The area is so peaceful and the people friendly.. We didn't eat out at all this time due to Covid 19, the facilities in the cottage enabled us to cook everything we needed. Home from Home. xx

This is a small but well equipped cottage.. We stayed with our two children. The owners are brilliantly helpful and think of everything. The location is a beautiful village with a wonderful local shop and pub. Also a great playing field and playground for youngsters - although the playground was closed due to Covid. We made the most of being between mountains in the national park and the beautiful coast. A great stay

Longhorsley is a great central location for seeing Northumberland being only 20 mins from Morpeth, Alnwick and Rothbury.. The Old School Room is small(ish) but perfectly formed and well run by Clare and Scott. Wholly recommended.

The owners were extremely friendly and helpful.. They were generous in their attitude - for example, the lovely welcome pack (even treats for the dogs) and inviting us to use their garden, especially when they were away for a few days. We felt very much at ease.
