• "An excellent base from which to explore Northumberland, the Durham Dales and maybe further afield."

  A comfortable cottage of character with helpful owners who live adjacent. Close to the fine towns of Hexham & Corbridge. Good value for money.

• "A very interesting cottage in a beautiful setting overlooking the Tyne Valley."

  Well equipped but would benefit from a small freezer and dishwasher. Weather was glorious but still needed log fire in the evening. The most comfortable bed ever in the beautiful bedroom. Our main issue was parking. The entrance gate is very narrow and I damaged my brand new car

  The cottage has great views and a super fire. The stars were amazing away from the city, I haven’t seen them like that since I was a child. I would recommend it really highly.

• "We had a fantastic week in West Wing cottage despite the weather not being the best we had hoped for, however we still managed to get out and about to explore the area."

  The cottage had everything we needed & the location was perfect being away from town, but only a short drive away. Owners next door were really friendly & helpful plus we very much appreciated the welcome pack. As a couple of reviews have mentioned, an upgraded TV with Netflix etc would be a good addition as we were only able to get 2 channels on the existing one and in the end used our IPad instead. However this is a very minor issue in what otherwise was a delightful stay,

  It was a shame that the weather was so unseasonal. For early July it felt more like mid-winter with howling gales and lashing rain. But we were cosy and snug inside.

• "We were disappointed that there was no freezer at the property as I had fresh dog food and food cooked for my daughter and myself."

  I think 2 single beds would be an improvement as not all couple want to sleep in the same bed. The couple who own the cottage were lovely. A welcome basket was left for us and 2 Easter eggs. The cottage is set in a lovely part of the world and we loved the walks in the forest with the dogs

  Hi Christine and Nicola, I'm glad you and your daughter enjoyed your welcome basket and Easter Eggs, and your walks down in the forest with your dogs. I am sorry about the freezer situation, but in the description of our cottage it does only say 'fridge' (with ice compartment). We have found having a double bed has been ok with previous guests, and have just recently replaced it with the new feature double bed - photographs and description in the property details describe this also.

• "We were delighted with this pretty and unique accommodation and in the standard of it all."

  It was warm, the bed with its beautiful bedding was SO comfy We slept like babies! We particularly liked the recently installed bath that has handles and a grab for the shower... Too many accommodation providers are installing trendy high sided baths that are not safe for so many visitors. Everything was gleaming clean. We liked the parking inside the gate and the pretty garden that was secure for our dog who enjoyed his daily walks nearby. The whole area has so much to offer with nearby coffee house and eateries... The owners are so welcoming and provided treats for both us and our dog so we have no hesitation in recommending!

• "This was a beautiful little gem and the perfect weekend escape."

  It was cosy and and warm, the owners were close by for anything we needed and the surrounding space is perfect for dog walks right from your front door. I had read that there are some WiFi issues which didn’t concern us too much, but it did mean that watching any TV was challenging as it just wouldn’t stream properly. There were also a few bits that we didn’t bring as we’d assumed they might be at the cottage like shower gel, and milk but we were able to go out and get those and to be fair they had left a couple of small bottles of Prosecco and some dog treats for buddy. We’ll definitely be back.
