This cottage was exceptionally clean and tidy.. Everything was catered for by the owners. The cleaning staff are very good and ensure the highest standards. Be sure to be out by 10am as they are there waiting. Lol. One of the best if not THE best cottages we have stayed in for cleanliness and everything you need. Absolutely stunning scenery and walks all around. The Riverside and forest walks at the bottom of the drive are excellent. Will be coming back again.

Really wonderful cottage.. Gorgeous location, well appointed, spotless and comfortable. We had a minor issue with hot water and the owner could not have been more helpful with, it was resolved incredibly fast and with plenty of communication. Lots of lovely touches too. Delighted.

The cottage is set in beautiful surroundings with the village pub 10 minutes walk away.. Great for dog walking and the outdoors. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you need including a welcome pack which was a very nice touch. We loved the cottage and it’s location.

Beautiful cottage surrounded by rolling hills with horses grazing in the next field.. What's not to like.. close to Blanchland, which is itself a beautiful village. Visit the tea room!
