Lisa

This cottage is perfectly located for a quiet "get away from it all" holiday. The views from the cottage are stunning. The location is perfect for walks straight from the door or a short drive further into the Cheviots. The coast is only 25 mins away. Mitch and Janet live nearby and were immediately available for the glitches we had due to Storm Amy and a wealth of knowledge in relation to the area. The cottage is well equipped, there wasn't anything we didn't need, and is warm and cosy. Wooler is only a five minute drive away with a decent range of shops to top up with supplies. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the cottage to anyone.

Craig

We had an extremely relaxing and enjoyable week. The cottage is so homely, I donâ??t think the photos do it justice, a perfect place to come back to after a day enjoying the spectacular surroundings. We were lucky enough to have some clear nights while staying and witnessed some of the best night Skys of our lives while sat in the cottages back garden. We started making plans of when we could stay again before we had even checked out.

Diane

The location of the Cottage was perfect for us, love the peace and quiet and lovely to see Hares, Pheasants, Voles, Barn Owl, House Martin's, plus the Sheep and Cows right at the doorstep. Clean, well equipped, warm, and cosy, what more could we ask for. Very memorable week.

Alex

What really makes this cottage is its location in a peaceful valley surrounded by fields of sheep and cows and picturesque hillsides all round. There are hares in the field behind the property and it's just a lovely ambience. The cottage is compact and furnished in a tasteful if rustic style. The kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances (but do note there's no dishwasher). Not luxurious but a great place to get away from it all!

Charles

Fabulous getaway retreat for a week - quiet, peaceful beautiful cottage. Location perfect for exploring all of Northumberland.

Darran

Lovely cottage in a very rural location. Great base for exploring the national park and only 30 minutes to the coast.

Adele

We had a comfortable week, with everything you could need provided. We appreciated the honey and biscuit welcome. Our hosts kindly changed our towels in the middle of our fortnight stay. Of course the best part has to be the wonderful views over the hills, and watching the barn owl flying low over the meadow. A very relaxing holiday.

Clive

A lovely comfortable cottage with everything we needed. The best bit was the location and the views, they made our stay so relaxing!

Elizabeth

The cottage was in a lovely location and was well kept. The kitchen and bathroom was lovely and modern. Loved sitting in the garden looking at ghe wild life in the field.

Hollie

My partner, dog and I had a fabulous stay at Railway Cottage - perfect for walkers and people looking to get away from it all. Beautiful surroundings with walks from your door. We loved sitting in the garden watching the lambs play in the field in front of us and listening to the birdsong. Cottage is well equipped, clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend!

Della

This cottage is set in the most beautiful location, with lovely walks right on the doorstep. It is also within short driving distance of many of Northumberlandâ??s attractions.It is well equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay including logs for the fire. We were easily able to cook anything we wanted. Local villagers were very friendly also. We have recommended to friends and hope to return in the future.

Ashlie

Absolutely stunning cottage in a beautiful location, cottage fully equipped, the emergency dog supplies is genius! Already cannot wait to return in the future.

Denise

Railway cottage is a very cozy cottage in a stunning location for walks etc. nature at its best. The beds were very comfortable . The only thing we could pick at is it would have been nice to have the basics left on arrival like milk, bread.

Iain

This a fabulous warm and comfortable cottage in an ideal location for walkers cyclists and stargazers looking for dark skies. Loads of walks set up to find on the OS app. Lots of wildlife and quiet roads . A very peaceful location .

Maria

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful cottage. It had everything you would need, & all kitchen equipment was of a high standard. Loved waking up from a very comfy bed, opening the curtains to a beautiful view with sheep grazing. We had lovely walks from the doorstep, even wore our spaniel out! We highly recommend this cottage, it was so peaceful with beauty all round.

Lynn

We had an excellent stay at Railway Cottage Retreat. The cottage is very well equipped and very clean and comfortable. Ideal location as within easy reach of all the major tourist sites such as Bamburgh Castle, Lindisfarne & Alnwick Castle. Good local facilities in Wooler and the superb Ad Gefrin Distillery. 2-Bedroom Cottage in Kirknewton definitely felt like a home away from home. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Max

Well equipped, clean and comfortable cottage in a great location.
