1 Orchard Cottages

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cottage in a stunning setting.

Well equipped and spacious.

The cottage is perfect for walkers and a good location for getting out and about.

It is very spacious and clean with good amenities, would of like a bed sheet instead of the very warm duvet as it was very warm and difficult to sleep. We will be back hopefully next year to carry on with the walks and watch all the wild life around the cottage,we also need to do the serenity boat trip again that was amazing. Would recommend the cottage to anyone we had a great holiday, thank you for the welcome pack really a nice touch

Perfect accommodation for us: quiet, well equipped, perfect views surrounded by nature and easy access by car and on foot.

Would make a great base for cycling. Shop in next village and 2 pubs, coast and kippers in walking distance.

Amazing property very clean and all crockery and equipment like new the high chair and cot was also like new.

The views were amazing lots of walks nearby too from the house we spoke to the owners who live next door who were lovely and helpful with local information. We will defiantly be booking again and would highly recommend. The only 1 small negative is the bedroom curtains were very thin so sun beaming in at 5am could do with blackout or thicker curtains.. Overall an amazing week in northumberland amazing place and amazing beaches nearby.

Orchard court is an example of how holiday cottages should be equipped and run from the welcome basket which was superb, to the fact that all the kitchen utensils were actually useable which is far from the case in many holiday cottages.

The location is excellent and you can walk directly from the cottages to Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle across the fields on public rights of way joining the new England Coastal Path. You are only a short drive from the area's major tourist attraction Like Alnwick, Bamburgh Castle and Lindisfarne. One not so well known attraction which is only a couple of miles from the cottage and somewhere you could spend a whole day is Howick Hall and Gardens. We have stayed in cottages throughout the UK and can safely say Orchard Cottage is one of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in and would recommend to anyone.

What an amazing place to stay.

Everything just perfect. Very warm welcome from the owners. Peace and tranquility enjoyed in a superb property. Loved it so much, have already booked a return visit.

Absolutely fabulous lodge.

Cleanliness was Immaculate, perfect location, lovely host. Every single thing had been thought of with lots of personal touches. Welcome basket, fresh flowers. Just perfect in every way.

We were lucky to find Orchard Cottage since particularly wanted to stay in this area having previously camped numerous times at nearby Proctor Stead.

Walking is a focal part of our holiday and the location is excellent for walks from the door… the accommodation is fab peaceful outlook with fantastic views. Can imagine in the warmer weather sitting out on the patio with the binoculars… beds & living areas were comfortable, easy to live in and clean.

Well located for walking, local pub in the village does good honest food but the kitchen is very well equipped if you want to cater for yourself.

The cottage was an ideal resting spot despite all that Northumberland`s weather could throw at us

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful setting.

Pristine cleanliness with clear attention to detail. Beautiful walks straight from the door but everything you might need to relax inside too. A very generous welcome pack on arrival and lots of leaflets and information on local services and attractions which was really helpful. Recommend this property without reservation.

This was our second Christmas in this lovely cottage and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay again.

It's certainly a peaceful and relaxing place to spend the holiday period and the owners have thought of everything to ensure a comfortable stay. We won't hesitate to return again.

Had a lovely week away in Orchard cottage , couldn’t ask for anymore , it was just perfect , we didn’t want to come home , thank you

Murdoch and Jemma were brilliant hosts ,living next door is handy for any queries .

The accommodation was spotless and everything was at hand . The location is ideal for visiting the coast and all the villages with Alnwick really accessible for everything else . Coco and Quackers were a pleasant distraction and the wildlife in the surrounding area was a joy. We would love to return to this perfect location .

Great property would definitely recommend.

In our top 5 of properties we’ve stayed in. Owners are very friendly and helpful. Good location for the Northumberland coast and only 15 mins from Alnwick where you can do all your shopping. The house is modern and spotless with everything you need. Couldn’t fault it. There are some good walks from the house. We had a very relaxing time there.

In our opinion 1, Orchard Cottage provided us with everything we asked for, everything in the listing's and as far as we were concerned could not find fault with anything.

