The cottage was in a great location. It was very clean and comfy. Communication with the owner was very quick. The cottage has plenty of room for 7 plus a dog. Facilities were good. The family bathroom had huge shower and beautiful roll top bath in it. The cottage had lovely lighting. There was lots of info about local things to do . There iRead mores a lovely Indian and brewery in Bellingham. Unfortunately we didn't find the food at the local pub great but the staff were great and good bar. If we were to visit the same area again I'd want to stay at the cottage again. Hide

Lovely base for exploring Northumbria. Worth exploring local walks around West Woodburn and Bellingham. And then Cragside and the Northumbria park a short drive away. Petrol stations are a tad remote so keep an eye out.

A gorgeous holiday cottage with a beautiful private garden to sit in. Very well equipped, lovely comfy beds and modern showers. West Woodburn is a great place to base a holiday in, easy to access Hadrians Wall, Hexham, Kielder Forest and many other attractions. The cottage is a few doors from the local pub which serves great food and welcomes dogs Read moretoo. The local Post Office is also close, and it has a handy wee shop for anything you might have forgotten. Highly recommend Yarrow Cottage. Hide

An excellent cottage in a very good location for seeing the sights of Northumberland whether you enjoy history, walking, shopping or beach life. Yarrow is very comfortable and well equipped and a pleasure to go back to after a full day. I would happily recommend it and hope to go back next year.
