“Location-Comfort - Info about area all first class looking forward to return”

- Peter, October 2024
David September 2024

“We enjoyed our stay at Rose Cottage.”

It was very well equipped with everything we needed and the bed was so comfortable. We didn’t hear any noise from the main road. This was our first time to Northumberland and it’s not our last as we have booked the cottage for next year. We would highly recommend this cottage

- David, September 2024
Paul September 2024

“The inside of the cottage lived up to our expectations.”

Excellent quality of fixtures and fittings . However compared to the online photographs of the garden, it was very disappointing. It definitely needs upgrading, or the photographs need to show its current condition.

- Paul, September 2024
Phil August 2024

“Lovely clean & well equipped cottage.”

Just booked for a return visit next year.

Very central location for all attractions even though it was on a crossroads you could hear the cars while sat in the garden but in the house it was very quiet

“Fourth stay at Rose Cottage.”

As always, a great place to stay but I felt a bit disappointed about certain aspects of the accommodation. Lovely welcome pack, thank you! Amazing bed and facilities are good. However, the sofa was not very comfortable, mainly due to the foot rest being impossible to raise on one side. The dishwasher was full on arrival. There was no detergent for the washer and there was only one replacement bin liner for the bathroom bin. These issues did not seriously affect the holiday but might affect my inclination to book again. On another issue, I stayed at the cottage in December 2023 and was contacted by the owner to say someone might be coming to look at the garden/outside area with a view to making improvements. I was pleased to hear this as it already looked different from the original photos on the website (now tired and unkempt) and so booked to come back this summer, partly on the back of this. I was excited to see the improvements, however, I was disappointed to see there were none. There is no barbecue (as advertised), the area needs weeding, and the garden furniture needs cleaning. In short, for summer customers, it needs to be improved. Off peak, this cottage is great value for money, and the location is great for exploring the coast and countryside of Northumberland. At full price, in peak season, it could benefit from improvements.

“We had a lovely time, very relaxing it just went by so quickly it seemed we had just arrived and then it was time to pack up and leave.”

I will recommend to my family and friends. Lovely little cottage with lots of lovely walks. Thank you so much for the welcome pack and the bed is huge and really comfortable.

- Julie, July 2024
Graham July 2024

“What a lovely little cottage, wonderfully positioned to visit places like Holy Island, Seahouses, Embleton plus many more including the Northumberland National Park wh8ch was stunning!”

Tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits and sweets were a nice touch too. Beautifully decorated and very cosy, thank-you

- Graham, July 2024
Pamela June 2024

“A charming and comfortable cottage with all required for a stay away from home.”

Well appointed with new equipment and facilities. Immaculately clean which is a credit to the owners/managers. The cottage is well situated for visiting the many attractions in beautiful Northumberland being sited on a main route. My dog and I had a lovely time.

- Pamela, June 2024
Eric April 2024

“All i can say is what an amazing little cottage, as soon as you walked in it was warm and cosy and smelt so clean and was absolutely spotless.”

There was even wine chocolates and coffee waiting for us, everything was to the highest standard right down to the towels. We had such a fab time we have booked again for next year, can't wait to go back. It was central lots of little places, we would highly recommend this lovely cottage.

- Eric, April 2024
Sue April 2024

“Lovely cottage, very well presented and equipped.”

Extremely clean and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the week here. The cottage is on a cross road of 2 main roads and despite triple glazing u can still hear traffic noise although after full days put it didn't interrupt our sleep. Its an ideal location for exploring the surrounding area.

- Sue, April 2024
Yvonne March 2024

“Warm cosy cottage and super comfy bed.”

Very dog friendly with throws provided. We really appreciated the chocolate, coffee and wine! Lovely artistic touches throughout and loads of gushing hot water. The weather was terrible but we were just happy to stay in the homely cottage until the rain subsid

- Yvonne, March 2024
Heidi March 2024

“The cottage is great, the owners have thought of everything to make the stay perfect, including a welcome pack & an Easter egg.”

They couldn’t be any more helpful. A great location for so many walks & places to eat. We have already booked for 2025 which will be our third visit.

- Heidi, March 2024
Linda March 2024

“We had a brilliant stay at rose cottage couple & 4 dogs.”

