  Excellent facilities, cosy log fire after a day of exploring! Massive bed and very comfy, the nights are so quiet, have never slept so well.

• "An excellent stay over the New Year period."

  The weather was a challenge but the cottage was warm. It’s well equipped and nicely furnished. The outside space is great. Friendly helpful owners. Ideally located for exploring the Northumbrian countryside: quiet rural location yet only 20 miles or so from Newcastle. Highly recommended.

• "We had such a wonderful time at Sarah's Cottage and the owners were amazing too."

  The property was such a home from home and our young puppy settled straight away. We saw lot of beautiful places in this lovely part of the country - such an amazing area. Everything was 10/10 and we were reluctant to leave. Hopefully will be able to return soon!

• "Sarah’s Cottage is beautiful and finished to a very high standard."

  It is spacious, airy and immaculately clean. We were greeted by Sarah and Brian on our arrival and it was immediately apparent how warm and friendly they both are. The welcoming gifts of eggs (from their chickens), a cheese platter and lemon cake were really appreciated and very tasty. They are close by during your stay but that proximity does not overwhelm in any way at all, in fact quite the opposite- it’s lovely to be able to say hello and really good should you need any advice. We had a wonderful stay in the cottage and it is a great location to use as a base to explore Northumberland, a beautiful county with access to lovely beaches just a short drive away. We loved our stay at Sarah’s Cottage and we’re sorry to leave.

• "Wow wow wow."

  From the minute we arrived at Sarah’s Cottage we realised we had hit the jackpot!! We have stayed at many places (with our spaniel) and this is top drawer for comfort, relaxation, style, presentation and enabled our complete R and R. On arrival we had welcome gifts, local gorgeous cheeses, a lemon drizzle cake to die for and freshly laid eggs (produced on site by the resident chickens). Brian and Sarah are fabulous hosts and their local knowledge of the best places to visit was a big help. There was everything you would ever need. The bed was sooo comfortable and the shower amazing!! Top quality throughout. We very much look forward to returning to Sarah’s Cottage very soon. John Jackie and Archie

  It was cosy and warm in a quiet rural setting. Comfortable bed and lovely big bath towels. Sarah and Brian were available if we needed anything and provided a welcome pack including eggs, cheeses and cake.

  House was spacious and had everything we could ask for. We had a lovely warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble for Brian and Sarah. Our dogs and little boy loved the garden and being able to let off some steam in a beautiful secure area was amazing. Little one also loved the doves outside the door and Brian was kind enough to take him to collect eggs which he loved. In short, a fantastic holiday which was so good we have booked for next year! Thanks so much for everything Sarah and Brian

  From the initial lovely warm welcome we received on arrival to the day of departure Sarah and Brian were very welcoming hosts, full of local information about places to visit and local eateries for us to try out. We were greeted by a welcome pack of Eggs, Cake, Milk, Cheese, Biscuits’ and Fruit. Tea, Coffee and Sugar were also provided. The cottage is spacious, clean and warm with a very comfortable king size bed and a hot powerful shower in the en- suite. The cottage is the ideal place to return to having spent the day exploring one or many Northumberland’s attractions. Tony, Janet and Daisy (the pooch)

• "Overall we had a great stay at Sarah’s Cottage and both Sarah and Brian were welcoming and helpful."

  The cottage was spacious, well equipped, and the bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable. Very good shower and the cottage was very clean. The owners kindly provided a ‘welcome pack’ of cheese, eggs, milk, and local cheese. The only thing we didn’t like was having to avoid bird droppings and feathers around the doorway of the property. This was because there were nesting boxes with doves attached to the wall near the doorway. This was not obvious from the photos on the website.
