Ideally placed cottage for all major attractions.. The most beautiful countryside. Covid 19 did not impinge on holiday expectations as good compliance with guidelines including the advice given for the cottage. Helpful owners who catered for bike storage. Sustrans 1 cycle route was challenging and the cyclist needs were on the whole well set up. The weather was unusually glorious!

Lovely cottage, clean, comfortable, everything was there we needed, apart from an iron.. Very quite as well. The owners were lovely, very friendly. The location was great, lots of places to see, not far from the Scottish borders.

Mrs Butterworth

February 2019

The cottage was spotless and everything was to hand.. The owners had took a lot of trouble to make the stay wonderful. It was ideally situated for touring about. We would certainly go back and recommend it to others.

The photos of the cottage really don’t do it justice - it was just lovely! And such a beautiful part of the UK. After a hard day’s exploring it was fantastic to come back to Stable Cottage to recharge our batteries.

Mrs Jones

A wonderful cottage

Mr Haughian

July 2018

Just returned from a lovely holiday at Stable Cottage.. The photos of the cottage do not do the property justice. It is a lovely cottage, in a beautifully peaceful location. The garden is wonderful. Within easy driving distance to Alnwick, Seahouses, Bamburgh, Spittal - beautiful beach and Berwick upon Tweed. There is also a lovely beach at Scremerston.

Ms Tonge

June 2018

The images listed for Stable Cottage do not give the house and garden justice - in reality the property is amazing; the furnishings are quaint and cottage like and of superior quality.. The location is superb; nice and quiet like we like it and within easy driving reach of the coastal and inland sights. The property is packed with books, CDs, DVDs, games etc. There was even a badminton set to use in the garden; and although in our 50s we have come home and decided to take up badminton as it was such a buzz! We were welcomed with fresh flowers and biscuits and even some tea bags to get us started. The internet was magic and worked better than at home. We had a great time and will definately return.

Mr Brown

May 2018

The cottage is ideally situated for exploration in Northumberland.. A great secluded, private, quiet garden. Which our 2 year old boy loved, along with the toy tractor. I would recommend this cottage to anyone. Thanks to Saul and Emma for a fantastic family holiday!

Stable cottage is very well situated for touring the Northumberland coast. It is in Belford which is an interesting village. The layout is very good, and the beds and bathroom were good. It is clean, quiet at night and the wildlife and farm animals etc were interesting. I do feel though that it needs some TLC. The DVD was used during bad weather, and proved to be difficult to use even with following the instructions as it didn't work the way it should have done. We are used to DVD players which made this one frustrating to operate. We didn't like the mix of drinking mugs. Some of the crockery is chipped and needs throwing away. Likewise with some cooking items. The toilet seat needs replacing with a white one. These points are small and easily fixed to make the cottage great again. Overall, the cottage was slightly disappointing, but it is well located and we enjoyed our holiday.

Mr Dolman

October 2016

The positive bits! * The cottage was well described, cosy and a home-from-home, which is what I wanted. * A good location for exploring that part of Northumberland. * Represented good value for money for the time of year. * I would stay there again. Aspects to consider improving upon: * Generally the cottage was in good condition, albeit the small sofa appeared quite old and was not as comfortable as I would have liked. * The kitchen was well equipment and of a good standard in general. Some of the cooking pots and pans were worn and showing their age. * When removing the bedding on the final morning before leaving, it was only then that I noticed that the pillows were quite badly stained underneath the pillow case and did look poor. Pillows should perhaps be changed more regularly. These are suggested aspects to improve the cottage and irrespective of the above, I would book the cottage again. It was a good holiday. Ian Dolman

This is the third time I have been here and I enjoyed it just as much as before. The cottage is nice and warm inside and we loved watching the hedgehog that visited the garden at night.

Mr Gibson

The property was very clean, neat and tidy. The owners have obviously given a lot of thought to the 'little things' which reflects their consideration for guest's comfort and convenience. The wood burning stove was brilliant! One of the best properties we've ever stayed in.

Guest

October 2013

Stable Cottage is a beautiful little cottage very well placed near the A1 for getting about the area, and within walking distance of Belford for supplies and amenities.. The cottage had a lovely patio and garden which we made use of. The main room was a cosy and comfortable haven after a hard day out enjoying ourselves. There was nothing we did not like, we had a great week staying in a lovely cottage.

Very well prepared cottage, lovely character. Nice garden. Very good location for Northumberland coast without the expense of staying closer to Bamburgh (still only a 10 min drive from the beaches though). A shame that there is not more in Belford itself, although the pubs and hotels are Reasonable - just a little lacking in character I suppose.

The locality of the property was ideal for us as we had come to do some painting, so even on the days we could not go out the lounge was ideal for painting, as we had come prepared with photographs. Also when the weather perked up we were well situated to go out and explore all the wonderful castles and beaches.

Absolutely loved this cottage ,it was very well presented and extrememly cosy.I love an open fire especially in the winter coming in from a windy day on the beach or a walk out in the hills.Great location with lots of good pubs in easy striking distance if you don't want to cook.

A well kept, welcoming cottage that provided everything we required for a comfortable stay. The beautiful garden was perfect for a family, with plenty of room for children to play safely. We would definitely recommend this one.

We had difficulty in the past finding a comfortable cottage for two, so decided to look at properties for four, and we were not disappointed. Stable cottage was delightful, well equipped, and superbly located for both the Northumberland coast and countryside. We have already recommended this property to our children, all now married with young families, and would have no hesitation in sending them there. The property was very convenient, with parking at the door, and a lovely garden, safe for even the youngest children. The owners have children themselves, and clearly know what makes your stay comfortable and extra special.

The cottage is extremely cosy and comfortable but also light and airy. Although it is very close to the A1 it is quiet and perfectly located for exploring the region. There were lots of little touches which we appreciated such as the many lamps, all operated by one switch and the cosy wood burning stove although we didn't need to use it. The garden is a decent size for children to play. We also appreciated the selection of toys and children's books.