The owner was most obliging, convivial and nothing was too much trouble. We enjoyed our stay so much that we intend returning again next year.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Orchard Cottage!

From the moment we arrived, it felt like a hidden gem tucked away in an excellent location — peaceful, beautiful, and the perfect spot to relax as a family. The cottage itself is modern, very clean, and thoughtfully well-appointed with everything we could have possibly needed. What really made our stay extra special were Coco the goose and Quackers the duck, who quickly became family favourites and brought so much joy to our visit. It’s those little touches that make a holiday so memorable. Our whole family loved every moment here, and we honestly didn’t want to leave. We highly recommend Orchard Cottage to anyone looking for comfort, charm, and a truly unique getaway. We will definitely be returning!

The best holiday accomodation we have ever stayed in and we have stayed at some very good ones.

A great place to stay, great location, friendly owners.

A truly lovely property.

The cottage was nicely furnished and extremely well equipped with everything needed for self catering. The welcome basket and bottle of wine were much appreciated. The full width bifold doors were amazing and we enjoyed watching the local wildlife each evening. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable holiday and would definitely recommend this property.

We were warmly welcomed by the owners on our arrival and the very generous welcome basket of goodies was much appreciated.

We really enjoyed our stay in this wonderful cottage which is very comfortable and so well equipped with everything and more that you could need. There were ample kitchen utensils and the appliances were easy to use. The Information File was very helpful with clear instructions and useful local information. The location is ideal - peaceful and relaxing with wonderful views. It was so nice to be able to walk into Craster and then further up to Dunstanburgh Castle - worth visiting. It is a very good base for sightseeing in the area. The owners have taken a lot of care and consideration in providing a lovely holiday cottage and we highly recommend it.

Great place to stay, really quiet with beautiful views across open fields.

Plenty of walks in all directions from the door with good choice of places to visit and eat at. Even better equipped than the listing with dishwasher, air fryer etc. House was super well insulated so very warm and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Stopped here before, great location , very comfortable and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and book again.

Wow, what a stunning property, superb location and lovely hosts.

Just back from May bank holiday week at Orchard Cottage. A generous welcome pack awaits your arrival and the kitchen contains everything you'll need. Craster is a short walk down the hill, as is Dunstanbrough castle, the beaches a short 2 mile drive, or a lovely walk. Highly recommended, although I would prefer to keep it all to myself

Probably the most beautifully designed and built house we have stayed in; perfect for a family group like ours (two couples and two children).

The beds were comfy, and the hosts helpful and generous. The location is ideal for coastal walks and visits to Alnwick, Bamburgh and Cragside (to name only a few), and the panoramic view of Dunstan Heughs is wonderful: we had regular sightings of deer and a huge variety of birdlife, as well as a view of the iconic Dunstanburgh Castle in the distance (NB. the walk to Craster via Dunstan Square and the Castle is worth it for the kippers and crab sandwiches alone). A big thankyou to our hosts for a wonderful family holiday.

What a wonderful property in a wonderful location.

The property has everything you need for a great stay and was spotlessly clean. The beds and pillows were so comfy. Great outdoor space for our three children to play. We loved it so much we are looking to rebook for next year. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. Milk, bread, butter and cake were amongst the delights and a surprise bottle of wine in the fridge also was a lovely touch. Thank you for making our holiday ‘one of the best holidays’ say our children.

Our stay at orchard cottage was wonderful.

Waking to go down a few steps to a glorious wide view through the full width patio doors was wonderful. What a brilliant place to relax with your breakfast and watch the sunrise. We had a kestrel patrolling it's territory. The coastal walk to dunstanburgh and the kipper shop was easy from the front door. Alnwick gardens and castle, bamburgh castle, the farne islands with hundreds of puffins and seals and holy island are all within a short drive. Great location, great house. Nice hosts too who live next door.

A lovely holiday house, well equipped and furnished in a beautiful location.

