Perched along the northernmost tip of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this charming cottage is surrounded by spellbinding countryside. Offering idyllic and secluded holiday accommodation for two, this delightful property is set within the grounds of a Georgian farmhouse and makes a fabulous base for exploring Northumberland.

Beautiful cottage, decorated to a very high standard. Bathroom is gorgeous, good shower, and all facilities were well maintained. I certainly hope to come back again.

This is a beautiful, little well-equipped cottage, an ideal base for exploring the Hexham area of Northumberland. We felt that the overall standard was let down by cleaning.

Lovely little cottage and location was beautiful but unfortunately the owners were away and couldn't provide us with a warm duvet and there were no blankets. We were told to put the heating on at night, luckily the lady next door gave us her duvet as she bought her own linen, the owners were not particularly helpful plus the place needed a deeper cRead morelean.

The cottage was adequate for our holiday requirements. Seating would probably be more uncomfortable for older guests as the settee is quite low. It is based in a quiet country location which is ideal for nature lovers.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful, peaceful location but not really in walking distance of any shops or pubs. The cottage is a little bit tired but reasonably well equipped. Wi-fi is good. Hexham is a short drive down the hill but most other places of interest are at least a 20 minute drive away. We like walking so did two good walks alongside HadriaRead morens Wall from The Sill.
