    “We loved our stay at Briar Cottage.”

    The Cottage was lovely and cosy, even in the winter with snow outside. It was quiet and we didn’t notice any noise from the road outside. A well-equipped kitchen - we were able to do cooker breakfast and beef bourginon without any difficulty. The wood burner was a welcome addition and we used it every night. A lovely country retreat. It was a great place to explore Northumbria from - we had day trips up to Lindisfarne and down to Durham. We’re already planning to return in the ...

    The Cottage was lovely and cosy, even in the winter with snow outside. It was quiet and we didn’t notice any noise from the road outside. A well-equipped kitchen - we were able to do cooker breakfast and beef bourginon without any difficulty. The wood burner was a welcome addition and we used it every night. A lovely country retreat. It was a great place to explore Northumbria from - we had day trips up to Lindisfarne and down to Durham. We’re already planning to return in the Spring/Summer, to see some of the sites that were closed over winter. The cottage is just a short drive from lovely Alnwick, which has some lovely restaurants, a great little market and a fantastic second hand bookshop. One point of feedback was that the cottage was still a little chilly when we arrived - it took a little while to warm up from cold, but that was to be expected considering the snow on the ground! Our lovely host Debra had baked us a Victoria Sponge and put the heating on early which was a wonderful welcome to Northumbria. Thank you - we’ll definitely be back again soon!
