We stayed at the Carriage House for a week last summer. It was perfect in every way, a real home from home. Lots of lovely walks. Breathtakingly beautiful beaches nearby, all surprisingly deserted. We went on a boat trip to the Farne Islands where we saw beautiful puffins.Nearby Alnwick was great for afternoon tea and pottering about. Fantastic base for... More

Stayed at Doxford House for t a three night family break. WOW what a great time we had. There is nothing you need to take , everything is there. We have stayed in Swinney cottage before and we will be back, Any of these properties will NOT disappoint More

We booked Doxford House, Carriage House and Coach House for friends and family for my 40th Birthday celebrations in the first week in October this year. It was the best birthday ever! Some of us have stayed previously in 2008 when the cottages first opened and I was sure they would have lost some of their "wow factor", but they... More

We stayed in Wellwood at the end of September. This was our first visit to Doxford and we'll defo be back! Everything was superb and everything you needed was there. Very tastefully decorated and furnished and despite being 3 years old, they look brand new. Sky TV and free WiFi a bonus. Plenty of space out front for kids to... More

We stayed in Fox Cover in August, a cottage for two. It was very well appointed and so spacious. The bedroom and bathroom were large and luxurious. We watched woodpeckers and many other birds every day on the bird feeder from our lounge. We had hoped to see red squirrels, but were disappointed on that score. The meals that can... More

We stayed in Doxford House for a family gathering in September 2011 and it was a wonderful experience. We've rented many homes and Doxford Cottages was our best so far. The house is beautifully appointed and with four bedrooms and bathrooms there was comfortable space for everyone. They have paid attention to the details and the home had everything you... More

We stayed at Swinney cottage in September, the accommodation was first class, lovely furnishings and decoration, the website looks good but the reality was better. We ordered meals from Fiona Burn and these were very good, the touches like the welcome pack are very nice and even a pint of milk waiting in the fridge. Sue and John were available... More

We have now stayed twice for short breaks in the winter at Shellrig and both times have been impressed with the quality of these cottages. They are well appointed and comfortable and the log burner is great on a cold night. The hosts are very efficient before and during your stay and having arrived to a faulty kettle, this was... More

We have just returned from an amazing de-stressing break in Fox Cover. This sleeps two, and yet has all the facillities you might expect for larger properties, and it is generously spaced too. The staff were helpful and friendly but unobtrusive. We like to have many of our home comforts so appreciated Sky t.v. and WiFi internet access in the... More
