Mychael &Lisa have thought of everything to make a stay at River Cottage relaxing and enjoyable from the welcome pack for us and the dog until you leave with a goodbye pack. They are on hand but leave you to enjoy your stay. A very relaxing, cosy place to stay.

− We loved everything. Our only feedback would be that the mattress is a but thin/soft. Fine for 2 nights but we would have struggled for longer.

A little corner of comfort. Warm and welcoming.

The property was charming. There was a warm welcome with fresh bread and local butter. The radio was playing quietly and it felt so homely. There was an interesting collection of books, Sky TV. A bottle of wine and wonderful chocolate.

Beautiful Accommodation to Explore Hadrian's Wall.

10.0

Brilliantly placed to explore Hadrian's Wall and Northumberland, River Cottage is a gem. From the thoughtful additional touches to the excellent facilities, we couldn't recommend River Cottage enough. Mychael met us to hand over the cottage and nothing was too much trouble. There were some great touches: plenty of tea, coffee and milk; amazing coffee bean supply; sweet treats and a bottle of wine. This was a welcoming and friendly place to stay with lots of guides to local sites and how to get to them. The accommodation is 2 minutes from the village pub and 5 minutes from the train station, with hourly services to Carlisle and Hexham. We loved our stay and were even given a goodie bag to help on our onwards journey by train for the next part of our holiday. Thank you!
