What a find! Amazing cottage which had everything we needed for a family break. Location great - on a farm a minutes drive from the village. There is a walkway from the cottage to the village via the farm track & fields which took around 15 mins. Lowick had a lovely pub & shop. The cottage itself was immaculate & the owner was on hand to answer any questions we had on arrival. All rooms are huge & great for a family getaway. Pool table was a great bonus! We will definately stay again & would highly recommend.10/10.

A great weekend spent at Mill House.. The house was ideal for a large group, the downstairs areas were very large with more than enough seating for everyone. The bedrooms were all of a very good size too, with 2 having en suites. Mill House was in a very peaceful location, but with easy access to lots of areas of interest including Holy Island. The communication from Susie was fab and some nice touches were left in the kitchen for our arrival, which were very much appreciated. I would definitely recommend a stay here and hope to return.

We stopped for 4 nights 3rd - 7th May, 6 adults and 2 toddlers and I have to say that the cottage is excellent in every way and is one of if not the best cottage we have ever stopped in. There is plenty of space throughout the cottage and has all the facilities that you would require. There is usually a discussion about who is going to get which bedroom, but all 4 bedrooms in the cottage are massive, with 2 being en-suite so there was no discussion. The location is very peaceful and there is plenty to see and do within a reasonable travelling distance. Hopefully we will be back in the future!

This is the second time we have stopped at Mill House and were all excited about staying again.. We are a family of 9 including two chidren. The Barn is very spacious with a large kitchen and lounge with plenty of seating and a snooker table at the other end. A downstairs toilet is very useful. Upstairs the bedrooms are all of a good size two of them en-suite and a large family bathroom as well as a utility room with washer and dryer. The hot water was plentiful. The property was very clean/ A welcome pack was left for us. There was everything that you could need in the kitchen a varied supply of pots and pans. Lots of magazines books games. Information on anything you are interested in. The Barn is very well situated for a lot of places. We went on the train from Berwick on Tweed to Edinburgh for the day, Eyemouth, Kelso races and Bamburgh Castle, Grace Darling Museum and the Church we also did a round walk around Norham Castle, walking on the English side of the River Tweed. We ate at the Black Bull in Lowick on two nights and another night in Wooller at Milan an italian. Both were delicious. Everything about the property description is true. We did meet the owner who was very nice. There are sheep all around the property which my grand daughters loved.

Miss Swann

We stayed at Mill House over Christmas and it was a fantastic place to spend time with friends and family.. The living spaces are very sociable, the kitchen's well equipped, and the bedrooms are large and comfortable. The location is relatively remote, which is what we wanted, but there are some lovely walks and Lowick is a 5 minute drive away. Recommended!

Stunning property, big and bright rooms, lots of space.. Close to stunning areas for walks inc Bamburgh & Coldstream. Will be back

Mrs Read

Mill House was perfect! It is in a lovely setting and is really spacious and well-planned. It is beautifully furnished and the kitchen was a joy to be in--not something I've ever said before of a holiday home! We felt welcome and enjoyed the surrounding countryside. The village of Lowick has a lovely shop and good Dining Pub. The weather was mixed but the house was warm and sheltered. That and the Northumbrian Coast and scenery made it a great holiday.

Mill house exceeded our expectations in every way.. A beautiful really spacious and well equipped barn conversion in a stunning location which although rural was only just over a mile from a lovely village with an excellent shop and two good pubs. Even though we were a group of 8 adults there was ample room for all.

Second time staying in mill house and will be staying again we all love it even .... Second time staying in mill house and will be staying again we all love it even the teenagers couldn’t wait to get back there it’s a home from home with the added extra of the pool table which is a big hit with the whole family The pictures don’t do it justice it’s such a lovely big house with everything you could possibly need

Mr Martin

EXCELLENT BARN CONVERSION.. Large kitchen and dinning room you could hold a dance party. Large lounge the only complaint was that the sofas were to low and soft for us old ones the younger generation had no problems. The pool table was well used every evening no TV. The location was ideal so quite and peaceful and easy to visit Seahouses, Holy Island and Berwick and other locations to many to name. The bedrooms were ideal and adequate sizes. No problem getting Tesco to deliver groceries. Would recommend this property and the helpful owners to all and sundry. The local pubs had good food. If we go north again this will be the place stay.

