About Catch the Breeze
The Sykes family has been letting holiday properties since the 1970s. It’s fair to say; it’s in our blood. Our experience owning, managing and even cleaning holiday properties led to the family founding and running another successful national holiday home letting agency that still bears our family name.
Today, Catch the Breeze is about pulling on all that experience to offer something incredibly special. We understand the importance of holidays in the UK. And that it’s something that requires a lot of hard work to get just right. We know this because we’re no different. Every year the Sykes family look forward to staying in holiday cottages and the unique experience that each stay brings. We have a genuine understanding of what makes a holiday special, of what creates that all-important sense of belonging and satisfaction that makes you feel: I could live like this.
What our guests say
Wonderful house in a wonderful location
Rock Lobster was the perfect house from which to explore the beautiful Northumberland coastline. As well as enjoying the perfect location overlooking the sea, it offered everything which we needed to make our stay comfortable, in both good weather and bad. The kitchen was well equipped and generously provisioned, the upstairs sitting room and its balcony and view were a particular joy and the bedrooms and bathrooms were quiet and comfortable. As a party of 8 (4 couples) we had plenty of space for both group and individual entertainment - and had a wonderful time. Clare, the letting agent, was extremely helpful and responsive to our occasional minor query.

Amazing retreat at Craster
This is our 4th visit to a Catch the Breeze property in Craster. Driftwood was just as amazing as the others and we had a wonderful week. Long walks along the coastal path and beaches. Lovely scenery the highlight perhaps was the Artic Tern nesting ground near Beadnell.
Amazing week thanks to Catch the Breeze again.

Stunning property
Rock Lobster is such a stunning property our group of friends would highly recommend booking. The cleanliness, attention to detail and support from Clare and Tara made the holiday so easy to enjoy!!

Absolutely stunning
Mill Farmhouse is a stunning “no expense spared” holiday home. It’s a really comfortable house, the bedrooms are large with super beds and modern, spotless en suites. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook a family meal although dining out in the area is excellent.
The location of Mill Farmhouse is idyllic, standing in a large rural plot it’s a lovely place to totally relax and enjoy the local wildlife and watch the birds. A five minute stroll across the adjoining fields takes you to a beautiful sandy beach or on to the coastal path leading to Beadnell bay in about 20 mins, and Low Newton and Craster if you want to stretch your legs.
We would totally recommend this amazing 5 star property - we have already booked our next visit