All lovely & clean with all kitchen appliances and crockery you need, unexpectedly cleaning stuff and loo rolls etc were supplied. The heating went off we contacted owner he was there within 30 minutes and fixed it we couldn’t ask for better than that. Bed really large & comfortable.

- Linda, March 2024
Janice February 2024

Very comfortable. Great location for exploring the countryside. Owner very helpful. Recommended a few places of interest and local pubs to eat in. Which was very good

- Janice, February 2024

“Rose cottage was lovely.”

It was spotless and comfortable. We couldn’t ask for anything more there was everything you could ask for and the little touches were really nice. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

Hazel December 2023

“We loved our stay over Christmas.”

The little cottage is cosy, with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Very central for sightseeing with lovely walks.

- Hazel, December 2023
William November 2023

“We were very pleased with all aspects of Rose Cottage, cosy & comfortable with everything provided.”

Exceptionally dog friendly & safe, neighbours were helpful & friendly whenever we met them, road noise was not intrusive, thick stone walls & glazing a big help. Snow & frost made the area extra beautiful & we enjoyed the Alnwick Castle Winter Garden Light Trail’.. We would certainly return to Rose Cottage. Thank you!

- William, November 2023
Gordon November 2023

“This is the third time we have stayed at Rose Cottage and found it an excellent base for seeing Northumberland.”

The cottage is warm and well equipped and has been a pleasure to stay in over the years.

- Gordon, November 2023
Victoria November 2023

“A lovely cottage very local to attractions.”

It was great for sightseeing with our dog who loved our stay also. The cottage was warm, cosy, well equipped and just a lovely place to stay. The wine and chocolates on arrival were a wonderful touch. I have nothing bad to say about our stay.

- Victoria, November 2023
Denise October 2023

“Excellent place to stay, loved every minute, the only thing that I think may improve the cottage is maybe a little porch over the door so as you went in and out the rain didn't go straight in, we went in oct/Nov so it was a bit wet and windy but what an amazing place to stay.”

- Denise, October 2023
Sarah October 2023

“Upon arrival the owner said they would be returning to fix the broken spring on the settee and install a new door lock to meet safety regulations (the lock was also broken making it hard to shut and open door) but they didn’t bother to.”

There were no facilities to wash dogs outside the house which would have been useful. Overall a good location for exploring area and well presented - however it is on a busy main road.

- Sarah, October 2023
Sandy October 2023

“The cottage was lovely and cozy and we settled in quickly by the log burner, shielding from Storm Babet with a complimentary glass of red wine and a box of chocolates.”

Everywhere was very clean and well-appointed and easily be a location for a longer stay. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was clean with a lovely power shower. The owner was so helpful and could not do enough for us, which made the short break that extra special. We really enjoyed our stay.

- Sandy, October 2023
David September 2023

“A cosy home from home, well equipped and well situated for outings to beaches castles and much more.”

We enjoyed the peace and quiet even though it is on a main road. The fenced in garden area was enjoyed by the dogs and we weee safe in the knowledge they could not escape and even if they had there are gates on and off the property. We had a very enjoyable week and will be sure to return as there is so much more to discover.

- David, September 2023
Dennis July 2023

“NO PRIOR INFORMATION ABOUT SEPTIC TANK.”

NO PRIOR INFORMATION ABOUT LOCATION ON MAIN ROAD. CHAIR AND SOFA IN LOUNGE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. MANY COBWEBS BUT GENERALLY QUITE CLEAN AND TIDY. NOT ENOUGH STORAGE FOR CLOTHES - IE NEEDS A SET OF DRAWERS IN BEDROOM. WELL DECORATED. FACILITIES, EXCLUDING SEPTIC TANK, V GOOD. BED V COMFORTABLE.

- Dennis, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback. I'm not sure why you needed to know about the septic tank before you arrived, as I am not sure how that would have had any impact on your holiday. It's easy enough to find the property on the internet and to see that it sits next to the A697. I shall take into account your comment about the need for extra furniture, but it's a balance between space and facilities in a small property. Kind regards, Ian Property Owner
Paul July 2023

“Faultless would go again and a nice friendly owner very helpful and informative perfect for dogs”

- Paul, July 2023
Kathleen June 2023

“No chest of drawers as shown in the picture, and would have been easier with a coffee table instead of having to put mugs on the floor.”

