The cottage is a perfect base for exploring Northumberland.
The cottage is a perfect base for exploring Northumberland. Lots to see and do, and the owners are very friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. Very dog friendly too - and great for those with potentially reactive dogs too due to its location.
