“We had a very memorable stay at Miller's Retreat, we loved the property and the village which was very friendly and the ideal location for getting around to coast and towns.”
The cottage was better than described and everything we could possibly need was there. Thank you Catherine it was great to meet you.

Georgina “Lovely cottage we really enjoyed our stay.”
It was spotless when we arrived and very well looked after. The hosts had thought of everything we could possibly need, tea and coffee were provided and a lovely welcome tray with wine and snacks was a nice touch. Catherine popped in when arrived and gave us some very helpful information about the area. The cottage is in a great location for exploring the area and the village of Ledbury is beautiful with lots of lovely walks nearby and you can walk to the beach within 30 mins. Thanks for a lovely holiday
- Georgina, August 2024Michelle “Miller’s Retreat is a fantastic place to stay.”
It is very comfortably and tastefully furnished with everything we could possibly need. The location is great with nice walks from the door and has easy access to lots of towns and attractions by car, bus and train. Catherine, the owner, was extremely helpful in recommending places to go and also left a delicious tray of treats on arrival. It was definitely worth the long drive up from the South, we didn’t want to leave at the end of our week’s stay.
- Michelle, July 2024Rosemary “We couldn't have been happier with the cottage.”
It was beautifully furnished and the kitchen was very well equipped. The beds were extremely comfortable. The owner was very welcoming and had left milk, coffee and tea, wine and yummy biscuits and a box of treats for the dogs! Excellent holiday home!

Nice host who made the stay very easy with excellent communications throughout.
- Andrew, October 2023Maria “A cosy well equipped cottage in a pretty village close to local amenities (a community run village shop and the cottage is also only a short drive from Alnwick).”
Walks from the door and beaches within 5 minutes of the cottage. Lots of information from the hosts. We had a great holiday with our new rescue dog and hope to book the cottage again
- Maria, October 2023Jarrod “The cottage was very well appointed, tastefully decorated to a high standard.”
Double bed was comfortable, plenty of storage in the room. Excellent rain shower & fully equipped kitchen. All very clean. The only disadvantages were having no washing machine & if our friends had come to stay, there was not enough room for 3 cars to park as suggested. We would certainly come back
- Jarrod, September 2023Graham “Everything about the Cottage was first class - as were the Owners who were very helpful.”
- Graham, September 2023Martin “Beautiful cottage in lovely village.”
Fantastic dog walks in local vicinity. Thank you for welcome pack. Everything you could need for a wonderful stay. Many thanks for recommending local deli in Alnwick, food was very nice. As always Northumbrian people so friendly , a pleasure to visit. Will be back. Martin & Elaine & Leo.
- Martin, July 2023Julie “Lovely cottage.”
Very comfortable. Good location for exploring.
- Julie, July 2023Leslie “We had an excellent week at Millers Retreat.”
The cottage is comfortable, clean and provides excellent facilities. Catherine and Peter also provide very good information on the area and we enjoyed visiting the many local places of interest and some very enjoyable walks. Within easy visiting distance there are also many good places providing really nice evening dining.
- Leslie, July 2023Malcolm “We stayed at Millers Retreat in June 2022 for 7 nights and enjoyed the area and accommodation so much we booked again for 14 night June 2024.”
On both occasions the weather was great. There are many walks from the property, coastal, river and countryside and so many interesting places within a short drive or bus ride. The cottage is very well equiped with welcome packs for humans and dogs. Good offroad parking and a small secure gravel garden with table, chairs and BBQ. Location was perfect for us and if the nearby pub opens again it would add an extra attraction.
- Malcolm, June 2023J “The best equipped cottage ever.”
A real home from home. Lovely village with a friendly neighbourhood. A great position for walking and touring.
- J, May 2023Jacqueline “Millers Cottage is extremely clean, comfortable and warm.”

The cottage was beautiful and had everything we could possibly need. The house was so quiet and the beds were comfortable. The cottage is located in an ideal spot and we ventured to a variety of dog friendly stunning beaches. We could not have asked for any more. We have had a truly fantastic week and feel refreshed and relaxed.
- Kate, February 2023Christine “What a lovely cottage!”
It had absolutely everything we needed!! Thankyou to our hosts for the welcome basket… Prosecco, biscuits and milk…. There were even dog treats and bowls. We would highly recommend this little gem which is near to the sea and to some lovely walks.
- Christine, December 2022Rachael “Lovely cosy cottage, ideally placed to explore Northumberland and with fantastic walks from the door.”

