Had a lovely break at Loanview in Wark Northumberland Very quaint cottage with everything you needed to have an enjoyable time The beds were comfortable shower although it looked small and not very powerful was exactly the opposite with good pressure and very hot water We had a slight issue with the oven door but an engineer was called out to rectify the problem so we used the air fryer in the meantime Special shout out to Jim (owner) who literally kept us going with logs for the log ...

Had a lovely break at Loanview in Wark Northumberland Very quaint cottage with everything you needed to have an enjoyable time The beds were comfortable shower although it looked small and not very powerful was exactly the opposite with good pressure and very hot water We had a slight issue with the oven door but an engineer was called out to rectify the problem so we used the air fryer in the meantime Special shout out to Jim (owner) who literally kept us going with logs for the log burner from his huge stocks of logs Our two dogs although barky barky soon made friends with Jim and were more than happy when he popped down The log burner was great for the cooler afternoon’s and evening’s Nice tv with Prime and Netflix ( you need your own account though) Nice secure garden and paddock for the dogs All in all nothing really not to like Would we stay again A definite yes from us Thanks Pam and Jim

- David, November 2025

Thank you David for your welcome review. We were so pleased you enjoyed the cottage and your sweet little dogs liked the garden and paddock. Jim is usually around so I’m glad he as able to help with the wood and you were nice and warm with the wood burning stove. The cooker with the wonky oven door has gone and a new cooker is in its place. We hope you have a very merry Christmas and a Healthy New year. Jim & Pamela Property Owner

“Just what we needed, but we would have loved it anyway.”

The owners were so friendly and helpful in many ways. Dog-friendly is correct in the description we read beforehand We would love to come again to this area next year. Thank you so much C andS and Vinca the dog

- Anthony, October 2025

Thank you so much for your kind review and that the cottage was warm, comfortable and your gorgeous Vinca enjoyed the paddock and garden. It is a a beautiful area and there is so many places to visit. You were perfect guests and we would love to see you all again. Hope your journey home was good and you had a great weekend with your son. Pamela &Jim It was very kind of you to return the book but there was no need. Guests often take one when they haven’t finished it, where others leave the one they brought. P&J Property Owner

“We had a wonderful time at Loan view.”

The cottage is in a great location for trips/walks out. We had 2 miniature dachshunds with us and the garden and paddock were a perfect playground for them. The cottage is very old and interesting. It was very warm with its thick walls and massive log burner( loads of free wood provided) I had the burner running all the time as this partially runs the CH. brilliant fun for me. Kitchen was well utensilised, with a big air fryer and dishwasher. Having stayed at several cottage retreats over the years this ranks up there with the best. The owners are really nice and make sure you enjoy your time. Thank you for the stay.

- Mark, September 2025

Thank you for your kind review. I’m so glad you all enjoyed the cottage even though the weather was wet and wild at times. There is so many places to visit around Northumberland and I’m glad you managed a good walk in reasonable weather. It was lovely to meet your family and your 2 miniature dachshunds were perfect guests. Property Owner

“Really nice property.”

Had comfortable stay but had to have fire on to get heating. Lovely garden and summer house. Oven door needs attention.

Helen August 2025

“We had a wonderful week at Loanview as a family of 4.”

The cottage is spacious and well decorated with an abundance of cosy blankets and cushions. We enjoyed the outdoor space, especially the summer house. The cottage and grounds were secure and safe for our autistic child, and a stair gate is provided to prevent access to the steep staircase if needed. Locally there was a great children's play area just a couple of minutes walk from the cottage, a local shop a couple of miles away, and access to Berwick for shops and beaches within 20-25 minutes. Would definitely return.

- Helen, August 2025

Thank you for your review. I am pleased you all enjoyed your holiday. It makes a big difference when all the children have a good time at the cottage and when they go off on an adventure and your husband enjoyed the bbq.i would look forward to seeing all of you again. Property Owner
Andrew August 2025

“Property is located in the rural side of Northumberland near Coldstream.”

