“5 star Accommodation in a fantastic setting.”

The owners had thought of everything making it a real home from home. One of the nicest accommodation we have stayed in across the world.

“A really lovely comfortable cottage in the heart of Berwick.”

An amazing centre. We arrived by train and used the buses and trains to explore further afield. We even managed to watch a film at The Maltings just 5 minutes walk away..

“Beautiful cottage with everything you could need, 2 minutes walk from the Main Street in Berwick and 5 minutes walk from the sea.”

Lovely decor, comfortable bed and the hosts even contacted us when it was predicted to be cold weather to advise on the heating. Would highly recommend

Glad you enjoyed your stay! Berwick has something to offer all year round and we hope you'll return Property Owner
Donald December 2023

“The cottage is lovely and we were impressed by the generous, thoughtful welcome pack and the Christmas decorations which made the cottage memorably warm and welcoming.”

We wanted to open our bedroom window for ventilation to deal with condensation in the damp weather but the bedroom window was stuck fast. There is black mould growing on the bedroom and bathroom window frames and the frames need to be cleaned thoroughly. We enjoyed our stay very much and would choose Charter's Cottage again if we return to Berwick.

- Donald, December 2023

Thank you for your comments, we're glad you enjoyed your stay and the Christmas decorations. Unfortunately because the house is a listed Georgian property we are restricted to using single glazed sash windows and condensation is an issue. We've stepped up cleaning checks on the frames and opening as a result of your feedback. Property Owner

“The cottage was fantastic, a real home from home.”

We had everything we needed and the owner had good communication. The cottage is very close to the town with plenty to see and do.

“Really enjoyable stay.”

Very comfortable cottage. Well equipped. Location ideal for exploring area. Would highly recommend.

Valerie October 2023

“Would highly recommend, cottage was highly furnished, spotlessly clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay.”

Parking was a bit of an issue, permit supplied but if you couldn’t find a residence spot you had to use the parking disk and you could only stay 2 to 3 hours until you had to move your car. I wouldn’t let this stop me from staying again as the cottage was lovely.

- Valerie, October 2023
Ian October 2023

“Lovely cottage, enjoyed our stay and couldn’t fault the accommodation.”

Will definitely stay here again.

- Ian, October 2023

Glad you had a good stay and we hope to see you in the future. Property Owner
Wendy September 2023

“This is a stunning cottage set in a beautiful cobbled courtyard.”

So quiet you would not know you were in a town. Parked car up and used the Discover Northumberland bus service which for a 3 day saver was exceptional value and a great way of seeing Northumberland. Views from the upstairs of bus meant you could see all the coastline and the beautiful countryside. Only used our car twice. What a result.

- Wendy, September 2023

Thank you for your comments, great to see that you enjoyed your stay. The X18 bus is a really good way to see the sights down the coast. Property Owner
Elaine August 2023

“Very clean and comfortable little cottage, well situated for the town.”

Short walk to the walls and the riverside, as well as the station for going further afield. Lovely area to explore. The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed.

- Elaine, August 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. So pleased you enjoyed visiting Berwick and your stay in the cottage. Hope to see you again. Property Owner

“Could have done with some extra toilet rolls!”

Loved the curtains, but heavy duty curtain hooks are required as each time the curtains were drawn they came off!!

- Christopher, July 2023
