would highly recommend xx

We stayed with Ruth and Ian for 4 nights, a lovely couple who certainly put their all into running a lovely guest house. The establishment is on the main street with limited parking, but we managed to park every night. If not there is a free public park down the road. Our room and ensuite were bright and clean. Bed was comfortable and we slept well, ear plugs are provided in a information pack. Plenty tea / coffee and nice biscuits. Fresh milk in a fridge on the landing which was very welcome. Breakfast was pre-order and delicious. A good choice of cooked along with cereals, fresh fruit, yoghurt , toast and accompaniments. Everything was of a good quality at a reasonable price, what more can you ask for.

This is a great place to stay for touring Northumbria. It is very clean and comfortable with good facilities. Ian and Ruth made us really welcome and the breakfast was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble and we will definitely return. There are plenty of places to eat/drink within walking distance. Highly recommended.

Ian and ruth and family were so welcoming and very very helpful. The rooms are so clean and modern. The bed is so comfortable and the rooms are nice and warm. Small touches they made were amazing and thoughtful. The breakfast was 11 out of 10. Freshly made and asked how you would like your breakfast cooked. 100% great service. The information pack you are given on arrival is full of all the information you need and more. Felt like part of the family
