  We stayed for 3 nights in Magpie Cottage and it was brilliant.

  Cozy, comfy space, nicely decorated and well equipt. The washer & dryer is just a couple of doors along too if needed. Parking onsite is convenient and it was a lovely touch to have a local parking pass available to use as parking is free in the area if you display the pass. Paul and Jane were lovely hosts, super helpful and always available. It was a brilliant base to explore Northumberland with our pooch, we particularly loved the beaches at Blyth, Whitley Bay & Bamber. Duridge beach was also lovely when you get to it but the parking is on the verges on a small road. It was a small hassle though for the epically long beach and beautiful views. Duridge country park is also worth a visit. Morpeth was really nice too, lots of coffee shops, beautiful Carlisle Park and of course the fabulous Cheese Shop! All round great relaxing trip! The only reason we gave 2 slightly lower comments around facilities and accuracy of listing was just because the shop/pub was listed as 2.8 miles away and we thought we could walk to it and it may be helpful to note that this would be by car rather than walking (unless we missed a trick!) we would have loved to have taken the dog on a walk to the pub to stop for lunch and then walk back again but we could not find any paths to do that. This in no way hindered our experience or took away from the lovely cottage and it’s beautiful surroundings.

  Ridge Cottage has been 100% the best stay in a holiday cottage ever.

  We were greeted with a welcome basket, card and flowers which was a very lovely touch. The cottage was a bit like a tardis - larger than imagined. It's in a tranquil and relaxing setting surrounded with beautiful views away from the hustle and bustle of town life. It also offers a perfect view for star gazing at the night sky. The front garden provides a great enclosure for my dog to roam freely without worrying he'd escape. The back garden also enclosed but as my dog is a medium to large dog I think he'd probably be able to jump the fence if he was given the opportunity. There are no shops within walking distance - which suited us just fine. Although there is a little farm shop to walk to selling lovely fresh milkshakes, milk and some meat products. There are some great walks from the cottage - one to Rothley Castle - next time I'd bring a local map for exploring the walks more. We travelled a little further a field to Simonside Ridge and Druridge Bay & Country Park - all were amazing!! The hosts are very friendly and helped to make our stay so comfortable and homely. An amazing and perfect short break had by all.... would definitely stay here again.

  Lovely cottage in rural surroundings with great views.

  Arrived to a spacious and very clean cottage with all amenities provided. Owners very helpful and friendly. a big thank you to Vivienne and Lindsey for making us most welcome in their lovely holiday cottage. The cottage is well equipped with plenty of space just wish the weather had been better so we could have enjoyed the wonderful patio area with all the pretty tubs of flowers. We also appreciated the wonderful little extras provided. It was such a treat to find the food hamper plus other items in the fridge. A really warm and welcoming idea along with a card and flowers. what a great couple. This it is lovely, quiet location which made relaxing a real plus feature. Plenty to see and do in the area and even with the British unpredictable weather it didn't stop us all having a very enjoyable holiday. Many thanks Rita,Graham,Julie and Lou (August 2019)

  We have just returned from a relaxing week at Ridge Cottage.

  What a week it was!! We truly couldn’t fault it… Firstly, the location is sublime. Very isolated, but in a very good way! Extremely tranquil and beautiful. Fabulous dark skies at night, gives fantastic starry skies above!! The cottage itself is absolutely gorgeous! Spotlessly clean and very welcoming. Vivienne and Lindsey, had left a lovely welcome basket of goodies (with our dogs favourite treat included!). Everything you need for a great week was there in this cottage. Wonderful environment for dogs, too, with lovely walks just outside the door! Our dog, Lady, loved it!! Vivienne was a lovely lady, who took the time to have a few chats. We would wholeheartedly recommend this cottage and we will be returning to see the rest of the beautiful Northumberland countryside!!! Thank you Vivienne and Lindsey!!

  A wonderful cottage only matched by the friendliness of the adjoining owners.

  One of the best holiday cottages my wife and I have ever rented. We have a handicapped grown up son so the wet room and wide doors within the cottage were a great boon to us. The cottage is located some way off the main road and shops are some way off but anyone who loves the countryside and the peacefulness will be more than satisfied. The cottages is well appointed with everything we needed for our holiday. It was extremely clean and well decorated My wife and I thought the welcome basket of goodies along with the fresh flowers were a lovely touch.Full marks to the owners. It was our first visit to Northumberland and its beautiful scenery along with this gem of a holiday base makes a return visit inevitable.
