“A lovely stay again.”

The cottage was spotless and very comfortable with everything we needed. Thank you for the welcome treats

“We have stayed at this cottage several times and whenever we plan a trip to Northumberland it’s the first cottage I look for.”

I wouldn’t describe the house as plush but it is clean, warm and comfortable. The cottage is ideally situated - close to shops and restaurants but with easy access to the hills. The only downside (which has to do with the town and not the house) is that they have changed the way electric car owners access the chargers. For the past few years we have been able to plug in, pay and charge our car. Now you have to use an app. I don’t know what’s going on - even in Alnwick all the chargers require apps. The provider is a company called Ampup and they are a nightmare to use and fail most of the time.

Stuart February 2024

“Very well-appointed accommodation in a great location.”

Would be very happy to return next time we are in the area. Wooler itself has lots of convenient amenities and walks, and is a short drive from the best of Northumberland's beaches and places of interest.

John June 2023

“Very clean & comfortable cottage, well equiped and convenient for shops, resturants etc.”

Having a parking space was good, though a little tricky getting round the corner at first, ok once you have got used to it.Our first visit to Wooler & Northumbria but I am sure it will not be our last..Great place to visit & lovely accomodation + excellent weather made for a memorable holiday.

- John, June 2023
Elaine June 2023

“Very comfortable, lovely welcome basket.”

Kitchen well equipped, beds comfortable and cosy lounge. Only one downside, would have liked the water to be a little hotter, but wonder if regulations state a maximum temperature level as this is the second cottage this year where we have found the water too cool. Perfect location for our week in Northumberland. Even had two fledgling great tits on our windowsill entertaining us. This was our second stay at Peth Head and fully intend to return. Many thanks.

- Elaine, June 2023

The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped and in a good location.

- Sylvia, May 2023
Margaret April 2023

“We booked initially for one week in April but our circumstances changed and we decided to stay for another.”

The cottage is very well equipped, with a spacious, comfortable living room, a kitchen with everything you need, and two very comfortable bedrooms. It really was a home from home, and exactly what we needed while going through the stress of moving to a new house abroad. Wooler itself is so friendly, with great shops, cafes and pubs and the people are so warm, we felt like we could stay forever. Thank you!

- Margaret, April 2023

- Alan, September 2022
Anne August 2022

“Really comfortable, tastefully furnished and well appointed cottage right in the heart of the village.”

Great location for exploring the beautiful area. Some people mentioned the parking as tricky - but we have a Skoda Kodiaq and it was fine - just needs a bit of reversing that is all. Highly recommended.

- Anne, August 2022
Brian June 2022

“Excellent cottage, it was much bigger than expected spotlessly clean, well equipped kitchen very comfortable .”

such a convenient location for visiting this part of England would recommend . lovely welcoming presents many thanks . (We have a large car and had no problems parking at the rear of the property.)

- Brian, June 2022
Elaine May 2022

The location is perfect for exploring many areas of Northumberland. Would definitely return and recommend.

- Elaine, May 2022
Margaret March 2022

“We really hit lucky.”

It was so convenient to the town and was well equipped. The front was a sun trap and the bench was well used. You do need a small car as parking around the back was difficult but the owners had left helpful instructions about reversing out. A lovely stay for early season(March)

- Margaret, March 2022
Colin December 2021

Sheena July 2021

“Peth Head Cottage is absolutely beautiful and was in a perfect location for our walking holiday in the Cheviots.”

The cottage is tastefully decorated. I particularly appreciated the extremely comfortable beds and the fabulous bedding. The log fire was also wonderful, and very efficient, as the weather was quite cold when we were there and we just needed to be cosy in the evenings after a long day walking. As well the High Street is only a stone’s throw away, with lots of useful small shops we were able to get everything we needed locally. There is only one thing that I would have loved to have in the kitchen! A colander! I would recommend this cottage to anyone – this is one of the best cottages I have ever rented.

- Sheena, July 2021
Derek May 2021

“Cottage felt like a home rather than a holiday let.”

Immaculately prepared and scones and jam most welcome! Everything you could need for a comfortable stay — fire easy to light, mattresses really comfortable,duvets luxurious and kitchen short of nothing. Wooler a delightful place and everyone friendly. Enjoyed meals at Milan and Tankerville arms and walks from the cottage door into the hills . Look forward to returning.

- Derek, May 2021
Sue April 2021

“Peaceful, well equipped, cosy cottage.”

Shops, pubs etc all within a short walk. Loads of walking on the doorstep here and the beaches aren’t too far away either.

- Sue, April 2021
Jim October 2020

“We enjoyed our stay in this lovely comfortable and clean cottage which was very convienient for the centre of Wooler for shopping etc.”

Kitchen well equiped and now has a good tin opener. Rather than endure the hassle of accessing and parking in the allocated space next to the cottage we tended to park on the nearby roads when we didnt need to carry too much from the car. Whilst the rooms were warmly heated, we found the unheated stairs and landing corridor rather cool unless internal doors were left open.

The cottage well positioned to centre of Wooler-There are renovating going on in cottage next door but didn’t disturb us or our stay- parking was round back of cottage didn’t inconvenience us in fact easier access for car to cottage-all in all comfortable cottage and highly recommended for stay and driving to other parts of Northumberland

- Gordon Mck, September 2020
Jocelyn August 2020

“I was very unsure of where the cottage was in the village before booking.”

Was very disappointed to find it was in a quite neglected row of houses with the cottage next door being renovated and the back area was like a building site. The lace curtains in the window made the cottage look very run down. They also needed a wash. I took them down and put them back up at the end of the stay. Access to the property was impossible. I caught and broke my wing mirror on the corner of the house whilst trying to leave Path Head as the access is so tight The kitchen was very clean but had a strange smell which did not go even after using air freshener

- Jocelyn, August 2020
Barry August 2020

“Great Cottage as per review.”

Only downside was difficulty parking outside Cottage. This was explained before booking. Other downside was having to put the recycling bin out which was full at the junction to the main road. I am Asthmatic which didn't help and my wife needs to see Chiropractic every month, Apart from the moan and the weather a lovely well equipped cottage.

- Barry, August 2020
Graham August 2020

“The main problem encountered was the parking.”

Whilst the information stated parking at the rear of the property this proved to be quite restrictive in use. Access is through a narrow gap between two buildings and a low wall. I found the best method to gain the rear of the property was to reverse both in and out onto the main road. This made leaving and returing each day a chore.

- Graham, August 2020
Paul March 2020

“The cottage was in a very good position in the small town of Wooler near the pubs and shops.”

It was well equipped, except the washer would not work the hot fill was not connected.The tin opener needs replacing. We enjoyed our stay ,bus service to Berwick and Alnwick from the town every two hours. Anchor pub just across the road was well worth a visit we went to the Quiz night and there were a lot of locals in who made us welcome . The local butchers, bread shops were good and the Friday Night fish and chip van down the hill near the fire station was excellent.
