  • "I had a lovely stay at The Old Factory House."

    It’s quite a sizeable property and would be perfectly comfortable for six people. Everything was beautifully clean and tastefully decorated with modern appointments. The kitchen feels brand new and had all you could need if you want to cook your own meals. There is ample space for a family to eat as well. The lounge is huge with a great TV and comfy seating. I loved that it still has shutters instead of modern curtains. It’s not overlooked but I closed them every night just for fun! The bedrooms are large and again, nicely decorated. The bed I used was lovely and comfortable. The only negative thing about it was that there is some noise in the mornings as you are on a shopping street and delivering happens first thing. The bathroom is enormous! Fantastic huge bath and a rainfall shower. The property is perfectly positioned to visit Berwick. It’s literally in the middle of the town. It is over a Turkish restaurant which is a must if you visit. The food is amazing and literally right downstairs! Overall the property is highly recommended. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to be back next year.
