Hepple Hill Cottage

Another wonderful week at Hepple Hill Cottage, Edmundbyers.

After exciting but very tiring adventures with family, the cottage is a perfect haven. It is so comfortable with furnishings and equipment of the highest quality, even knives that actually cut! Thank you to the owners who have taken such care to give their guests the best possible home from home The local pub and the Baa are very welcoming also

It’s hard to find words to describe this property, so I’ve gone for just two - absolutely superb.

This is one of the most comfortable and well equipped properties we’ve stayed in. We loved the ‘upside down’ aspect which allowed us to sit at the amazing, hand crafted wooden table and take in the view. It was lovely to meet the owner as we parked and we thank her for the thoughtful welcome pack. The Malbec wine is my husband’s favourite. Everything was high end and extremely comfortable. It just made our few days away all the more special. A real ‘find’.

An absolutely superb cottage.

Beautifully furnished and equipped. Stunning views from every window

Lovely accommodation, quiet location with beautiful views all around.

The cottage has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The kitchen/ dining area is particularly nice on a sunny morning. The cottage was a good base to explore the area. We visited Blanchland, Hadrians Wall, Vindolanda, Hexham & Durham so much to see & do in the area. The owner texted me early on our check in date to say the accommodation was ready for us & we could check in early if that suited us. There was Prosecco biscuits & crisps waiting on the table when we arrived which was very nice. The house was very clean, shower gel & shampoo also provided it was a very nice place to stay & we had a lovely holiday.

A superb, cosy, well appointed property.

We have now stayed there twice this year and intend returning soon... The setting of this property in Edmundbyers is also wonderful..

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage.

It’s incredibly well equipped - Alexa, Netflix and proper coffee made it feel like a real home from home. The peaceful location was perfect for unwinding, and the dedicated office space plus excellent Wi‑Fi meant working from home was effortless. The beds were super comfortable and we slept so well. We’d thoroughly recommend this place and would love to come back.

Hepple Hill cottage is a unique and characterful property.

The view from the kitchen/dining room is one of its best features, with hills, moors, birds and sheep to gaze at. Also very welcome was the clean and bright accommodation and generosity of the owners. As a keen birder I was in heaven! Even the trespassing hens and cockerels in the pretty garden were charming. I will definitely recommend this lovely cottage to friends and family.

We had the most wonderful stay at Hepple Hill Cottage.

It is a beautiful cottage with a lovely cosy living area (very warm even during a snowy week in February) boasting fantastic views across the moors. The cottage is incredibly well equipped, with everything thought of - excellent cooking equipment, dressing gowns and slippers, and a thoughtful welcome basket. We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay and would certainly highly recommend this to others looking for a restful break, surrounded by countryside but close to so many excellent attractions.

A beautiful upside down property in a fabulous location that exceeded the listing on the website.

Comfortably and tastefully furnished with a well equipped kitchen which has beautiful views. The welcome basket was a nice touch. Towels, bathrobes and slippers are also provided. This property is a standout property - Upside down accommodation is the way to go and you would be hard pushed to beat a stay at Hepple Hill!

Hepple Hill Cottage is quirky, very well equipped and in a stunning location.

Being 'upside down' results in amazing views in every direction. Even on a misty morning we enjoyed the outlook, though visitors need to be able to cope with stairs.

Wow.

What a beautiful gem of a cottage. The photos on the website do not do it justice! Everything you need and more for a brilliant time away! Could not recommend this property highly enough!

HEPPLE HILL COTTAGE IS THE MOST COMFORTING AND HOMELY PROPERTY WE HAVE STAYED IN.

THE ACCOMODATION IS DELIGHTFUL WITH ATTRACTIVE FURNISHINGS, PLENTY OF PLACES TO SIT AND RELAX, GREAT BEDROOMS AND SOME OF THE FINEST VIEWS ACROSS THE MOORS. THE LOCATION IS PERFECT FOR GETTING OUT AND ABOUT EITHER ON FOOT OR BY CAR TO SO MANY PLACES WORTH VISITING. WE LIKE IT SO MUCH THAT WE WILL BE MAKING A RETURN VISIT AS SOON AS WE CAN.

From the moment we arrived, this cottage delighted us.

We adored its quirky layout and that certain undefinable something that made us feel instantly at home. We have stayed in many properties, but none have ever been nearly so immaculately clean. The furniture was very nice indeed with lots of table lamps which gave a nice ambience when the sun had gone down. We would normally watch TV in the evenings but testament to the wonderful experience of being at Hepple Hill is that it remained turned off completely for five out of seven nights, so lovely was it to just enjoy a meal, glass of wine or two and just being there! Communication from the very friendly owner was also great and there was complimentary fizz, shortbread and milk waiting for us on arrival. This cottage will be a very hard act to follow and we definitely hope to return.

A very peaceful location with a quirky layout.

The upstairs living area flows really well and I don't think you'd ever find a better view from the kitchen sink! I agree with a previous review that said it's not particularly suitable for a family with younger children as the master bedroom is quite far from the other two rooms. There is everything you need, toiletries, a superbly equipped kitchen and comfortable sofas. I would highly recommend the location as it's central to many beautiful towns and attractions Inc. Hexham, Blanchland, Beamish and Durham. The local Youth Hostel & campsite The Baa, has a wonderful bar and delicious pizzas to takeaway.

The cottage was first class, and the host was very helpful.

Had a fantastic stay in a beautiful area. Almost certainly will go back!

Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage with us.

It was so beautiful, comfortable and well equipped with beautiful gardens and amazing views. And it was so peaceful. We had an amazing fortnight, with so much to see and do in the area. Will definitely return and recommend to friends.

Overall this was a great cottage with everything provided - very well equipped kitchen and the books, games, furnishings etc all made you feel at home.

