Property was well located for visiting hadrians wall. But their were a few issues we found aswell. Firstly we thought the property was tired and hadn't been looked after well and wasn't well reflected in the photos which seemed very out of date. Secondly the king size bed had old faded torn stained bedding and un-ironed. Along with this there was a second uncovered mattress put on one of the beds. Which we found out was simply from another property and because they had no were else to put it decided to chuck it onto the king-size bed which lead to a 3 bad night's sleep untell we were told the story and could take it off if we wish. Thirdly when we arrived the property had been cleaned but not to a great standard and we had to hover around ourselves so we felt comfortable (I would like to say we didn't ring the owner that night about the cleaning as we got in late and were tired from a long drive and didn't want to be disturbed). All in all I felt although me and my group had a good holiday the only point that let it down was the accomadation and wasn't worth the price paid.

Steep stairs and downstairs bathroom may be a problem for less mobile customers

Comfortable cottage, ideal location and public transport, enabling us to leave the car at the cottage, very good.. Only comments relate to the state of the garden area, a need to clear/tidy up and the lack of recycling facilities at the property, resulting in our having to find an alternative, namely the local collection point, rather than dispose of glass/plastic/paper etc. in the landfill waste.

The cottage was of a good standard and in a great location.. Was a perfect base for getting to and from Newcastle for the Great North Run. The cottage was well fitted out with everything that you would need.

My wife and I are in our eighties and didn't realise that the bathroom/toilet was downstairs.. This made it very difficult during the night for trips to the toilet, with the bedrooms being upstairs.

We were met by the owner who had left us a bottle of wine and strawberries and cream as a welcome. The property was a good size for the four adults using it. It was all kitted out with everything one required. The location of the property was perfect for walking Hadrian's wall. There were also numerous other spectacular walks locally. The village of Haltwhistle was a small United Nations. We met and spoke to people from various parts of America, Holland, Germany as well as others from various parts of England. I would recommend the Black Bull pub in the centre of the town for a great atmosphere, different types of ales and good pub grub. The village has all the amenities you would require and there are plenty of takeaway shops nearby. The main town of Hexham is only 13 miles away if you require the major store chains, MS, Waitrose, Tesco, Lidl, Next etc.

We arrived quite late in the evening having had a long drive to get there and were very pleased with what we found. The cottage is kitted out to be a real home from home with every need catered for. The wine, chocolates, biscuits and milk were a really nice thought. Plenty of large fluffy towels, freesat tv, dvd player, dvds, books, log effect fire and comfy chairs to relax. The bed was extremely comfy and was hard to leave in the mornings. The area was stunning and even I managed a healthy walk each day. The food in the Black Bull is not to be missed as is the warm welcome :) I would definitely recommend this cottage. The landlady is very friendly. BTW the kettle is in the cupboard above the cooker :)

Although very modern in decor, Hollie Cottage is still a lovely cosy cottage set in an ideal location for exploring the wall. Overall good value for money. I would recommend Sykes Cottages to friends - the service is excellent.

The cottage was very well equipped there was everything that you could possibly need, which was excellent. The location was great, and made a good base for walking parts of Hadrian's Wall. The owner had thought of everything, and the chocolates, wine and milk in the cottage on our arrival were a really nice touch.