Ample parking for 2 cars, and 10 minutes walk into Craster. There are many walks from the door eg across to Dunstanburgh Castle or down to Howick Hall and back along the coast path. The owners next door were very friendly. We'd like to return some day.

Fabulous well stocked, super clean modern cottage in an amazing location.

10 minute walk to the sea, beautiful views from the cottage and 5 minute walk to the nearest pub. We will be back

We recently stayed at 1 orchard cottages with 4 adults 1 child and 1 infant and we had ample room!

The facilities are fantastic and the location is absolutely breathtaking! The balcony overlooks stunning woods/land with sheep and Dunstanburgh castle. The lodge had a beautiful welcome hamper which included cake, bread, jams and drink sachets all from the local area which was so thoughtful! My daughter had lots to play with- with their additional toys and games! The rocket was such a hit! We will absolutely 100% be staying there again. Such good value for money. It’s also worth noting the owners very kindly brought us extra logs around for the fire which kept us very cosy throughout our stay!

Comfortable, well appointed, everything needed for a super holiday

We couldn't have picked a better place to spend our first Christmas away.

The cottage is fabulous and we spent a very relaxed and comfortable week there. All the fixtures and fittings are of a high quality and we had no problem cooking Christmas dinner with such a well equipped kitchen. The lovely welcome basket and Christmas decorations were much appreciated. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and have certainly put a lot of time and effort into making such a lovely place to stay. We certainly hope to return.

We had a lovely time revisiting old haunts.

The property was clean, the kitchen was well equiped to the extent that even had an air fryer. The woodburner was a welcome resource. Lovely quiet surroundings. Would have no hesitation in recommending.

We enjoyed our stay so much, I had high expectations for this modern cottage but they were exceeded.

I have worked in the holiday cottage industry in the Lake District and have seen and inspected a lot of holiday properties, this is up there with the best. It was tasteful (loved the William Morris touches) warm and so very, very comfortable. Everything about Orchard Cottage was as generous and high quality as as the welcome pack. Luxury touches were where they were needed, linen, mattresses, hand soap etc, but the finishes were visitor proof which allowed us to relax and not worry about a two year old causing damage, that is a very hard balance to strike. Cleanliness was excellent and cleaning products were supplied, always a bonus, the kitchen was very well equipped and we wanted for nothing.. We discovered a high chair, travel cot, step up and various toys in a cupboard which our grandson enjoyed. The bookshelves were well stocked with books, board games, jigsaws and we really appreciated the guest membership to Netflix one very stormy day! There were so many thoughtful touches such as outdoor seating dotted around to catch the sun, when it deigned to shine, and we were fortunate there too. The location is excellent - quiet, peaceful, with wildlife on the doorstep. It is within walking distance of Craster and there are many paths from the cottage if you want to leave the car at home. It is a very good base for so many lovely places along the NE coast. Our son in law did a 10+ mile run each morning and returned invigorated. The icing on the cake was seeing the Northern lights on two separate nights. We certainly hope to return.

The cottage was absolutely superb with fabulous views from the patio.

Our welcome pack was exceptional. It was the best holiday home we have stayed in.

Excellent property, and probably one of the best we have stayed in for cleanliness and facilities.

Very helpful and friendly owner. Lovely quiet village, but easy access to all attractions. From the property saw rabbits, deer, and a kestral. Also saw seals, dolphins, curlew, herons and lots more wildlife. Embleton beach is amazing, and would definitely return to this bungalow.

A great little cottage in a very quiet location but with good access to the main towns.

The property is in good condition, very comfortable. The garden has nice views across the fields and lots of wildlife, we saw deer, rabbits, pheasants…

Unfortunately, due to car problems, we were only able to stay one night.

However, the cottage was exactly as described an we wold have loved to have stopped there the rest of the week. Fresh, modern, clean and great location.

We found the cottage to be exceptionally clean which is very important to us,It was comfortable and had all we needed for a great holiday, Sitting on the patio just looking at nothing but countryside and listening to nothing but birdsong was Wonderful .

