Known as the 'Centre of Britain' this small market town is a great place from which to explore both Northumberland and Cumbria. Haltwhistle boasts a good range of shops and pubs - one of which, The Black Bull, is a real ale pub serving good food! There is an excellent leisure centre with heated open air swimming pool and cycle hire in the town, with pony trekking nearby. One of the best preserved stretches of Hadrian's Wall is only a mile to the north with various museums, forts and milecastles to be seen. There is even an ongoing 'dig' at the nearby site of Vindolanda. This truly is magnificent walking, riding and cycling country, with the Pennine Way and various bridleways and cycle routes passing rivers, forests, castles and of course, Hadrian's Wall. Visitors will enjoy this location in all weather and all seasons – a regular train and bus service from the town to Newcastle, The Metro Centre and Carlisle, means that you can leave the car behind and enjoy!

Sykes staff were very helpful. The cottage was so warm and welcoming
and had everything we could have wished for which impressed the Italians in our company. All was so very clean and made everyone feel quite at home, a great holiday.
Mrs Harrison, Haltwhistle, December 2011
The cottage was very spacious and comfortable. It was close to the supermarket and town centre, yet nice and quiet. The owners welcoming and helpful.
Dr Hunt, Taupo, September 2011
All four of us were thrilled with the cottage and the amenities provided by the hosts. The cake and flowers provided by the hosts were a nice touch and much appreciated. Walking Hadrian's Wall and the local history was initially the prime reason for choosing the cottage location and we all liked the little market town of Haltwhistle and surrounding towns very much and the locals were very friendly.
Mr Greed, Colchester, August 2011
The house was very comfortable and well equipped with good quality furnishings and crockery. The patio area overlooked the owners beautiful garden.The owners lived next door and were very welcoming and helpful. They left scones and jam and milk for our arrival. This is one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in.
