We've stayed in several holiday cottages over the years and Adderstone Folly is certainly one of the best, if not the best. It is spacious, clean and ideally situated for a Northumberland holiday. The welcome pack from the owners was really appreciated and we would definitely like to return to this cottage for a future holiday in the area.