The back is a very beautiful view of a hill littered with sheeps. It is so calm and serene when you sit outside on the garden. They have a well manicured lawn with a summer house that you can sit in and just have a read. However, I would not read there in the afternoon because it faces the sun so it gets really hot and bright. Next to it is the owners allotment. There is also a small patch for flowered garden with a little garden gazebo with plastic chairs and table. We had a lovely dinner here one evening. Inside, there are 3 bedrooms. One is upstairs in the attic with twin beds. Unfortunately, it was too warm so we did not stay there. The room has only one single attic window which does not give enough sunlight nor breeze. Downstairs, there are two bedrooms. One with a double bed & another with a twin bed. The beds were all clean with fresh linen and sheets. They are comfortable to sleep in. Each room has its own wooden dressing table. I think the owner wants to make sure that the wood doesn’t get chipped or ruined (which is fair enough) so they had placed plastic trays around. These trays are in the bedrooms and the toilet. There are instructions to remove all linens after your stay and put them inside laundry bags that they have provided. The bedroom with the double bed is situated awkwardly looking out onto the parking bay of the cottage. So everyday when I woke up and open the window curtains, the first thing that I see is our car which is funny in a way. The car park is an off road parking bay next to the entrance of the cottage. The bedrooms are slightly dark due to having only one window each. Not a lot of natural light going in. There is a central heating but we did not need to use that. Besides that, two of the rooms have fans provided and a little portable heater. The fan is a very old electric tower fan but still functions although the oscillation button doesn’t work anymore. The downside of the cottage is having only one bathroom/toilet. There are only 4 of us on this holiday but it takes us a long time to come out of the house due to waiting for the each one of us to finish in the bathroom. The cottage can sleep 6 people but I would not advice having more than 4 people due to this. The bathroom has a bathtub and an electric shower. The owner had provided a LOT of cleaning supplies inside the bathroom. There is a kitchen with electric hobs and small oven. Easy to work out. The owners have provided us with a pint of milk, cheese and biscuits on our arrival on the first day. The property has a fridge freezer, electric kettle, microwave and air fryer. They also have adequate amount of pots and pans for cooking. They have plenty of plates, cups, saucers and cutleries. A load of choping boards in the kitchen! We had a well behaved, rarely barks puppy with us on our holiday. Dogs (well behaved) are not allowed on the beds, upstairs or on top of sofa’s and furniture. The living room has a wide tv with freeview and wifi. Be aware that the wifi only works in the living room, kitchen and bedroom downstairs with the twin beds. It does NOT reach the double bedroom and the twin upstairs. It also is unable to reach the gardens. Had to make do with the 4G but even that barely works inside the double bedroom. I think this has to do with the thick walls of the cottage. I checked the speed of their wifi and it is 60Mbps for downloads and 29Mbps for uploads. The owner may need to think of having a Wifi mesh to make sure that the whole cottage and garden has coverage. Kids nowadays likes to have their gadgets. The village does not have any shops nor restaurants. The nearest shop is about 5-10 min drive from the cottage. There are a lot of beautiful and interesting historical sites around. We’ve been to castles, abbeys and a cruise on a boat to see grey seals. Unfortunately, we were not able to see puffins but we were told that their numbers have gone up and they are largely around in the months of March-June. There are also a lot of restaurants in Northumberland that caters for dogs. But they only serve food during lunch and dinner time. Only drinks in between. Nearby interesting places are Ford and Etal. Nice places. They have a mini train that goes between these two. Never forget to go the the Holy Island where Lindisfarne Abbey is. Find times for low tide for safe crossing on their website. There is also the Bamburgh Castle and the Dryburgh Abbey nearby. Melrose, Warkworth and Jedburgh are also two interesting places to go to. Don’t miss the Muse of Nature, tomb of Sir William Scott, house of Mary Queen of Scots, Jedburgh Jail. All in all, a very good holiday with the family. The owners are lovely and have checked on us twice (arrival and before departing) but they live nearby so if needed they are easy to get hold of.

- Andrew, August 2025

Thank you for your review. We are very pleased you enjoyed your holiday in beautiful Northumberland along with the bottle of wine and locally made cheese and biscuits we provided Our orchard and gardens are close so if we are working in them, guests can always have a chat and ask for advice. You may even get some fresh eggs, veg and fruit. There are sheep in our fields so dogs and small children should always be attended to while they are playing in the paddock. Property Owner
Nicholas June 2025

“Fantastic comfy cottage ideally situated for everyone needs whether it’s castles, river / sea cruises, beach etc.”

lovely summer house to rest in after a long day out and very secure garden and lovely field area for the dog to play in. Host were very friendly and a lovely couple so can’t recommend it enough.

