"The nearest amenities are some distance away, so for people who may be used to just nipping out to the shop for something, you need to plan. But the remoteness of the location suited us"

We regularly visit Northumberland and love the area. Birch cottage being just south of Carter Bar was ideal for us as we also visited relatives in the Scottish Borders. This is an excellent location for visiting this Beautiful rural area , the cottage had all the amenities we required and the local bird life was lovely to see. The owners were friendly and welcoming. We will happily rebook if available when we plan our trips next year .

Our family really enjoyed staying here.We arrived late to the scent of honeysuckle and roses and we were surrounded by wildlife and beautiful dark skies.The cottages are charming historic farm workers cottages. They’re lovely and have everything needed. A nice comfortable sitting room for socialising.The owners are very friendly. Be prepared to offer a cup of tea and have a nice chat.There’s a lovely roadside cafe a few miles south. Northumberland itself is a lovely place. Yes they’re a little rustic and there are a few little faults like 1 radiator that needs to stay on.So if you are expecting pristine perfection then spend an absolute fortune on a city hotel. If you’re happy with rural and lovely then you should have a nice time

Lovely cosy cottage, very warm and great to have coal fire burning when we arrived - thank you! Only feedback is could have done with a few more plates and bowls and perhaps a couple of firelighters.

Great location with fantastic views! The cottage was great, very clean and very comfy. The fire is great for winter nights. It’s a little bit of a trek to any civilisation or shops, which was absolutely fine for us. The wildlife cameras linked to the tv and a great addition, and kept the kids entertained and engaged. Would you stay again? Absolutely, yes. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
