Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers consistently mention the property being 'spotlessly clean' and 'spanking new', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes to the overall comfort and appeal of the cottage.

The cottage's location is celebrated for its 'fantastic views', 'peaceful area', and proximity to local attractions. While one review mentioned difficulty due to road closures, the overall sentiment is highly positive.

Guests find the cottage 'very comfortable', with a 'comfortable bed' and 'peaceful' setting. One review suggested an improvement regarding the sofa, but this does not detract significantly from the overall comfort experienced by guests.

The property is praised for its 'well equipped' nature, modern facilities, and additional amenities like internet access and a car charger. The presence of a washing machine in an adjoining building and the detailed mention of kitchen equipment suggest comprehensive facilities and maintenance.

Several reviews mention a welcome pack and personal introductions from the hosts, reflecting their thoughtfulness. While these gestures are appreciated, guests should note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed with every stay.

    This property was spotlessly clean, very comfortably furnished, quiet, and had excellent views. It’s very rare to stay in holiday accommodation that ticks every box, but this is one of the exceptional few. We thoroughly recommend it, it’s first class.

  • Graeme

    The location was quiet, the views were fantastic but it was only a short drive to a really nice pub. The owners were friendly and welcoming and we had a great stay.

  • James

    We were impressed by the range of guide books to this lovely part of Northumberland which the owners are understandably deeply attached to.The bed was comfortable and the bathtoom was spacious with an excellent shower. As the weather was rather wet during our stay, we were glad of the smart televison which enabled us to watch the on demand channels. The only criticism we could reasonably make was that we found the sofa to be rather uncomfortable and it shoud be replaced with a better one or with two armchairs.
