  • "The property was very well situated for a holiday in Northumberland."

    Close to amenities yet quiet and rural. We were told that there wouldn’t be any towels provided but there actually each bed had a bath and hand towel. So I needed to have bothered packing any from home, maybe the listing could be updated. One negative is that the bathrooms probably need updating. The main bathroom bath has no shower over it which most people tend to like these days. The en-suite shower room was equipped with a rather weak Mira electric shower. Also the pipe work was quite noisy after using the taps or loo flush in the main bathroom. The kitchen was great, very clean and well equipped. We will definitely return.

  • "The toilet seat in the en-suite bathroom needs adjustment - it will not stay up on its own, needing to be held up."

    It was an inconvenience that only one set of keys was provided, given that the property can accommodate six people it is not reasonable to expect them all to be departing and arriving back at the same time. My party had to resort to hiding the keys in the nearby vegetation - an unsatisfactory solution.

The property

Wooler 2.7 miles.

Blueberry Cottage is a characterful stone dwelling hidden on tranquil private lands within the rural village of Akeld.

Offering a fantastic base from which to explore Northumberland National Park.

Whether travelling as a family or group of friends, there is something for everyone to enjoy with an abundance of scenic hiking trails and plenty of attractions right on your doorstep – including the magical sight of Cheviot goats, shy yet majestic creatures that roam the rugged hills and sometimes wander into the gardens, offering a rare and enchanting glimpse of Northumberland’s wild heart.

Make yourself feel right at home in the attractive living/dining room, as you settle into the bright, carpeted sitting area with its plush fabric sofas, wooden beams overhead and a large window framing views of the courtyard, while you discuss the exciting adventures that lie ahead.

Cross on over to the dining table and devour a delicious evening feast, lovingly prepared by the chef of the group in the beautiful country-style kitchen with wooden fixtures.

Escape the excitement as you sneak off to the bathroom for a long and relaxing soak in the tub, or choose to delight in a refreshing rinse in the light and airy shower room with pretty floral wallpaper, resting just across the way.

At the end of your evenings, retire to one of the three well-appointed bedrooms consisting of a double, a twin and a bunk room, each carpeted and bright, together providing ample sleeping space for up to six guests.

Beyond the cottage walls, the experience truly comes alive.

Enjoy hours of entertainment with a snooker table and football table, or take a dip in the inviting swimming pool before unwinding at the rustic bar.

Children will love the dedicated play areas, while grown-ups can savour the property’s unique potential for weddings and events – with plenty of local contacts for caterers, florists, marquee hire, celebrants and more to make your celebration unforgettable.

Live life to the fullest on a fun-filled escape to Blueberry Cottage.