Despite that it was a very comfortable cottage

- Kathleen, June 2023

Hi, thanks for your feedback. The problem with any small cottage is that one is always making a compromise between providing space and providing facilities. The last time I totted it up over 80% of our guests have dogs with them (a few have brought cats, and we've even had a parrot and an African pygmy hedgehog staying), and that means that we have made the decision to err on the side of space rather than stuff so that owners and their pets can co-exist. The chest of drawers was taking up space, as was the blanket box we used to have, so we decided to give more space rather than less. We don't have the property re-photographed every time we make a change. I'm not sure how these two issues have caused a 25% loss in feedback score, but I guess it's the problem with Sykes using a scoring system within their feedback module - one persons 7 out of 10 will be another persons 5 out of 10. I must continue to remind myself that there's absolutely no objectivity in the system, nor any ability to compare one person's score with someone else's score. Kind regards, Ian Property Owner
Nicole May 2023

“Loved the cottage as we always do but please replace the blind on the door ended up putting a blanket up for privacy other than that fab stay.”

- Nicole, May 2023
Tracy April 2023

“Really lovely cottage in a stunning area.”

Lovely touches of welcome pack. Also, well stocked with essentials, hand soap, washing-up liquid, toilet rolls, washing capsules, kitchen towel. Bowel for dog's water supplied. Hair Dryer, not listed but was supplied. No list, of can and can't do. Yay! Definitely dog friendly. Garden was secure, only downside, the dogs didn't like walking on the gravel.

- Tracy, April 2023
Dot April 2023

“Rose Cottage was a lovely place to spend our week in Northumberland.”

It’s spotlessly clean and very comfortable, especially the massive bed! It’s in a great location for visiting lots of places, we have re-booked for next year!

- Dot, April 2023
Julie April 2023

“Lovely little, well equipped cottage, in a great location for exploring all of the area.”

- Julie, April 2023
Jane April 2023

“An absolute gem of a cottage.”

We felt at home as soon as we walked into this tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean cottage. There was everything that we needed to make our stay as pleasant as possible including the hugest bed ever - which is so comfortable that I slept like a log every night. Rose cottage is situated in a beautiful part of Northumberland with walks from the door for those taking their dogs. We couldn't have chosen a better place to stay and I have to confess to shedding a tear or two on leaving this wonderful place.

- Jane, April 2023
Michael March 2023

“Been several times always enjoyed the stay”

- Michael, March 2023
Heidi March 2023

“The perfect getaway with our 3 dogs, our break started with a wonderful welcome pack.”

The house itself was spotless and equipped with everything we needed, modern, comfortable and warm. It had a secure garden for the dogs and a pleasing outlook. All this topped off by only a short drive to a number of stunning walks and great restaurants. We look forward to returning.

- Heidi, March 2023
Karen March 2023

“Cottage had everything you could want and need.”

The bed was so comfortable and the shower was hot and powerful not just the usual trickle.Very dog friendly and flooring etc. was ideal for muddy paws.

- Karen, March 2023
Anita February 2023

“Excellent holiday accommodation.”

The cottage is cosy, comfortable, clean, well maintained, well equipped, amazing bed, dog friendly and in a perfect location for exploring the surrounding area. It is so peaceful of an evening, with amazing starry skies. The mornings bring the sounds of the birds. The lounge window looking out to the cows is lovely too. There really isn’t anything not to like. We met the owner on arrival as we were a little early, so 4pm really is the check in time! Highly recommend!

- Anita, February 2023
Jonathan January 2023

“A well presented cosy well equipped cottage, decorated and furnished to a high standard.”

Locatedn a junction but no traffic noise with triple glazed units. Enclosed rear garden. Would definitely recommend.

- Jonathan, January 2023
Ian December 2022

“Fantastic week away, Rose cottage was amazing, warm comfortable and cleanas I was Christmas they decorated the cottage and the welcome pack was out of this world.”

Ideally situated for us to explore Northumberland. One thing I'd like to add, but I didn't affect our stay in any way, is the fact there was no mention of the property being so close to a main road in the sykes cottages page, maybe this is something that could be rectified. All in all I would recommend this cottage to everyone

- Ian, December 2022
Louise December 2022

“I had a wonderful time.”

The cottage was warm and welcoming on arrival, all trimmed up with festive decorations and a welcome pack including coffee, wine and chocolates. There was useful information about places to visit and everything that I needed in terms of facilities etc. Thank you!

