“What a wonderful, comfortable and perfect place to stay.”

A real 'home from home'. We loved the place! Thanks to Samantha and the team.

“My sister stayed in the Humbleton Cottage, along with her daughter and our mother (who has Alzheimer's and mobility issues), and brother + 2 dogs.”

This was arranged when my original booking in Melrose fell through due to the flooding of the National Trust property. This cottage in Wooler proved to be a very good alternative, arranged just before Christmas when the original booking was cancelled. Two very helpful ladies at Sykes assisted me in finding this alternative. It is right next to The Tankerville Arms and owned by the same people. I stayed with my family in The Tankerville Arms (booked directly) and Elaine, Paddy, and their team were very friendly. It made for a good Christmas as we were able to get together in the Inn. We will return I am sure and my sister will book the cottage again.

“What a lovely cottage in a lovely part of the country.”

Great with little kids (washing machine very handy, tv in de kids room so parents could get a lie in, little play area in the pub garden behind the cottages). The pub is also lovely and serves great food! And everyone is so nice and helpful, will definitely recommend!

“The food in the pub attached to the cottage was disappointing but other than that a great stay”

“Despite its traditional charm, the cottage is equipped with modern amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi, and smart TV in all rooms.”

The cottage is situated a short drive away from the stunning Northumberland coastline, making it an ideal location to explore the rich history of Northumberland. We will be back and highly recommend to anyone wishing to visit Northumberland.

“We enjoyed our stay in Humbleton.”

Bed was really comfy, great WiFi/TV. Owners seemed to have provided almost everything you could want except an oven glove (tea towels thin and burnt your hands) A few points to note- no milk , very little washing up liquid/handsoap. One bin liner.No washing machine tablets or cleaning products and no recycling instructions. Also bedrooms were very hot (windows closed as road traffic loud) so a fan would be good if not necessary for coming months. Sofas were not comfortable and bench and tables flimsy but other guests might not think so.

“Fantastic cottage and great location for exploring the local area.”

The Tankerville arms hotel next door is great for food and drinks. The menu has been reduced but suited us well. The staff for the hotel and cottage were all very friendly and accommodating no matter what we needed it was provided. We will be back very soon.

“Cottage is lovely.”

Seemed recently refurbished, immaculate, comfortable and clean. Lovely and spacious for two adults and a child plus two doggies. Bed comfy and everything and more you’d expect for a self catering cottage. Only negative was the Tankerville Arms itself. There is a menu online plus one was printed and left in cottage. Menu was very varied and sounded lovely so we had planned to eat there on the first night. Pub was empty when we arrived (tea time during the Easter weekend) and was told that the blackboard menu was all they had. 4 starters and 4 mains. Not the 3-4 page menu we had seen in website or that was left in our cottage. When we questioned this we were just told that was all they had. By this time my 5 year old son was starving so we ordered for him and went elsewhere. He didn’t eat much of the food, chips weren’t really cooked properly and he’s not usually fussy. I think the menu needs to be removed from the website and not printed and provided for guests as it’s misleading. We would definitely stay in cottages again but won’t be eating at the pub.

“Fab little cottage in Wooler, which makes it a great base for exploring Northumberland.”

The beds are very comfy and the living area is great for winding down after a day out. The warm welcome in the hotel next door is great along with the ales and coal fire. Our dog was very settled there too.

“Humbleton Cottage is immaculate and located in the lovely village of Wooler.”

Locals are friendly and very welcoming. Facilities in cottage are good. Living area is comfortable and everything you require is provided in kitchen including dish washer, as well as TV in living room and each of the bedrooms. However due to it’s design there are no wardrobes upstairs in bedrooms but hangers are located on doors and there are lots of drawers. We will stay here again and hopefully next time there may be a designated parking area for Humbleton as it wasn’t clear if gate could be opened so car could be left outside the cottage. Thanks Skyecottages for your services.

“Loved every minute of our stay.”

Lovely little cottage near the centre of wooler. Great location to visit all the beautiful beaches around the Northumberland coast or literally nice enough to stay close to the cottage where you find great pubs and restaurants . Literally one minute walk to the pub and restaurant which is Very dog friendly. The cottage is brand new so all beds are so comfortable. TVs in every room which was a great addition. Over all a fantastic stay and great value for money. We will definitely be back. Thanks to the great hosts

Tucked away in the historic market town of Wooer is this splendid holiday home, Humbleton. A quiet hotel retreat, serving quality traditional food, fine ales and a warm welcome sits just a stones throw away from the property. Set over two floors, this contemporary dwelling offers a wonderful base for families to come together and explore Northumberland. After finding the off-road parking space, unload your baggage and head into the open-plan living space, appointed with all the mod cons for a short break. Nestled into the sofa and tune into some television whilst you reflect on the days events, or get acquainted in the kitchen and utilise a range of contemporary appliances, whipping up a feast for all to enjoy. Off the kitchen is the family bathroom where you can round off the evening with a deep soak before getting into bed. The bedrooms are positioned upstairs and comprise of a king-size and twin, each neatly presented and offering good storage space for your personal things. Take yourself outside to the shared garden where you can sip on your morning coffee before strolling into the village centre, home to two supermarkets where you can pick up any essentials. Stop off for a coffee at a local café, or why not treat the group to a meal at one of the fine eateries, including a handful of pubs, restaurants and bars. Venture to the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, where you can visit Andy Howeys Birds of Prey Centre and tour the stunning gardens of Paxton House, while history enthusiasts will be delighted by a visit to Berwick Upon Tweed Castle. A little further afield lies the market town of Alnwick, where you can stop off to explore the medieval Alnwick Castle and its landscaped gardens, or if you fancy a day by the coast, the village of Alnmouth gives access to its golden beach where you can catch a tan on the sands or enjoy a relaxing swim in the shallow waters. To the east is the wonderful coastline of Northumberland, regarded as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it offers blazing sunsets, hidden bays, and a number of historical landmarks such as Bamburgh Castle and the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. However you choose to spend your holiday time, the charm and comfort of Humbleton will be awaiting your return.
