A lovely spacious warm cottage.very well equipped and lovely friendly people.my only very slight criticism would be that the garden although well enclosed would not be totally secure for a small dog.easily remedied by a couple of rolls of wire netting.superb location and plenty of opportunity to walk the dog.in easy reach of numerous towns and villages.a lovely wee break thankyou so much for your hospitality.

This is a fantastic base for north Northumberland and the borders. The views from the cottage were outstanding - both from the living room and the main bedroom, incredible. Horses in the fields surrounded the back of the cottage with the feeling of calm. It was lovely to have a warm, clean cottage to come back to, with everything there for a comfortable stay. Thank you, we will be back!
