  We had a fantastic week with family at this gorgeous property.

  The views front and back were stunning and the area was very peaceful and restful. It was nice to sit out in the hot tub and I imagine when the stars are out it would be even better. We had a lot of rain and cloud for our week, so also got to enjoy snuggling up on the comfy sofas in front of the log burner and the TV. It was brilliant to have 2 en-suite bathrooms plus the family bathroom. The large table was super for eating all together and playing cards and games together on. So many lovely finishing touches in the property, a very well equipped kitchen and the nicknacks with the fox theme were a lovely addition. The welcome hamper was incredibly generous and thoughtful and appealed to us all with Prosecco, chocolate, pint of milk, coffee, tea, biscuits, jams- a kind thought to include a bubble wand and chocolate stars for my 10 year old daughter also. The pub a 2 minute walk away, The Pheasant Inn, did great food and the tea room in Falstone was super for cake or lunch. Falstone also has a very good playground for kids and a pub that looked good too. We enjoyed walking in the area and at Kielder Forest. Booked tickets for the Kielder Observatory which was great and The Bird of Prey Centre was excellent. We drove to Alnwick and toured the castle and loved the National Trust property, Cragside. A fun week for us all. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property as it was perfect, in fact the best rental we have ever stayed in. Many thanks to Jill the owner who was very kind when our car broke down at the end of our stay. (Please remember your midge protection creams and lotions, as you are near Kielder Water/Forest so they are to be expected. A midge protector was also provided by the owner).

  We have just returned from 7 day stay at Fox View Cottage .

  The whole cottage exceeded our expectations it was furnished to a very high standard. Excellent having 3 bathrooms so everybody had their own bathroom. 2 en-suite plus lovely roll top bath with spectacular views of the countryside The cottage was warm & inviting especially when the roaring log fire was lit in the evening. The walk up the hill opposite the cottage was great for our dog Ted especially in the mornings Perfect location to get away from everyday life & fully recharge your batteries in peace & tranquility. Plenty of different Walks around keilder water only a few minutes drive away. Some suitable for a mobility scooter especially keilder waterside visitors centre. Lindisfarne ( Holy Island) & Beamish living museum both approx 1hr 30mins away & well worth a visit. Pub few minutes walk away but didn’t use it as we had the dog with us. Lovely extra touches including welcome basket including cheeky bottle of Prosecco not forgetting a lovely welcome for Ted including dog bed towel & blankets, dishes treats & toys ( Ted will definitely be booking again.) such attention to detail by the lovely owner Jill . It was all much appreciated & we will definitely be booking another stay.

  We had a lovely week at Fox View Cottage.

  The weather was very wet but this didn't stop us getting out and about. Coming back to a warm (lovely log burner) and comfortable cottage was so welcomed. The cottage was so well equipped and lots of nice touches (e.g bike shed, toys for the children and dog). The hot tub was a welcomed addition and used regularly by adults and children. The garden was very safe, small however, very adequate for a small dog and young children. Lots to do nearby at Kielder Water and Forest Park and a nice restaurant only a few steps away from the cottage. Lots of bike rides, walks right on your door step. If you are happy to drive a little further we would recommend South Tynedale Railway and Belsay Hall. A super clean and modern cottage for an active and relaxing family holiday.

  We met the owner who kindly brought a casserole dish / with lid that we requested as there wasn't one available in the kitchen - apparently broken by last quests.

  Kitchen equipment very good / appliances easy to use. Did feel that the mugs / glasses available were limited [how 6 people would cope don't know] as we soon run out of suitable items. Only cereal / soup bowls available so no range of usual dishes bowls to put food / salads in when preparing food. Outside top area through kitchen doors really unwelcoming with loose dirt / stained paving slabs - if redesigned it would have been far better to accommodate outdoor seating. Lower floor with better furniture better to have been on the top area. Hot tub [owner says she will be removing?] would be better if situated elsewhere - we had no interest in it and thought it just took up space. hope that these comments can be taken constructively for future reference.

  Have shared this with owner, lots of areas dirty ie bottom of cooker, cupboards, dishwasher filter full of old food, had to chase a mouse around and looked under sofa and beds and units, some areas filthy.

  Bag of rubbish on worktop on arrival. Hole in floor in bedroom (moved rug looking for mouse) and other areas felt soft. Door extremely hard to lock, impossible if frail. Hottub not fit to use, mould inside and several areas torn which meant avalanche of water onto pump-if you dont own one you wouldnt know it was dangerous. Owner delivered mousetrap and said ‘we’ve order new tub’ but may have been good to let people already booked know its not ok, offer money off or chance to cancel. Definately not worth its 5 tick rating, would have been disappointed if we’d paid half the price! View was only redeeming feature.