- Louise, December 2022
Michael December 2022

“What a wonderful stay in an AMAZING location.”

Everything was taken care of from fantastic gifts on arrival to have replacement glass brought to us through the snow for the wood burning stove. The owners could not done more for us. The property was clean tidy and well kept. We will be back and thank you so much.

- Michael, December 2022
Wendy November 2022

“We've just had a fantastic week in this cosy cottage.”

Great location and landlord very helpful and gave some great recommendations to visit.

- Wendy, November 2022
Leslie October 2022

“Cosy, comfy warm and inviting.”

Cattle,sheep and goats as neighbours and best of all NO street lights. Absolute little gem of a cottage. Thanyou Rose Cottage our best stay yet x

- Leslie, October 2022
Kevin October 2022

“Very enjoyable, comfortable, relaxing stay.”

Facilities, cleanliness and comfort very good. Great location for exploring Coast and National Park.

- Kevin, October 2022
Jack September 2022

“We loved the cottage, it was well appointed and very cosy.”

We appreciated the triple glazing due to the road being quite busy. It worked well for us. The only down side was there was no chest of drawers in the bedroom and a coffee table would have been good in the sitting room.

- Jack, September 2022
Suzanne August 2022

“Very happy with everything, cottage was immaculately clean, had everything we needed and massive, comfortable bed.”

The cottage is ideally situated between Alnwick and Rothbury, great for visiting Cragside. Enclosed garden with four foot fence, great for our small dog. Only one (very small) consideration for improvement: every other cottage that we have stayed at provided a pint of milk on arrival. Not a massive gripe (the wine was very much appreciated) but we specifically didn't bring a bottle of milk as it's always been provided before.

- Suzanne, August 2022
Diane August 2022

“A lovely well-appointed property situated perfectly for exploring the area.”

It made a change to stay at a pets-welcome property that wasn't scruffy or tired. The attention to detail is lovely. We knew it was on a main junction from both the description and the map, so don't understand why anyone would say the proximity to the road was unexpected. Also, the windows are triple-glazed. Parking was a little higgeldy piggeldy when others were coming in or out at the same time, but the designated parking bay is clear and secure, plus the gate provided extra safety for the dog with the road. Our only disappointment was the shower/bath. There are no grab rails for safety, the bath is very deep for stepping in and out of, and running a bath is a challenge as the shower screen and door are in the way. We had to prop the door open and then couldn't reach the taps without stepping into the bath. Also, no grab rails on the bath either so a struggle to get up. But we had a lovely, quiet stay, and would recommend to others with pets. (We took a cat and a dog.)

- Diane, August 2022
Liz July 2022

“Excellent property but the proximity to a noisy road was not made clear”

- Liz, July 2022
Clare April 2022

“We had a lovely stay at Rose Cottage.”

Despite being only a one bedroom property there was ample space for us and our 4 dogs. The cottage was very nicely furnished, very clean, very comfortable and a very generous welcome package greeted us, as well as a generous amount of loo rolls and wood for the stove. The cottage was well located allow us to explore inland as well as heading to numerous beaches. We would definitely stay again.

- Clare, April 2022
Ian March 2022

“One of the best properties I have ever stayed in.”

Absolutely fabulous in every way. Extremely nice owners who will do anything to help. Beautiful location with easy access to Rothbury and Alnwick. I would highly recommend Rose Cottage.

- Ian, March 2022
Barbara February 2022

“The cottage was very cosy, immaculate and well appointed.”

Loved the log burner and super king bed which was very comfy. Also loved having a bath to luxuriate after long walks! It was well placed to explore the area.

- Barbara, February 2022
Stephen February 2022

“Rose cottage is well situated to explore the beautiful beaches and history that Northumberland offers.”

The cottage is well equipped for all your needs, it is clean, tidy and very comfortable and has the added bonus of a log fire when required. Plenty of dog walks within a few minutes of the cottage. The owner Ian, is extremely pleasant and has a wealth of knowledge for places of interest. My wife and me and two dogs enjoyed an excellent stay.

- Stephen, February 2022
Nancy February 2022

“Everything was as advertised absolutely spot on And we couldn’t have had a better experience even the weather cooperated.”

The welcome package was a lovely treat thanks.

- Nancy, February 2022
David January 2022

“If we could give 6 stars we would!”

