  • "The cottage was lovely, and larger than expected."

    The only thing which let it down was the bathroom. I'm in my 60s, and rather large, so the bath was difficult for me. A shower with screen would have been a big help. We did have a problem with the heating, in our first week, but once the cottage had warmed up, we were fine. It was only the heater in the bedroom which didn't work, so the room was very cold, but the owners kindly gave us an electric radiator to use, which solved the problem. Altogether very satisfied with our stay.

  • "We had a lovely week in this cottage."

    It was ideally placed for exploring Northumberland and we would thoroughly recommend it. All you need is transport.

  • "Other than one problem with sharp screw heads in a doorway, which I've already mentioned to the owners, the place was very comfortable, and just what we wanted for a good holiday."

  • "Internal decor and furnishings rather dated."

    Hair washing difficult as no shower/mixer tap. Minor gripe about a perfectly serviceable cottage.

  • "We actually stayed in The Smithy as Manor Cottage was unavailable."

    The cottage and surrounds were very comfortable and it is a great location for exploring the area. The follow-up by staff on any requests we made was quick and polite. Only criticisms of the cottage would be that the bathroom fan sounded on its last legs and the electric hob plates were poor which made cooking a meal on them difficult !

  • "We were upgraded my the manager to 'Primula Patch', a slightly larger cottage."

    The description is basically accurate - if rather OTT ('darling bedrooms'?). We enjoyed walking in the Cheviot Hills - footpath from the site directly into the hills could be mentioned in the description. The accommodation is part of a 'country club' - a rather grand term for having a small pool and other facilities (closed for Covid and of no interest to us). It means some aspects are run a little bit like a hotel, with staff on site. TV reception was poor on many channels - probably due to the location. We were asked to put our full credit card details on a form and leave it in the public area outside the cottage to be collected by the on-site staff. We did not do that and would not expect anyone mindful of security to do so! (we had given details by phone, and could probably have dealt directly with staff).

  • "Firstly we , were upgraded to The Old Smithy due to a shower problem in Swale Cottage."

    Very pleased with the upgrade as it was detached cottage and was by stream . Walks from the this area were easy and spectacular. All in all, a very relaxing stay.

The property

Wooler 2.7 miles.

Rose Cottage is a charming Grade II listed cottage nestled in Akeld, Northumberland.

Bursting with character, this abode is ideal for a romantic retreat, boasting off-road parking and front and rear lawn gardens for spending the summer evenings on.

If you’re lucky, you might spot the elusive Cheviot goats grazing in the surrounding landscape – and occasionally wandering into the gardens, adding a magical touch to your stay.

Before stepping inside, take in the cottage’s white exterior with exposed stone, a classic feature that reflects its heritage and charm.

On entering the property through the cool, tiled hallway that sets a welcoming tone, the living and dining area hosts an exposed stone wall and a soft carpet underfoot, creating a warm, inviting space where rustic character meets comfort.

Here, you’re invited to sink into the sofa and unwind in front of the TV after a day of adventures.

From here, the well-equipped kitchen provides all the amenities you need to rustle up your meals to be enjoyed at the dining table while you discuss the day's activities, with handsome wooden fixtures lending a homely, traditional feel, as well as being home to a handy washing machine so you can freshen up your clothes. Moving through the cottage and into the bedroom, the plush king-size has a zip/link feature for a flexible sleeping arrangement you can look forward to retiring to, with neatly framed artwork adorning the walls and a soft carpet underfoot, creating a serene retreat that feels both personal and refined.

Completing the interior of this dwelling is a bathroom, complete with a basin, WC, and an original Victorian bath where you can relax and unwind before the next day of fun.

Beyond the cottage, a world of leisure and celebration awaits: challenge friends to a game on the snooker or football table, cool off in the swimming pool, or sip a drink at the rustic bar as laughter fills the air.

Families will delight in the play areas, while those dreaming of a special occasion will find wedding and event potential here, supported by trusted local contacts for caterers, florists, marquees, celebrants and more – everything you need to craft an unforgettable day.

Choose Rose Cottage for a tranquil break to Northumberland, where heritage meets indulgence and every detail invites you to linger a little longer.
