    Everything you could possibly need is there to make your holiday perfect. An extremely generous welcome pack greeted us on arrival. The owner is very friendly and came round to check all was well when we arrived. The house is in an ideal location for the local pubs and shops and for travelling around Northumberland. We hope to visit again.

    Everything you need, spotlessly clean, home from home. Lovely welcome pack, milk and eggs in the fridge plus a bottle of wine. 2 minute walk to the high street. Parking on driveway. We hope to return again. So much to see in this beautiful part of Northumberland.

  • "We were very pleased with 14 The Maltings."

    It was very comfortable. It’s facilities had been developed to a high standard and were well maintained. The outdoor seating area was excellent. We appreciated the basket of supplies that was left for us. We were pleased to meet the owner just after our arrival. The property has two televisions. We could not get either to work. In fact the one in the lounge wouldn’t even switch on.

    Theresa had gone the extra mile to ensure that we enjoyed our stay- a lovely hamper; milk, eggs & wine in the fridge & goodies left for us to enjoy. We have stayed in many holiday homes (with Sykes & others) & this was definitely the best by far.

    So nice of the owner to greet us personally. Amazing welcome hamper and toiletries. The house was beautifully appointed - everything you could possibly need. Lovely comfy beds. Ideal location - 2 mins to shops and pubs ( we recommend the Turks Head); few mins walk to the river for a pleasant walk. Rothbury itself is a good centre for exploring the North East and Scottish Borders. Would definitely highly recommend No. 14

  • "The property is well equipped and in a good location."

    A real home from home. The owner was very friendly and a thoughtful welcome pack provided. Our only comments would be that the front and side bedrooms require blackout blinds as the street lights outside shine all night and kept my son awake. We personally found all the bed mattresses very uncomfortable so didn’t have a good night sleep all week. We ended up using all the beds. We ate in most night so a dishwasher would be good, there is space in the kitchen and for a family it’s a positive to provide one now days. My final comment which the owner cannot do anything about and that would stop us staying in Rothbury again generally is the Church clock climes on the hour all night and this also contributed to our lack of sleep. The property is very close to the church. With the window open it is even louder so had to close the windows at night. Thank you.

    It was equipped with everything we needed and beautifully decorated and furnished. The garden is completely secure so extremely safe for any size of dog. It is close to a lovely river walk and the shops, pubs and restaurants are all a sort walk away. The central location makes it ideal for exploring Northumberland and the Scottish borders. We met the lovely owners, who gave us a welcome gift of food, wine and toiletries. It was perfect.

    It was in an ideal location with good local amenities. It was vey comfortable and the neighbours were friendly and helpful. We suggest that you warn visitors that the nearest petrol is in Alnwick, followed by Morpeth. These are both about 11 miles from the cottage so one is advised not to arrive with an empty tank. The cottage was nearly perfect, our only suggestions are: A steel to sharpen the knives A tea cozy and A grab rail in the shower for elderly and less agile visitors. A lovely spot for a holiday.

Stone houses, typical of the region, line the town’s steep main streets and there is a good range of shops on offer. With a golf course, public tennis courts and cycle hire close by and a variety of great houses and gardens to explore, including Cragside, Alnwick Castle (home of the Duke of Northumberland), Wallington Hall and a host of famous castles, this great location has plenty to offer.