What a fantastic , beautiful, well equipped cottage. High end finishes throughout. A massive comfy bed with lovely linen and big fluffy towels. When we arrived the power was off due to a storm. The owners could not do enough for us from offering to pay for a meal at a local pub and move us to another house. The neighbours were so lovely and came round offering help and candles! Fortunately the power came back on quickly and we didn’t have to move. The cottage was spotlessly clean and no hint of any dog smells. The garden was really secure for the dogs. Ideally situated for lots of local beaches, Alnwick very close and if you have a National Trust card Cragside house is only 3 miles from the house. Lots of local dog walks nearby. The road was no issue at all and we slept soundly every night and it’s so dark you can see all the stars. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise too!. We have had a fantastic week away and will definitely return.

- David, January 2022
Glenn January 2022

“Fantastic few days to relax plenty things close by to to keep yourself occupied with plenty information to hand in cottage, as well as good selection of DVDS if bored.”

- Glenn, January 2022

- Christine, November 2021
Janice October 2021

“What a beautiful cottage Rose cottage is.”

. so comfortable and clean . The owners have thought of everything... so convenient for walks, our doggies loved Thrunton woods and the beaches too . Thank you so much for the welcome pack . We have booked again for next year

- Janice, October 2021
Brian October 2021

“Small but totally sufficient for two!”

- Brian, October 2021
Jacqui September 2021

“The cottage was in a quiet location and ideally situated for exploring.”

It was comfortable, clean & well equipped. Perfect for 2 adults & 3 dogs. Would definitely recommend and would go back again.

- Jacqui, September 2021
Lesley August 2021

“Super comfortable house spotlessly clean, lovely setting.”

.. only negative it is such a busy road to cross, an to get out of.

- Lesley, August 2021
Trevor August 2021

“Very nice cottage, easy access to central Northumberland, friendly owner.”

Ideal for dog walking. We had too take our dog to the vets while there and the care from Cheviot Vets was excellent. The two vets a Ruth and Lizzie was outstanding, and Ben made a full recovery. No issues. Thank you, Trevor Ayre

- Trevor, August 2021
Jill July 2021

“The cottage was beautiful and in a quiet place, there was a bit of road noise but this didn’t bother us.”

The bed was massive and pillows perfect, best nights sleep for ages, owners left a lovely welcome package. Overall a lovely relaxing stay and would stay again!

- Jill, July 2021
Rosemary July 2021

“Good location for Cragside (National Trust) and Alnwick and within an hour’s drive of the coast.”

We had a wonderful boat trip to see seals and seabirds on the Farne Islands. The owners thoughtfully provided information about local walks, the tides for Holy Island, and a lovely welcome pack including a parking disc! The bed is huge and comfy but the chest of drawers in the photo had been removed and we missed it! The shower was efficient, and we appreciated the non- slip mat provided but the washbasin is slow to empty. The one thing we really missed was a teapot!

- Rosemary, July 2021
Ruth June 2021

“There’s everything you need here for a lovely holiday.”

We were there for two weeks, and were supplied with fresh bedding, towels, bath mat, and tea towels after our first week. The previous comments about the busy road were, in my opinion, not called for. The cottage has triple glazing and this made the road very quiet. The cottage was as advertised, and very well kept, and clean. The welcome pack was above and beyond what we have normally received. There was milk, sugar, coffee, chocolates, and wine. If I had to be picky I would say that the sofa was not overly comfortable, but that would be the only tiny niggle to the two week stay, and I would be more than happy to stay again.

- Ruth, June 2021
Sheree June 2021

“Our first time in the area, Rose cottage was perfectly located for exploring both woods and the fantastic beaches.”

The cottage had everything we needed. The bedroom is very spacious with a comfy bed It has good wifi. The garden was a little smaller than looks on photos, it is enclosed so was fine for my 4 dogs. Lots of dog friendly places to eat nearby. Would highly recommend as would my dogs , we have already booked again for next year.

- Sheree, June 2021
Pamela May 2021

“Delightful cottage,everything and more you could need,would absolutely recommend 100%.”

- Pamela, May 2021
Gordon April 2021

“Rose Cottage was perfectly situated for us to explore the beautiful region of Northumberland.”

The cottage had been carefully prepared for our stay and felt clean and fresh on our arrival. We had everything we needed for our week and was the ideal place to come home to in the evening. The weather helped of course with sunshine every day. We definitely would like to return to Rose Cottage.