- Nicholas, June 2025

Thank you so much for your review. It was lovely to meet your family and your gorgeous dog. There is so much to see in Northumberland and the Borders and I’m glad you managed to visit so many out standing venues. Thank you for taking time to write the revue after your very long journey home. Property Owner
Lynda June 2025

“My husband and I and our Golden Retriever had a lovely stay here at Loan View.”

We met the owners who were very friendly and welcoming. It was a great location for exploring the Scottish Borders (incl Edinburgh!) and the top of Northumberland. The garden was a real bonus (completely enclosed and with a field that the dog loved and I hadn't realised was there) as was the summer house. The kitchen had a good selection of pots/pans etc . The Cornhill Community Shop minutes down the road was amazing. We would highly recommend this cottage. We will definitely stay here again.

- Lynda, June 2025

Thank you for your review and we were pleased you enjoyed visiting the area and your retriever enjoyed the paddock. We will look forward to seeing you if you decide to visit Loanview again. Could you tell me if you left an extendable dog lead if so I will return it. Property Owner
Val June 2025

“Very spacious property although if 6 people were staying only having one small bathroom might be an issue.”

Very comfy beds and exceedingly well equipped kitchen.The summerhouse was great for the cool evenings as I could sit in the sunshine in the doorway feeling the fresh air but sheltered from the wind - bliss!. The location was great for exploring both the Scottish borders and Northumberland. Our hosts lived across the road and we're so welcoming and friendly - a lovely couple. Overall the cottage lends itself to a very relaxed stay after busy days out.

- Val, June 2025

Jim and I are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Loanview. You were lucky with the weather and were able to enjoy some long walks in Northumberland and the Borders. The summer house has been enjoyed by lots of visitors, some just to relaxing others to wrap up warm and watch the stars on dark nights. Regards to both of you and enjoy your new granddaughter.x Property Owner
Ben May 2025

“A very traditional country cottage which was just as advertised.”

The owners were lovely and spoke with us on arrival and departure. The outside grounds are beautiful and immaculately maintained, with brilliant gardens, summerhouse and paddock/field ideal for relaxing spring/summer breaks with children. Thank you!

- Ben, May 2025

Thank you for your kind review. I’m glad you all enjoyed the cottage and the summerhouse. You were lucky with the weather so we’re able to go to swimming visit the beaches. Just what children enjoy. Happy children means a happy holiday. I’m so sorry about the bbq, I have checked it and it has been cleaned.I should have told you that there is another small bbq in the wood shed. Property Owner
Amanda May 2025

“A peaceful cottage and great base for exploring the area.”

Our 2 springers loved it and it was so good to have a completely secure garden and paddock for them to run around in. Jim was very knowledgeable about the area and always around if you need to ask anything. Hopefully we will be back

- Amanda, May 2025

Thank you Amanda for your kind review. I’mglad you enjoyed your stay. It was great to see your gorgeous Springers enjoying the paddock and garden and you were a Leto ghetto some of the lovely locations in the area. You are always welcome with you well behaved dogs. Property Owner

Dennis November 2024

“Jim met us on our arrival a gave us a tour which was clean and comfortable and had everything we and the dogs needed.”

Good enclosed gardens and paddock. Plenty of logs (free) for the much needed fire in November. Unfortunately we had to a few days early due to ill health. Ideal base for visiting other areas. Wouldn’t hesitate to return.

- Dennis, November 2024

Thank you for your good review. It is so nice to hear from guests who enjoyed their stay in our cottage. I was sorry I didn’t get to meet you and your dogs but will look forward to welcoming all of you if you visit Loanview again. I do hope you are both keeping well. Good health to all your family in 2025. Jim&Pamela Property Owner
Michael October 2024

“We enjoyed our stay at Loanview cottage very much, Jim and Pam were very helpful.”

The cottage was very cosy, the logburner kept us comfortable, with an unlimited supply of logs. Tarn our setter enjoyed hunting the pheasants in the paddock. Good dog walking at Spittle beach by Berwick - on-Tweed, Bamburgh and the river Till by Etam.

- Michael, October 2024

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay at Loanview and you were warm and comfortable. There are lots of lovely walks for dogs. In the hills and beaches. It was lovely to meet you and Tarn and hope to see you again when you visit Northumberland. Have a merry Christmas and good health in 2025. Property Owner
Andrew October 2024

“Really enjoyed our stay.”