Even the 6.5 hours drive home didn’t seem so bad

Outstanding holiday home.

Spacious, well equipped, beautiful, comfortable, spotless, amazing views with great outside furniture and high quality bbq, thoughtful welcome pack. Perfection. Hope to return. Huge thanks to owners.

An excellent cottage very clean with all the facilities that you need.

a very good welcome basket plus a comprehensive visitors guide. It was a pleasure to find a cottage which did not allow dogs.

Friendly owners, beautiful cottage surrounded by lovely view.

We would definitely stay again.

We were a group of four adults sharing this new build high spec house in Dunstan very near to Craster.

The property was ideal for a very comfortable stay in a beautiful location with a great view from the open plan kitchen/living room. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking. This is a ideal house for anyone wanting to explore the coastal paths or to visit nearby Alnwick. Highly recommended.

A lovely, comfortable and well equipped cottage.

We had a great week. There is lots to do nearby.

First time here , won’t be last .

Great position, comfortable bed, well stocked with implements . Very peaceful with relaxing view . Rabbits on back lawn . Have been coming to Northumberland for 25 years , one of the best places we have stayed in .

This is a fantastic holiday property - it has everything you can need.

It's clearn and fresh and modern and clutter free! It's a great location with lots of walks direct from your frontdoor. A lovely village pub in The Cottage Inn and you can walk to Craster to The Jolly Fisherman too! A warm welcome awaits and you won't be disappointed, we will defintely be heading back!

Modern , new, comfortable house in lovely location only a mile from the coast.

Well furnished, light and airy. A great house for a family holiday

We had a lovely stay.

The property is ideal for exploring Northumberland and has everything you need. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and our children enjoyed playing in the garden very much.

A top quality accommodation in a beautiful place.

Very well equipped and a well thought out and generous provisions welcome pack milk bread cake jam etc. overall a comfortable welcoming place.

Excellent property with all comforts covered.

We are missing the great views.

What a lovely property 1 Orchard Cottages is.

It’s modern, spacious, open plan with fabulous full length windows making it light & airy but lovely leather sofa & wood burning stove makes it cosy after dark too. Well equipped kitchen, super comfy beds, so tidy throughout & very clean. Everything & more for a relaxing week away. Near enough to Craster & the coastal path & an amazing dark sky with the added bonus for us, a view of the Northern Lights! Can’t wait to visit again.

This is the perfect property in the perfect location for a stay on the Northumberland Coast.

It is walking distance to Craster, Dunstanburgh Castle, Howick Hall (Circular Walk) and many more. It’s a short drive from Amble and Berwick upon Tweed and all points in between. The cottage is modern, clean, comfortable and extremely well equipped. It also has the most amazing views. The cherry on the cake is the Cottage Inn pub and restaurant which is a short stroll away and serves hearty meals at a very reasonable price. Perfect.

Excellent setting well maintained.

All the facilities you would need for a self catering holiday. Quiet area with plenty wildlife. Helpful hosts.

A pure slice of paradise.

Parking is easy. The owners are delightful and very friendly. Everything you could ever need was there, and I mean everything. The en suite bed was uber comfortable along with cool cotton bedding. The furniture and decor is impeccable. The kitchen is incredible in its contents. BUT, best of all, the view and the silence

Lovely property, clean and extremely well equipped.

Tastefully decorated and laid out. Great location, very quiet, peaceful and relaxing but still close to good walks and all the sights of Northumberland. Would highly recommend.

Superb cottage in a great location within easy walking distance of the coast.

Lots of places to visit nearby. Great local places to eat. House is very modern with all the equipment we could wish for, including a gas BBQ. House is also eco-friendly and best of all for an allergy sufferer, no pets allowed - apart from the local rabbits and deer! Lovely welcome pack on arrival and great art work by the owner. If we visit the area again we would definitely stay here again.

Excellent newly built spacious property with high spec facilities.

Prefect for a relaxing time indoors and offers multiple outdoor seating options. In a great location with footpaths and cycle routes very close by, including to the coast, Craster and beyond.