- Gordon, April 2021
Maria October 2020

“Rose cottage is beautiful, very stylish and well equipped.”

The location is perfect - a crossroads to Northumberland - making it easy to access tourist attractions such as Cragside, Alnwick Castle, Holy Island, Bamburgh Castle and also miles of wonderful sandy beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Northumberland and will definitely be back next year! Pets are also very welcome, our two pooches had a wagtastic holiday too!

- Maria, October 2020
Nicola September 2020

“Beautiful little cottage with all home comforts.”

Well set out with a lovely little garden. Good position for exploring all the delights of Northumberland. The owner was very helpful, telephoning before arrival to provide us with all the information we needed including local walks and good places to visit. Our first visit to Rose Cottage and Northumberland but not our last!!

- Nicola, September 2020
Simon September 2020

“Rose Cottage is a delightful, comfortable and well equipped cottage, ideally situated for touring around the Northumberland coast and countryside.”

Lovely dog friendly beaches and excellent eateries in the area. The only drawback as far as we were concerned is the close proximity to an extremely busy road.

- Simon, September 2020
Mark August 2020

“Great cottage everything you need for a week in Northumberland, we got a phone call from the owner (Ian) the week before we came to explain a few things which was really helpful.”

The welcome pack was a nice touch, we hope to visit again in the future.

- Mark, August 2020
Christine July 2020

“Rose Cottage is a lovely, clean , cosy cottage.”

However, light sleepers need to be aware that the cottage is at a busy crossroads and that heavy traffic continues all day and at times through the night. This is not mentioned in the details of the cottage.

- Christine, July 2020
Sheena March 2020

“Lovely cosy cottage with a super kingsized bed!”

Great welcolme pack. Excellent location near to forests and beaches. Slight downside -Traffic outside heavy and noisey and difficult to walk the dogs without going in a car first.

- Sheena, March 2020
Kal-el February 2020

“The cottage was clean and fresh upon entering.”

The owners use of the space is well thought out. The new additions of the rug and new sofa helped keep the room vibrant and homely. A lovely welcome pack and a good stock of fire fuel added to this already beautiful cottage. Being so close to both Rothbury and Alnwick is useful for explorers and shopping, so to is the nearby Thrunton Woods. The road can be busy but with such noise cancelling windows you don’t notice, a great feature even when contending with the big log carrying wagons. We have been here 3 times and we will be back 3+ more!! The cottage, the area and the locals all combine to make this an ideal holiday accommodation.

- Kal-el, February 2020
Margaret November 2019

“A lovely welcome to a warm cosy christmas decor cottage in the first week of december with a welcome gift box of goodies after a long travel on a cold winters night .”

our 4 dogs loved the walks in the area and settled well with in the cottage on there own beds. The wonderful super king size bed was great, even think of buying one !!. Thank you will book again.

- Margaret, November 2019
Pauline November 2019

“We had a fantastic time at Rose cottage and will be returning although it will be in the summer next time !”

Ian was there to great and run through some things we needed to know great host ,lovely welcome pack,great bed .

- Pauline, November 2019
Matthew November 2019

“We stayed at Rose Cottage in November (apologies for the late review) and had a fantastic time.”

Our host was away on a trip at the time of our stay but made sure we knew he was available if ever we needed anything and was truly one of the most accommodating hosts we’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. The cottage itself has everything you need for a brilliant stay, though we did spend a lot of time exploring the lovely areas surrounding it. There’s some beautiful history just on your doorstep and some fantastic wanders to be had. We especially loved the castle ruins just a short stroll away from the cottage. Unfortunately our time at the cottage was cut short due to a emergency at home but we can’t wait to return, this time hopefully with our pup in tow who I know will love exploring with us! ~ Overall a wonderful experience made even more pleasant by an extremely accommodating owner. Thank you! ~

- Matthew, November 2019
Annmarie October 2019

“Absolutely beautiful cottage in a wonderful place.”

The owner was really helpful giving lots of information about walks near the cottage. We will definitely book again , this has been our favourite cottage by far .

- Annmarie, October 2019
John September 2019

“This cottage is exceptional, it’s very well kept and very well laid out, a great place to unwind.”

