What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage was clean and tidy.

  However, there is no 'over the bath shower' as in the description, only a rubber shower hose that does not fit on the taps. Someone from another cottage was parked outside the sitting room window of our cottage - we felt this intruded into our privacy. As a previous review said, there was only 2 mugs, glasses, etc, which meant you had to wash up a late evening drink in order to be ready for a cuppa in the morning. We felt that the towel radiator in the bathroom was dangerous - although there is a small sign saying that it is hot, I came away with 3 burns on my arms from putting things over the towel rail. The storage heater in the bathroom is impossible to use - it's right next to the toilet, so for any heat you need the towel rail on. For an older person, perhaps unsteady on their feet, there is a real risk of serious injury.

  Peth Head Cottage is absolutely beautiful and was in a perfect location for our walking holiday in the Cheviots.

  The cottage is tastefully decorated. I particularly appreciated the extremely comfortable beds and the fabulous bedding. The log fire was also wonderful, and very efficient, as the weather was quite cold when we were there and we just needed to be cosy in the evenings after a long day walking. As well the High Street is only a stone’s throw away, with lots of useful small shops we were able to get everything we needed locally. There is only one thing that I would have loved to have in the kitchen! A colander! I would recommend this cottage to anyone – this is one of the best cottages I have ever rented.

  We have stayed at this cottage several times and whenever we plan a trip to Northumberland it’s the first cottage I look for.

  I wouldn’t describe the house as plush but it is clean, warm and comfortable. The cottage is ideally situated - close to shops and restaurants but with easy access to the hills. The only downside (which has to do with the town and not the house) is that they have changed the way electric car owners access the chargers. For the past few years we have been able to plug in, pay and charge our car. Now you have to use an app. I don’t know what’s going on - even in Alnwick all the chargers require apps. The provider is a company called Ampup and they are a nightmare to use and fail most of the time.

  I was very unsure of where the cottage was in the village before booking.

  Was very disappointed to find it was in a quite neglected row of houses with the cottage next door being renovated and the back area was like a building site. The lace curtains in the window made the cottage look very run down. They also needed a wash. I took them down and put them back up at the end of the stay. Access to the property was impossible. I caught and broke my wing mirror on the corner of the house whilst trying to leave Path Head as the access is so tight The kitchen was very clean but had a strange smell which did not go even after using air freshener

  The fact that there is really only a very narrow, short bath and not enough hot water.

  No instructions (other than washing machine) or tips on what to do/where to go in the area. Pretty limited cutlery/glasses - no spare if you wanted a small glass by your bed for example. The single beds have duvets that don’t cover them so nights were chilly, even though it’s summer! No blanket or other covering to help. I’m 5’ 6” and I struggled to fit in the bath or get enough cover from the duvet. My poor husband had a miserable time and he is not even 6 foot!
