“Lovely peaceful cottage with ...”

Lovely peaceful cottage with spectacular views. Our hosts were most welcoming and the tray of scones and rock buns was a nice surprise after a long journey. Dove cottage is spotlessly clean and furnished and decorated to a high standard with everthing you need. There are so many information guides in the cottage about local flora and fauna, walking/cylcling routes, places to eat and things to see, one week at Dove Cottage is certainly not enough.

Lovely peaceful cottage with spectacular views. Our hosts were most welcoming and the tray of scones and rock buns was a nice surprise after a long journey. Dove cottage is spotlessly clean and furnished and decorated to a high standard with everthing you need. There are so many information guides in the cottage about local flora and fauna, walking/cylcling routes, places to eat and things to see, one week at Dove Cottage is certainly not enough. We especially liked the fact that Dove Cottage has gained the Green Tourism gold award for its environmentally friendly features amd initiatives. We'll definitely be returning to Dove Cottage.

“Peaceful well appointed pet friendly cottage”

Lovely traditional cottage, with many original features, as well as all mod cons, very cosy with log burner, and warm heating, excellent modern kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine, comfy bed and modern bathroom, all fitted to a very high standard. Great location, short drive from the picturesque village, amazing views from the property, plenty of walks and places to explore locally, but also a great spot to use as a base for the areas other attractions, very peaceful and relaxing place, we enjoyed our albeit too short stay, Barry the host is extremely welcoming and friendly, a great source of local info, the cottage is welcoming with locally produced cakes, butter , milk and tea on arrival, will definitely return next time we go to this lovely part of England.

“Stunning!”

We have stayed at Dove cottage on many occasions, and each time, the cottage and its owners, Barry & Elaine, never cease to surprise us with their kindness & warmth. We always take one of our dogs with us, Charlie, who has taken to Northumbrian life with gusto - Barry can certainly recommend some stunning walks! Our last stay in February this year, coincided with the 'Beast from the East' snow storm, and sadly we were snowed in and had to stay for another week!! But again, Barry and Elaine looked after us as if we were members of their family, ensuring we had enough provisions and logs for the fire! Stunning cottage with spectacular views!