The welcome gifts were brilliant too.
- Christine, October 2022David “Thoroughly enjoyed our 1-week stay at Miller's Retreat, which was shared with our young Welsh Terrier.”
Everything that we needed was there and we really enjoyed the rear patio garden in the generally fine weather. The information provided by the owners about the property and local attractions in Northumberland was excellent.
- David, June 2022Malcolm “Millers retreat is a perfect holiday retreat, the location although a mile from the coast and Alnmouth is ideal.”
Footpaths run through or from the location (Lesbury) to Almouth, Alnwick and there are links to the Coastal Path to go north or south without having to walk with traffic. Bus stops in or just outside the village provide access to the excellent network with services going North, South, East and West. We parked the car on arrival and it didn't move for the week. The area is stunning, fabulous coastline, beautiful towns and villages, lovely friendly people and lots of historical interest. The cottage is very well equipped for dogs and their human companions with many surprise touches. The enclosed small garden area is a safe space and the afternoon sun makes it a great place to chill after a day exploring. We enjoyed it so much we have booked a two week stay next year. Malcolm & Gillian Young plus Merri.
- Malcolm, June 2022Catherine “Just returned from a week in this lovely cottage.”
It thoroughly deserves all the previous 5 star feedbacks.
- Catherine, May 2022Kate “Well equipped cottage that was comfortable and situated in a great village location, right on the coastal route, close to Alnwick for shops (inc M&S foodhall) as well as the coast and lovely countryside.”
The walk into Alnmouth takes 30mins across the fields - make sure you book if you are hoping to get a meal (Hope & Anchor very good). Buses to Berwick pass through the village. Doggy friendly. Beds comfortable. Good shower. Owner checked everything ok. Would recommend this cottage to anyone.
- Kate, April 2022Deborah “We had a wonderful week's stay at Miller's Retreat.”
Catherine the host could not have done more for us and was very helpful with advice about the local area. The cottage was beautiful, spacious, cosy and well equipped with everything you could need. Lovely to come back to after chilly walks on the beach. A lovely garden area to sit and relax too! The area was a perfect base to explore and we cannot recommend highly enough. We are hoping to return soon, thank you!
- Deborah, April 2022Barbara “Loved our stay.”
Comfy, cosy and everything we needed. Owners very helpful and did everything they could for our holiday - which with a baby, a 4 year old and a spaniel is a lot!! Very handy location and base for us to explore Northumberland.
- Barbara, April 2022Bryan “Such a well equipped, comfortable and clean "bolt-hole".”
Ideal for a change in scenery and a restful time.
- Bryan, February 2022Derek “Millers Retreat ranks as one of the best cottages that we have ever stayed in.”
It is an outstanding cottage and the owners have gone to extra lengths to make this a real home from home. Everything is high end, lovely comfy bed and furniture, clean and very warm. A welcoming cottage for anybody's holiday. Thankyou to Catherine and Peter. Ann Downe (Cumbria)
- Derek, November 2021Linda “Tip top cottage.”
Attention to detail and personal touches second to none. Massive downsize - Strong smell of pets in lounge which lasted for 4 full days before dissipating. Would not return to Miller's Retreat because of this.
- Linda, October 2021Patricia “The property was clean and comfortable.”
It was extremely well equipped and had everything you could possibly need! The owner paid us a curtesy call making sure that everything was ok. I would recommend this property without reservations.
- Patricia, October 2021Ian “This cottage was like a home away from home.”
Beautifully presented, marvelously situated. Just a pity, due to problems at home, we could not appreciate the whole week.
- Ian, October 2021Lesley “We had a lovely week in Miller's Retreat.”
The accommodation is small but was ideal for the two of us and the dog. The owners were lovely and came to check that we had everything we needed and shared their local knowledge. They also left a thoughtful welcome gift and absolutely everything we needed was available. We would highly recommend accommodation, from which to enjoy the beautiful Northumbrian coast.
- Lesley, July 2021Alistair “Very cosy cottage, handy for lots of Northumberland sites.”
Would definitely recommend. The local pub is closed, hopefully will reopen at some stage when Covid passes. The owner, Catherine, makes a point of providing everything you might need. We had brought tea towels, bin bags, tea bags etc, but all was already provided. She also popped round to welcome us, and checked to make sure we were all ok. She also provided a bottle of wine, nice biscuits and crisps, which were all very welcome.The information sheets provided were also fantastic. Very useful, with lots of local knowledge provided. Lovely tiny patio type garden at the back for breakfast when the weather is good. Lovely plants and flowers in both the back and front garden. Obviously a talented gardener :) All in all a fantastic experience! Many thanks!
- Alistair, July 2021William “The cottage was extremely clean, very comfortable and cosy.”
Very well equipped. The owners introduced themselves and were on hand if required. The cottage is in an excellent position to visit the whole area. The village is lovely and very friendly. Overall, we would heartily recommend the cottage, you will not be disappointed
- William, June 2021Thomas “Great accommodation very clean and contained everything needed for cooking, cleaning, dog comfort and more.”
Such a wonderful holiday and will definitely book again. Only one thing that could have improved it for my little chihuahua was the garden, she didn't like the stones and would have preferred grass. but as she was out with us all day it didn't matter too much.
- Thomas, May 2021Anna “We had a fantastic holiday.”
The cottage was by far the best we've stayed in, it had everything we needed. The owners were really welcoming and helpful. We would definitely recommend staying here.
- Anna, August 2020Barbara “We have stayed in many holiday cottages and I have to say Millers Retreat is the best.”
It was comfortable with lots of homely touches, every detail seemed to be thought about and a bottle of wine and treats were there to greet us on arrival, even treats for the dog. A great cottage which I would happily book again if visiting Northumberland. The beaches are lovely and clean and we never had any problems social distancing and all beaches are dog friendly.
- Barbara, July 2020Jo “Lovely cottage”

