"Very good accommodation in a convenient position for Northumberland visit."
-
"There is a lack of adequate utensils ie."
Sharp knife and only 3 teaspoons, chairs outside need updating. Overall the cottage is very comfortable and in a great location
Thank you for the feedback. There are lots of spare utensils available and in the dresser-I will ensure this is made clear in introduction information. I will also sharpen the knives. The outside chairs were being updated while you were there-apologises that was not made clear. Property Owner

"The perfect place to stay, set in beautiful countryside adjacent to the owner’s property, Ravenside is situated in Humshaugh, a historic Northumberland village close Hadrian’s Wall and Chesters Roman Fort."
The market towns of Hexham and Corbridge are only a short drive away. Tom, the owner, is very welcoming and responds quickly to any queries you might have. Highly recommended. Gerry

"We had a really lovely, relaxing 2 night stay at Ravenside and would highly recommend staying here."
The property is down a pretty little road and looks out across fields. It is very spacious, beautifully decorated and we loved cooking a meal there on our first night, having everything we needed. Tom was a very kind host giving us lots of ideas for things to do in the local area and we were able to buy some of his homemade delicious jam and honey for our breakfasts. We wanted to walk part of Hadrian’s wall so went the 11 miles to Sycamore Gap and finished at The Twice Brewed Inn before getting a taxi back as buses weren’t running until March. The walk was so satisfying and the scenery was stunning! For a shorter walk we loved heading down to the castle by the river in the village. We had a great meal at the Crown Inn, 5 minutes walk away on our second night and Corbridge was a gorgeous village to pop for a coffee and has a great cake shop. We only wished we could stay longer so will be returning to do some of the other lovely things that Tom suggested. Thanks to his charming daughter for her ideas too!

About the location
HUMSHAUGH
Hexham 6 miles.
Humshaugh is an historic Northumberland village, 6 miles from the region’s main market town of Hexham - a bustling town with a fine Saxon crypt, shops and restaurants. A short drive will take you to pretty Corbridge, which dates back to Roman times and has pubs, specialist shops, and a 12th century bridge spanning the River Tyne. A day exploring the many delights of Hadrian’s Wall shouldn’t be missed and a little further afield will take you to the Heritage Coastline, as well as the castles of Alnwick, Warkworth, Dunstunburgh and Bamburgh. For those who prefer staying closer to home, Humshaugh has a great pub serving quality food and real ales, an award-winning shop and weekly visits from a fish and chip van! Walks and cycle routes from the doorstep will take you through the Tyne Valley, and this is a perfect location for all that Northumberland has to offer.
