Fantastic cottage. So cosy and welcoming. Very close to the heart of the village, but still quiet and relaxing. Everything was thought of, and we couldn't have asked for more. The fully enclosed garden was great for our dog, and there are lots of lovely walks from the door and dog-friendly pubs in the area. The garden entrance through the master beRead moredroom is unusual, though it can also be accessed from the side of the house. The games room was great on the rainy days. Loved it! Hide

A comfortable and spacious house, which was the perfect base for exploring beautiful Northumberland. It was just a short walk across the river into the main part of Rothbury which has good pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops - and the art gallery is well worth a visit. Cragside and the Simonside Hills are on the doorstep. Alnwick is just short driveRead more and the coast is within easy reach with lots of great beaches to choose from. Would definitely recommend.

A super holiday home in a great location. It really felt like a treat to stay here. Great facilities (pool table, dartboard, summer house) and plenty to do even when the weather isn't great. Rothbury is a lovely market town, and nicely placed to travel to either the coast or inland to Hadrian's Wall. Hope to return soon.