We loved Mill House and had a very enjoyable week.. The cottage sleeps at least eight people and our party should have been eight but ended up being six of us. We struggled with the fridge space, especially as it is not near a supermarket so we were shopping for a few days at a time. Had there been eight of us it would have been impossible to refrigerate everything. The size of the kitchen at Mill House would easily take a bigger fridge or even an additional low fridge. Apart from that it was very clean and comfortable and so peaceful, we loved it.

Ms Alldritt

Mill House is a wonderful place for a holiday.. It is so comfortable and spacious and a perfect location for exploring Northumberland on bicycles. We absolutely loved it! I highly recommend this property.Thank you so much for a great time!

Mrs Turtle

Our party consisted of 4 couples the house was way above what we expected very large and spotless.. The only fault we found was the pool table was in the same room as the tv so very noisy and impossible to hear when someone was playing. Having said that we all had a very enjoyable break in a super place.

Ms Clark

The cottage was really good and comfortable for the eight of us staying.. It would have been nice to have a few cleaning products for the kitchen and bathroom as we were unable to clean after a meal or shower. The cottage is a bit way out from the village for anyone who likes to walk to the shop or pub and the approaching road is full of potholes, not everyone has a 4x4 vehicle .Having said that we had a great holiday and the men loved pool table.

2nd time we've been to Mill House.. Words cannot do justice to how good it is in all respects - location, cleanliness, facilities ( pool table being my favourite!).

Ms Nicholls

A wonderful cottage that all 8 of our party enjoyed, pool table was a big hit, kitchen well equiped.. Positive communication with owners. Only downside of booking with Sykes is charge for using a credit card for payment.

Quite simply the best holiday let we have ever stayed in. Great setting, fantastic home from home feeling. Everything you could ever need for a lovely stay. Lots of space, big comfortable beds, huge farmhouse kitchen. The well stocked welcome basket was an unexpected surprise. Truly amazing place

One of the best cottages we've had.. Kitchen was amazing and pool table a real bonus. We hope to come back next year.

We stayed at Mill House over the New Year period. It is situated in a very peaceful spot with amazing views. The owners could not have been more helpful. The house is huge and was easily big enough for the nine of us. It was beautifully decorated and finished to a very high standard, whilst still maintaining a "home from home" feel. We had everything we needed to enjoy a lovely holiday. It was perfectly located for all the local attractions and we enjoyed our holiday very much. We would highly recommend.

This is a beautiful barn, with lots of room for everyone. Large kitchen and everything that you could want for a break. Hot water was plentiful which is essential for 7 adults and two small children. The sitting room is spacious and the pool table a welcome extra. Bedrooms were spacious and bed linen and towels were lovely, Everything was very clean. The welcome pack was excellent, biscuits, wine, tea, coffee, milk, butter, bread. Our grand children loved the fact that there were sheep in the field next to the drive. It would be lovely to stay in the summer here. We booked through Sykes Cottages but actually received an email direct from Susie advising us of how to reach the barn and what was provided. There is a book with information about restaurants, shops. Lots of leaflets on places to visit. We went to Edinburgh on the train from Berwick on Tweed about a 45 minute ride it was quite reasonable. Kelso, Bamburgh Castle, Lindisfarne, Seahouses. We had a walk around Ford and Etal which was 6 miles. Lots of places to walk around the area. Everything about the barn was outstanding and we will certainly recommend it to our friends. We hope to return at a future date.

This is a lovely house in beautiful countryside. The bird life in the copse which backs on to the garden is endlessly fascinating. We had lengthy evening meals together in the kitchen with its large refectory table. Very well situated for a mix of coastal and hill country activities and visits.

Mr Urquhart

A large property with large rooms; a large lounge and games room, and the bedrooms were all a great size and all clean to high standard. It was an excellent base for touring the local area, there was so much to see in easy travelling distance.

This cottage is by far the best I have ever stayed at. The cottage was fitted and furnished to a standard that far surpasses anything I have seen before.
