"Well-equipped, clean and comfortable, The Bothy made a delightful base for a long weekend, for ourselves and small dog."
The tasteful decor reflects the degree of care and thought put into the visitor's experience. We also particularly enjoyed the quietness of the site and privacy of the verandah. Would certainly recommend.

"A fantastic place with everything clean and comfortable."
The views are fabulous and the wildlife garden superb. Friendly and helpful owners who respect one’s privacy. I had one query over the key box which was quickly and kindly resolved.
Only tiny bit of feedback from me is that a shower mat would’ve been appreciated as the shower floor is very slippery (obviously ☺️) and as the controls are outside I nearly slipped over when stepping out to alter the temperature!
The Bothy is a gem and I have sent pictures and recommendations to friends.

Although only a 1-bed property, The Bothy has everything you need! It’s been very carefully thought out and was beautifully presented, with high quality decor. We will miss the gorgeous sunrises and the lovely ducks! 100% recommended.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bothy."
The accommodation was beautifully furnished, very comfortable, clean and in the most beautiful of settings with lots of wildlife close by.
The hosts left a lovely 'welcome pack' and had really thought about everything their guests would need during their stay. The scenery around the Bothy is breathtaking and offers some great local walks. Lots to do and see close by, Corbridge, Hadrian's wall, Hexham Abbey. This all results in a perfect little holiday.

"Absolutely perfect, some nice little touches by the owners which I won’t mention as don’t want to spoil for future guests."
My only slight criticism would be, it would be lovely to have a jacuzzi on the decking to take I the views and night sky.
But can’t have everything can you, I will definitely come back.

Has everything you need under 1 roof, the owners have thought of everything. Beautifully presented, decorated and cosy.
Nice welcome pack which included wine and items from a bakery one being gluten free which was ideal for my husband.
The log fire was very comforting of an evening when you had been out exploring all day in the cold.
Ideally located as you could drive up to Northumberland national park , down to the North pennines or East to Newcastle.
We will surely return in the future x

"Had a very relaxing and peaceful stay at the Bothy."
The property is very well equipped and comfortable for 2 people with a dog. The owners live in the adjacent Riding Hills farm so are on hand should you need them. The welcome pack was very good, one of the best we've had. Plenty of walks from the doorstep and the village of Riding Mill, which has a good pub and cafe/deli is about a 40 minute walk. Corbridge is a similar distance in the other direction. There is also a regular bus service from the main road (about 5 minutes walk) between Newcastle and Hexham. We really enjoyed it and will definitely book again for next year

The Bothy was very comfortable, beautifully furnished and decorated. The welcome box was lovely, the owners, Simon & Karen were helpful but not intrusive. It’s the only cottage we’ve stayed at for 2 weeks where the bedding and towels were changed half way through! A dlelightful place. Cats, ducks, hares, an owl and bats, what more could you ask for, I’m sure we’ll be back. Thanks, Denise, John & Poppy the cat! x

"We stayed at The Bothy for a week in February."
On arrival the view when you drive up the hill are amazing. The cottage is set amongst beautiful countryside at the edge of a small cluster of farm and barn conversions and there is a duck pond nearby. The space itself is beautiful and every item in the cottage has been carefully curated by the owners. It was spotlessly clean. The welcome pack was outstanding. All facilities were in good order with a lovely shower. The bed was super comfy and the quietness of the surrounding area ensured a great nights sleep. Our dog enjoyed sitting out on the deck and going for walks in the countryside. There are lots of lovely pubs nearby and great restaurants to try out.

"We enjoyed our stay at the Bothy."
Facilities were excellent and the lodge was placed in a very private, picturesque setting, approximately 2 miles from Corbridge. My only very slight criticism was that the previous renters had had a dog who they must have allowed to sit/sleep on the settee. I could smell 'dog'. This would not stop us from returning to the Bothy.
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay at the Bothy and you were great guests. We do ask that pets are not allowed on the settee and I will ask the Cleaners to pay particular attention to this in the future, very best wishes Karen
