Keepers Cottage - North East Escapes♡

Almost perfect traditional cottage west of Prudhoe

9.0

It's a beautiful traditional cottage surrounded by the old buildings of Hindley Hall. Nice location. We'd love to come back. Almost everything was perfect, the rooms, cleanliness, facilities, hospitality, so why not a perfect 10?

− There's only very little to complain about. For us it was mainly the double bed, which was too small for two tall adults. I'm 6.4. There's room enough in the bedroom so it could be wider. The toilet seat was "underwhelming" :) very cheap looking and feeling. And the lights above the cooker didn't work. It's just a details, but that's what makes it a very good 9.

Very comfortable property and great value.

Great property with cosy sitting room and well-equipped kitchen.

− The parking spaces were slightly difficult to access for our larger car when both spaces were in use....not a big deal though, just lots of turning the wheel and 'back and forth' to get the right angle.

Lovely area disappointing property

Welcome gifts. Spacious and warm.

− No secure space for dogs, it was shared with neighbours which had cats and dogs roaming freely. No outdoor seating. Back door straight into kitchen was not sealed making it quite draughty. It was also very difficult to lock. Bathroom was musty with mould on windows and roof. Sink drain plug was stuck in and we had to remove the u bend to access the plug. The u bed was choked with gunge and dirt. We used the washing machine and the waste water ran down the road outside as the drain was choked, again we had to clean that out to prevent it running into neighbours garden. We paid the included fee of £70 for cleaning and an additional £50 for our 2 dogs. The property was full of reed oil fragrancers masking the dampness. The house was surface clean but full of cobwebs. We moved the coffee table and the floor was all crumbs, moved the wood basket, again full of leaves and wood chips.Wiped the kitchen table and the cloth was black. Very disappointed with the standard of cleanliness in the light of the charges we had to pay for taking our dogs we would have expected it to be immaculate. Wifi unstable and wireless connection was non existent even after contacting booking.com for help.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location

Such a beautiful cottage! Very clean, very comfortable, ideal location, very nicely decorated - nothing at all to complain about! Also want to mention just how kind the host is - my wife has a very bad allergy to wheat. I mentioned this in a message after booking to make them aware, not only was this info acknowledged, but they went the extra mile by leaving behind some wheat-free snacks. It is those things that make you stand out as a host :) Thank you again. If you are considering booking. Stop thinking and just do it - you won't be disappointed! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend to family or friends. Thank you for a lovely stay :)

− Nothing to dislike!

De locatie was top. Op een terrein van een voormalige landhuis - met een oorsprong uit de 12e eeuw. Het was er superrustig en de cottage was zeer comfortabel - ingericht voor 4 mensen met een ruime woonkamer, keuken, 2 grote slaapkamer en een nette douche. Je kunt buiten zitten - er zijn banken - dus voldoende - er is heel veel natuur rondom de cottage. Verder zijn er in het gebied veel golfbanen - en daar kwamen wij voor. Dus daarvoor geschikte uitval locatie. Maar uiteraard ook om te wandelen en te genieten van de mooie natuur.
