  Well kitted out place with great selection of books and art supplies. View was superb and main room spacious. Only challenge was the layout. You enter through the kitchen with… read more adjacent bathroom, then walk downstairs through the bunkroom to get to the main accommodation. This was slightly challenging creeping through a dark bedroom with stairs and sleeping children to get to the bathroom at night. And also transporting food to and from the dining area. Highly recommended Otherwise.

  Well – what can I say?! LOVE THIS PLACE.
Absolutely gorgeous home from home in a stunning location.
Basic, low key, simple but really, really lovely. An annex… read more that’s part of the original house, attached to the family’s home.
Small and compact, just about ok for our family of 4 (2 primary school aged children)
We enjoyed it – but – it is important to know that you will be “living on top of eachother” when there (a bit) for your stay. If you don’t mind this – this is great. We had amazing weather when there so that helped with being able to use the outside space as a “living space” as well as the 1 room available.
The property is on a substantial piece of land that looks over a beautiful valley. We roamed the wonderful paths in the garden and spend a lot of time in the art shed and on the patio.
Rothbury is a lovely village within a safe to walk mile.
Would recommend a trip to Cragside, the coastal towns and just roaming around the local area! There are a lot of very simple but wonderful things to do.
Hosts are wonderful people and were more than happy to help and advise on the area.
There were some issues with the wi-fi, but hosts did everything they could to fix the issue (and it more or less was).
Highly recommend for a small family or couple who like a bit of peace and quiet, chilling, going on adventures and enjoying a beautiful area.
Thank you so much.

  Lovely place for a weekend away, and nothing better than waking up to the view!
