Excellent base to explore Northumberland
The cottage was very clean, comfortable, value for money and had everything needed for a lovely holiday. The garden was reassuringly secure for a dog that was desperate but unsuccessful in her attempts to escape to chase the many rabbits.Thank you

Lovely place
A lovely spot for a few days away to relax and unwind. The property was clean and well-maintained and was a lovely base to explore beautiful Northumberland. The only downside was the noise from the adjacent busy road but it it did quieten down late evening. Would stay again
