This was a lovely property which suited our family group well. The property was warm, beds were comfortable and it was well equipped. The bonus of having access to the pool, tennis court and games room was great especially for the kids. The Bosk restaurant is really nice but isnt open every night, Id advise booking if you want to go. We had a couplRead moree of small issues but Richard replied to me straight away with suggestions eg when the tv wouldnt work. Only thing to note is that there is an upstairs property with squeaky floorboards - didnt bother us at all and wasnt a problem but if there were noisy people up there it might be an issue. Overall a lovely comfortable property, great value for money in a beautiful area so would stay again Hide

We had an amazing break, very chilled , just what we needed, the cottage was well equipped , cosy and very comfortable, with the added benefit of a swimming pool and a games room, which bought out the competitiveness of our teenager daughter and my husband snooker wars, Zak the Labrador loved the walks . We will be back

This is a really cosy and comfortable cottage that our family of four has now been to twice. The on-site facilities are excellent and the cottage has everything we need for a week away from home. It's a perfect base for exploring Northumberland.

Lovely stay in this cottage. My children enjoyed the freedom of the pool, play area, trampoline and the tennis courts. Was lovely to be near horses and the lakes at the bottom of the site was lovely to walk round. The cottage was equipped with everything you should need. Very enjoyable stay. Thank you.

The cottage was in idyllic setting. It had everything we needed provided, the kitchen was better equipped than my own at home. Even had the added luxury of an on site swimming pool with jacuzzi and a gym. Was very quiet and exceptionally clean.
