About this cottage rental

Clayton Cottage is a real home from home, nestled in the tiny village of Howtel in a row of 10 traditional cottages, on a minor country road. All you can see from the front is rolling hills!

We have made sure that you have everything you need for your special self-catering cottage holiday, including wifi, local information leaflets of places to visit, books and maps.

Families are very welcome and there's so much to do and see locally, with castles at both Ford and Etal just 5 minutes away. We're happy for you to bring one well behaved dog.

Three bedrooms upstairs; double, twin and small single. Modern bathroom downstairs with bath and shower and lovely open plan lounge/dining area, with smart TV, real fire, settees, and a great view. Kitchen and utility has all you need and although the cottage has heating, we also make sure you have wood and coal for the real fire stove if desired.

Clayton Cottage is situated right on the edge of the Cheviot Hills, so the views are spectacular and you can walk in any direction straight from the cottage. The local farm is well maintained and quiet - apart from the odd sheep in the fields around us!

If you're looking for a quiet get-away, in a truly rural setting, then look no further.

We also use our little cottage regularly, so it's kept in tip top condition. For your safety we've fitted double hand rails on the stairs, thermostatic shower and smoke and CO2 alarms. (No smoking please.)

There a private and fenced rear garden and off road parking to the rear. BBQ and garden furniture provided.

Find Clayton Cottage on Facebook or Google too for some more photos.

6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2024
Quiet area which was lovely and peaceful. Quite a drive to nearest village Wooler which had a co-op. Pubs there were hit and miss. One shut as coolers broke, one served food which was limited and not nice and other no food. Really wanted to go out and have nice meals. The property was not bad, but description did not say downstairs bathroom nor that the stairs are the steepest ever, with handrails so wasn’t a problem for me as took time but my elderly mum who needs to go toilet in the night really struggled and slept downstairs last 2 nights and we came home a day early as she was frightened of falling. It really was steep! The garden is enclosed but didn’t say it was across a back alley where the cottage residents park and although traffic was minimal, I had to pick my dog up and carry to garden. WiFi was hit and miss. Brought my firestick which I downloaded some films and it was buffering so didn’t watch anything but the free view. Cottage was dated and lots of cobwebs around fireplace and back of tv. But otherwise ok. I would not have chosen this cottage if I was aware of the stairs and garden as it was a constant worry.
