It is such a comfortable warm cottage and perfect for two people and a dog! We really appreciated the lovely cake when we arrived and the logs too. If I have one criticism the shower head was black and needed a clean. Apart from that the cottage was spotless. We loved Northumberland and a week was not long enough to see everything so we will definitely be back.

We loved the view across the fields and those big Northumberland skies. The Bothy was spotlessly clean and we were provided with plenty of towels and other items. It was great to have a secure area outside where our dogs could roam freely. Overall we had a great time and offer our thanks to the friendly and welcoming owners.