It is located centrally so you can travel to all the great beaches and attractions. We had our 3 dogs with us , and they were very safe in the totally enclosed garden area to the front. The surrounding area was breathtaking and I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage whatsoever.

- John, September 2019
Gilly September 2019

“The cottage was absolutely amazing.”

Having doggies you can never be sure of the quality of the accommodation but this cottage was so wonderfully clean and well presented that I would have no hesitation in recommended this as a holiday venue. The owner was so helpful and knowledgeable about the surrounding areas, giving us wonderful advice and ideas. The welcome basket was lovely and the goat next door made us smile every day.

- Gilly, September 2019
Tina September 2019

“We were so happy with this cottage.”

100% so nice for making us feel welcome. We will definitely going to book cottage again. Ideal for anyone that loves walking. .

- Tina, September 2019
Stephen August 2019

“Rose Cottage was a beautiful place to stay set in stunning scenery.”

We had an outstanding holiday and we would highly recommend a stay there.

- Stephen, August 2019
Jean July 2019

“The cottage was very well appointed with a gigantic bed.”

..you could sleep a family of four in it.There was plenty of crockery and utensils which made cooking just like being at home. The beaches near by were mostly dog friendly which was great for our 3 spaniels. They loved swimming and running along the coast.Plenty of lovely walks should we wish to not go water wise. Lovely holiday with temperatures of 20 and over every day which really helped.

“Rose cottage has definitely been by far, the best holiday property we have stayed at.”

The enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs, and sitting out. The cottage itself was SO comfortable, both the sitting room and the bed. There was a fab welcome gift, as well as some free range fresh eggs, and two Easter eggs (didn’t have to share this year). The neighbors very helpful pointing us in the right direction for dog walking. Would recommend and would go back.

“Absolutely fantastic little cottage in a great location!”

Don't let the size put you off from booking - this place has been so well planned and thought out it has everything you need! It was perfect for us and our 4 dogs. The kitchen has all you need for cooking decent meals and plenty of room to prepare - we had a full cooked roast with ease! The sitting area is cosy and the log burner is a lovely treat after long days out walking and exploring. Upstairs the master bed is huge and extremely comfy within a lovely room and great bathroom too. Triple glazing throughout which helped with being next to the road, however we hardly noticed any traffic anyway. A gravel fenced garden was perfect for the dogs to mooch about in and allocated parking for two cars was convenient too. The owners went above and beyond our expectations to make us feel welcome and ensure we had a good stay. The welcome pack and ready supply of fuel for the fire was outstanding. Recommendations of local attractions and places to walk the dogs were given and we tried them all! We would 100% recommend Rose Cottage and will certainly be booking again! Thank you so much for making our holiday one to remember!

“The owner was extremely helpful and phoned a few days before to check that we were still looking forward to going to Northumberland.”

He emailed details of events in the area to us and made sure that we had his contact details In case we needed him for anything. He said it would be no trouble if we did contact him but as it happened we had no need to. Rose Cottage was the cleanest cottage that we have ever rented. Many thanks to Ian the owner.

- Sandra, August 2018

Sarah March 2018

“Rose Cottage was a fabulous and extremely cosy cottage for a stay exploring Northumberland.”

The location is perfect for exploring the moors, coast and local towns. The cottage was beautifully furnished, very comfortable and felt quite extravagant. The fire was perfect for the winter evenings, although we did have to turn off the heating in order to have the fire on, as the little cottage became like a sauna! There were excellent facilities provided in the kitchen, with a wonderful welcome pack of chocolates, milk, wine, fresh eggs from the owners chickens and some lovely coffee. We took our two dogs with us, and the little enclosed garden was perfect for them to snoof about in. The owners popped by the day we arrived to, very kindly, bring us some more firewood and coal, and recommended lots of dog friendly places to visit, and showed us how to use the heating. They were extremely friendly and accommodating. If I had to say something slightly negative, it would be the busy A road adjacent to the cottage was rather noisy in the mornings and the lorries rushing past woke us up - but it was nice to be up early and get out and do things! I would definitely return to Rose, and have already recommended the cottage to family and friends! Thank you for a lovely stay.

- Sarah, March 2018
Eileen February 2018

“Lovely little cottage had everything we needed for a lovely break.”

The garden area was great for the dogs to chill out as well. Whilst the proximity to the busy road is a slight drawback it is also makes it very easy to access the local facilities. Would definitely book again
