  • "This is a 5star cottage our week was very wet and windy and when we couldn’t get out the cottage was bright and comfortable to stay in ."

    Only minor problem was getting on and off the drive, when cottage opposite parked badly this was a challenge ( might be better if small car ) We ended up parking at front of cottage and using main door so ended good If going to Northumberland then I highly recommend you stay at West Cottage and owner Lizzie is a delight , as was the jam sponge she left for us ….

    We’re so pleased you enjoyed West Farm cottage and were cosy there despite the terrible October weather. Hope you’ll return at some point and have a chance to enjoy the gardens in sunshine! Property Owner

    The generous welcome pack was greatly appreciated and the cottage was immaculately clean and well equipped. We found the location ideal for exploring the coast and historic towns nearby. The enclosed garden was perfect for our Jack Russell who also had a great time. The owners communicated with us before we arrived and were available anytime during the stay if we needed anything. Would definitely stay again!

    Cottage is tastefully decorated and spacious, it has everything you need. Beds are super comfy. Would highly reccommend a stay if you are looking for a peaceful holiday with your 4 legged companions as you have two secure outside areas to sit & chill out in. Great shop in the village serving fabulous fresh rolls and pies etc. Cottage is in the perfect location to explore Northumberland.

  • "This property was ideal for our needs and for our dog."

    The property is all on one level which was great having regard to my wife’s mobility issues. The property is extensive with large rooms and great facilities. The secure front and back gardens were just what was needed to allow our dog to exercise. This is one of the best rentals we have ever taken and we can thoroughly recommend it. The owners live nearby and could not have been more helpful in making our stay a very rewarding experience. We were so impressed that we have booked two additional holidays in the coming months which we are very much looking forward to.

    Thank you so much for your lovely comments; you were perfect first guests! We look forward very much to welcoming you back later in the year. Property Owner