There were even bathrobes! We loved the beautiful rural setting (and the views) and made day trips to Durham, Hadrians Wall, Hexham which were not too far away and also a slightly longer trip to take in Alnick and the fabulous Farne Islands. The cottage layout is a bit quirky - it was fine for us but the master bedroom (with the best bathroom) is some distance from the other 2 bedrooms which may not suit those with very young children.

Hepple Hill Cottage is the best self catering cottage we've ever stayed in!

The cottage is beautiful, it's so quiet. The views are breathtaking. Loads of parking, lovely garden to sit in and everything you'd need for a relaxing holiday. Within easy driving distance of Beamish and Vindolander and two pubs a very short walk away in the village.

Fantastic cottage, well presented and equipped.

Has everything you need for a great stay. Lovely location, plenty to see and do nearby. Super hosts, with great communication and keen to ensure everything is okay. Would highly recommend.

very well equipped cottage with great views of countryside.

great place to stay. Good sized rooms .Recommended

The property is in a beautiful location and had all the amenities for a lovely holiday.

It is ideally situated for visiting the Hadrian's wall, the north Pennines and Northumbria. We visited Durham, Beamish museum, Seaham, and Hadrian's wall in our short five days there. If a mountain biker or walker you have plenty of options here. We actually arrived early, but it was no problem to the owner who happily showed us around the property, thank you for that. I was even trusted to water their plants.

We had a wonderful week in this fabulous cottage.

The upsidedown layout provided a large kitchen/diner and separate living room with great sitting areas to take in the views. Everywhere was kitted out well for cooking and relaxing. The outside dining area was very much appreciated. There was loads to do in the lovely surrounding area.

A lovely warm comfy house.

Extremely well equipped throughout the house.fabulous views. Best we’ve ever stayed at and we’ve been self catering for years. Good quality on household equipment.will visit again hopefully soon.never been to Northumberland before will visit again it’s wild and beautiful

Excellent facilities with all we needed for a very comfortable stay.

Edmundbyers is a good place for exploring many local towns and villages.

A lovely well equipped comfortable cottage with beautiful views made our holiday really enjoyable.

Great property, the best overall one we have been to in over 30+ years.

Brilliant cottage with all the amenities and views to die for.

Interior is very comfortable and spacious, with good sized bedrooms. Living spaces are exceptional and with extensive views across the beautiful countryside. The property is clean and well cared for. Although there is a main road close by, this is not intrusive at all and you barely hear the traffic, such as it is and that's not much. The farm cockerel from next door is noisier! Outside spaces are attractive and in fine weather would be lovely to sit in with a glass of something. The village is stunning, easily and quickly accessible from the cottage and the setting is magnificent. Great walks from the front door. Owners are friendly and are easily contactable. Highly recommend for 6 people Who love the countryside

We have stayed at quite a few holiday cottages and this one is right up there with the best.

Very clean and contains all of the equipment and facilities that you could possibly need. We stayed there with our son and two granddaughters aged 11 and 8, and we all loved the unusual layout, and the garden space. The property is ideally situated to explore all sorts of different attractions in the region. We actually chose it because we wanted to revisit Beamish open air museum, but this time with the grandchildren, and it is not very far away. Ideally you need two days to cover it all, and the ticket is valid for a year. Vindolanda Roman fort and museum is not too far away either and that is a must see if you like history. We are not walkers/cyclists, but this area is very good for those activities too. The two pubs in the village are both good, although we preferred the Baa, and their Pizzas are excellent. The surrounding scenery is outstanding, a real treat if you come from a flat county as we do.

Wonderful cottage.

Well equipped and very clean, it was like a home from home. The location was perfect for us and I already miss the spectacular views from the property. Excellent communication from the owner throughout as well - not intrusive at all, just as and when needed. Overall, a very positive holiday. Thank you.

Beautiful house, very comfortable, well equipped and fantastic setting.

We spent a week there in May.

Lovely cottage, in great location. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds. Very quiet. We enjoyed the walking, visiting Hadrian's Wall, Hexham and City of Durham and eating in local, recommended pubs and restaurants. The owner was extremely helpful finding out for us a great place to park in Sunderland for a concert at the Stadium of Light. It was much appreciated and made a big difference to our visit.

The cottage lacked nothing that we needed.

I stayed with my 2 sons and son in law and we all enjoyed the slight quirkiness of the layout of the interior. We couldn't have wished for better.

We had a wonderful stay at Hepple Hill Cottage.

The property is beautifully situated with stunning views from every window. The cottage is tastefully furnished with very high quality bedding.The kitchen is extremely well appointed , and the addition of an ALEXA and NETFLIX capability on the TV was an added bonus. The sitting room is so comfortable with a very efficient wood burner. Highly recommended and thank you Liz forthe goodies when we arrived!!

Beautiful house with all the comforts we needed, great location to visit some wonderful places such as Alnwick Gardens.

Hepple Cottage is a fabulous home from home with everything you could think of for a relaxing getaway.

The views from the huge kitchen/dining room window are stunning and the upside down layout really emphasises the glorious countryside location. Would highly recommend and would love to go back!

It's a lovely location with a view directly over moorland in one direction and towards the reservoir in the other direction.

There's two pubs nearby. We cycled to the hotel at Blanchland on one of the days. Overall we had a very pleasant stay. Great to be supplied with logs and coal for the whole week. The house was warm and in generally good condition. One minor disappointment was that the bath isn't full size.

In an ide3al location for exploring this area of County Durham, Hepple Hill cottage is a beautiful, very well appointed cottage with fantastic views from every window.

It suits short breaks or longer bigger family stays and we will definitely be coming back for a longer stay next time ourselves

Lovely cottage and very helpful owner would highly recommend.