- Ian, August 2019Monika “Cottage was warm and welcoming.”
Central heating was efficient and much appreciated in a very wet week. WIFI worked brilliantly and a large selection of dvds to view aswell. Kitchen well equipped and appliances clean and worked properly. Fresh flowers in vases and welcome tray much appreciated after long journey. Excellent laminated instructions for all appliances, and how to work the dvd, tv and digibox. Bathroom was warm and clean, shower very efficient with unlimited hot water. Owner popped round to welcome us and the leaflets and guidebooks left were most helpful as were the two large maps on the kitchen wall. The back garden had some comfy chairs and lovely patio pots where we could catch the evening sun on the one evening it decided to come out!
- Monika, June 2019Patricia “A very well placed cottage in Lesbury, close to all places of interest.”
Comfortable, cosy and well equipped. One of the best cottages we have been to. Always expect a good standard and we were not disappointed. Thank you.
- Patricia, May 2019Sandra “A fabulous cosy cottage with everything you would require in a lovely friendly village.”
The owner is really nice and came round to make sure we had everything we needed. The outside seating area was welcome for meals due the the fabulously warm weather. Thoroughly recommend the Coach Inn in Lesbury and the Sun Inn in Alnmouth. There is a great walk from Lesbury past the village shop and down towards the cricket ground. Another great walk is down below Alnwick Castle and along the river - we spotted a heron on both walks! Alnwick Gardens and Warkwoth Castle are a must. This is our second stay at the cottage but won't be our last!
- Sandra, May 2019Marjory “A delightful cottage in a perfect location for car-free travel: only 10 minutes' walk from Alnmouth station, and bus stops only a couple of minutes away for buses into Alnwick or up and down the coast.”
- Marjory, April 2019Jeremy “Peter and Catherine went out of their way to make us feel welcome and ensure we had a good time.”
Their advice on walks and places to visit was invaluable and we had a really great week. The cottage was perfect for the two of us and our dog, and the welcome pack was indeed, very welcome! We will look to return and do all the walks we didn't have the time to fit in. A beautiful part of the country.
