Wagtail cottage - fantastic
Cottage is lovely, the hosts have thought of everything. Loved the log fire. It’s in a beautiful quiet location - just perfect. Lots to explore and amazing walks close by. Norham Castle, river walls along the viaduct beside the Tweed were fab. Back garden is enclosed so perfect for our dog, and perfect for sitting in when the sun came out. Just an amazing cottage and location, we will be back as there is still more exploring to do.

Lovely well equipped cottage
We had a wonderful 4 night stay in the cottage. Very warm comfortable and really well equipped - particularly comfortable beds and bedding etc. Lovely fresh eggs on arrival which was a bonus. Easy parking and a nice private garden. All the mod cons and decent wi fi to keep the teens happy. Quiet peaceful location not far from Berwick and the coast and a fabulous pub up the road - the Plough on the Hill - well worth a visit!

Wonderful (and warm) country retreat
We arrived on Monday afternoon and found the property lovely and cosy. It is very well appointed and had everything we needed including bottle opener, malt vinegar and dog bowl to mention only a few. We went to investigate the area - the nearest pub (The Plough on the Hill) is about 1.5 miles away up a very steep hill and is shut on a Monday night. It was however open on Thursday and we had a wonderful meal there. We also took a drive down to The Salutation but it was also shut on Monday. The cottage is very rural but this has its advantages as it was really quiet and only about 5 minutes drive from the A1 so we managed to visit lots of the local area. We would recommend a walk round the wall at Berwick upon Tweed and also a visit to Lidisfarne. We had lunch at The Barn at Beal, the menu is quite limited but the fish and chips is awesome! I would definitely recommend the cottage and think it would be suitable for families as it has a lovely enclosed garden and good working WiFi. There’s a good circular route - about 2.5km - for dog walking too with lots of wild life and birds to see. The owner Laura visited us on the first evening, gave us a few pointers regarding local amenities, made sure we were settled and understood how everything worked. She was also available during the week and delivered extra eggs on request as they were so fresh and delicious. All in all a great place.

Beautiful, comfortable cottage
We have just returned from a lovely week at this really nice cottage . It is finished to a very high standard and Laura left us fresh eggs , milk and a bottle of fizz which was greatly appreciated. Had a very relaxing time with our family and even the dog didn’t want to come home! Thanks again Laura.