A cosy cottage with all that you need for both Humans and dogs ! The log burner was extremely welcome as the nights have got colder. Jim and Pam are the perfect hosts and made sure everything was just right. The enclosed garden in itself was wonderful knowing you could let your dogs out and know they could not escape. To top it off with a large paddock area for your dogs to run and play was just fantastic. 'Jims' cabin in the garden afforded a relaxing time for both us and the dogs. Don't expect it to be a 'showhome' it isn't, however a welcoming cosy cottage it is. Well done Jim and Pam. Andrew and Wendy Boyland , and Penny and Suzie Our Loveable staffies.

“On arrival cottage looked lovely had a tour by Jim afterwards we realised that ...”

On arrival cottage looked lovely had a tour by Jim afterwards we realised that the bedroom had a fusty smell all the time cobwebs behide the bed and our clothes where always damp after being in that room as for the kitchen the oven didn't work wasn't cooking food at right temp so Jim got someone to come and look at it which didn't really help the situation cause the man said it needed a thermostat I will come back a week later we will be gone by then then the dishwasher didn't work or the toaster so we reported that and was told they would come the next morning to look at it but they cancelled and never turned up we tired having a bath but the water was cold only filled the bath with a third of warm water it was one thing after another the cottage definitely needs improving especially the kitchen so if u wanna go away and not cook anything or wash the pots u will be fine the only bonus of the cottage was the log fire that was nice every night also if u want to relax in the garden or summerhouse u couldn't cause the owner kept walking around the back of the garden banging in his garage or doing gardening so when we let our dogs out they would bark at him it was normally at 730 am as well don't know why someone wants to potter around a garden at that time is beyond me as he said our dogs where vishious cause they where barking which upset me cause they where only protecting me and the property but as soon as I called them they went back into the cottage definitely wouldn't go again and cannot understand why no one else has complained about these issues not good cause this is just basic issues that should have be resolved before we went or while we where there

- Ruth, September 2024

Dear Miss Schofield, Thank you for your feedback Please note most of the issues you experienced weren't raised until the Thursday 19th of September your stay started on Saturday the 14th Electrical issues can occur at any time, and we arranged to get an electrician out to look at fixing the problem, on a short timescale, but he needed to order the part. The oven was the only part of the cooker not working but it did heat to180c. As a result, we provided a family size and smaller air fryers as a stop gap. The 700w microwave is adequate to heat food and there is also a slow cooker in the cupboard. As an apology we dropped off a selection of organic vegetables and 4 lamb chops . All white goods are checked to make sure they are working correctly before a change over. The dishwasher following your stay, was test and performed as per the manufacturer settings. The toaster was emptied and inspected before your arrival. The cleaner checked the toaster after you left and photographed the damage. The reason we could not visit the cottage as planned, I had an early doctor’s appointment. Some days are better for me than others and as I am unsteady on my feet and I may have had issues retreating from your dogs if required. . 2 well behaved dogs are very welcome but must be supervised at all times and not left in the cottage. Our hot water system is by an immersion heater that runs constantly also heated by the wood burning stove. Both systems are adequate for families providing plenty hot water.There is also an electric shower. We are pleased you enjoyed the log fire and the wood provided free for your stay at our cottage. Our small holding is away from the cottage boundaries, and our dogs are walked every morning between 7am and 8am. We know we can't do anything more than apologise but given the circumstances we tried our best to rectify your requests, all our previous reviews reflect how Loan View is loved by all who come to stay in beautiful rural Northumberland. Property Owner

“The kitchen could do with updating - new cutlery/plates/cooking equipment.”

Positives Dog friendly, secure garden was brilliant. No light pollution - the stars on a clear night were outstanding Very comfortable bed with lovely bed linen Cleanliness of the cottage Wood burner, with unlimited logs. Lots to do and see in the wonderful Borders\Northumberland Amazing host - Jim was a star. We would definitely stay again. The positives outweigh the only negative. A lovely cottage for a relaxing break.

- Jim, August 2024

So pleases you enjoyed your visit to Loanview. Sorry not to have met you but Jim kept me up to date on how you were enjoying the cottage, garden and log cabin and your dog was also enjoying the paddock. I’m sorry you didn’t mention to Jim that one of the kitchen cupboard door was not opening correctly this has now been repaired. The kitchen is on the to do list and we hope we’ll manage when I’m up and able to move around. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely dog when you come to visit again. Kind regards Pamela Property Owner
