We had a lovely few days in this cottage and were impressed with how well equipped it was. A great place to explore Hadrian's Wall and the surrounding area. Would definitely book again.

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage in beautiful surroundings I would recommend this property and would hope to return sometime
Fabulous and comfortable cottage close to Hadrians Wall
The cottage was beautifully decorated with lovely touches. We loved the wood burning stove, and the lovely kitchen. We also enjoyed sitting in the garden, in the evening. We hiked the wall, during the day and enjoyed the cottage to rest and eat. It was the perfect place for the perfect stay.
Peaceful home located between cows and sheep. A fantastic getaway with new furnishings. Great care was taken here! Our family loved being close to things and yet far away from the hustle and bustle in this lovely accommodation
