  • "This is an excellent property which is well presented and has been tastefully refurbished."

    The cottage is in a quiet location yet only minutes from the town centre with its many coffee shops and first class restaurants. A true gem.

  • "The property is very well positioned in Morpeth."

    You can easily walk to the centre. The property was clean, spacious and the beds were comfortable. We parked easily a short distance from the property. It is difficult to park by the property due to the narrow streets.

  • "A lovely terraced house which was very comfortable & had every facility we needed."

    It had a great location and enabled us to access the fabulous county of Northumberland. We were welcomed with a few essentials, a thoughtful gesture. There was also a very useful information folder. The only slight issue was parking but we had no problems once we found a space. Overall we would recommend this house to anyone wanting to holiday in Northumberland.

    Thank you for your lovely comments and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Many thanks again Property Owner
