Summary: "Homildon Cottage" gives the distinct impression of being cared for and the owners must be commended for their effort to ensure visitors leave "Homildon" with happy memories and lasting impressions. This is a very well furnished holiday rental; clean throughout, and with a kitchen equipped to feed a passing army (of which there was no sign whilst we were there)! The garden at any time of day, is a joy to behold. Contact with manager (Karen) and owner (John) although minimal, received almost immediate response.Thanks to all who help provide such a high quality holiday experience

Summary: Homildon Cottage was amazing. It was so well equipped, very homely and spotlessly clean. There was a gorgeous welcome pack waiting for us which was a lovely touch. We had an amazing stay and hope to return. Thank you.

Summary: This is our second time at Homildon Cottage and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful place. The cottage is warm and comfortable and very well equipped . The position was perfect for ourselves and our 3 dogs. It feels like a much loved cottage and we appreciated all the extras , from the welcome pack to the teabags in the cupboard. Wifi worked find and we appreciated access to BBC IPlayer and other Apps on the TV which I think is new on last summer. What is particularly nice is that you can walk out the door onto the hills and miles of footpaths including St Cuthberts Way. Coast is nearby too and is wonderful- Holy Island and Bamburgh in particular. We took advantage of a Sainsbury delivery on arrival and it is possible -and not too arduous- to walk down to the shops in Wooler and back for top up groceries. We hope to return again.

Summary: Beautiful cottage in lovely surroundings. The cottage was spotless and beautifully presented with everything we could have needed (and more!). Also lots of space for the whole family, including two dogs. Was a perfect place to take our little girl for her first holiday. Thank you.

Summary: We had a fantastic time whilst staying at Homildon. The hosts were so thoughtful with little treats which we found on our arrival. The cottage is in a fantastic location close to a range of activities. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks/runs up Homildon Hill! Our boys made great use of the games room which in turn made our life very easy on an evening. My favourite was most definitely the Aga, I loved getting up on a morning and cooking on it! We definitely would love to stay again!

Summary: A brilliant location, right at the very edge of the National Park. Wooler is a 10-15 minute walk or 3 minute drive. Great location to use as a base to explore both the coast and inland sites; Hadrian's Wall, Rothbury etc The property has been very thoughtfully furnished, lots of guides, books and maps. Highly recommended

Summary: Homildon Cottage is in a beautiful location and is extremely well equipped. The cottage is quietly situated next to the gate leading onto the Cheviot hills where there are miles of footpaths to follow. The welcome packs for ourselves and our dogs were much appreciated. There is plenty to do in the area and the coast at Bamburgh is an easy drive. We hope to return !

Summary: Homildon Cottage situated in a very peaceful location, no traffic noise just accompanied by birdsong and sheep bleating. The cottage was very well appointed and comfortable. Any problems that we encountered were swiftly resolved by Stay Northumbria and the owner. All this helped us enjoy our re-visit to Northumbria after a number of years. Hopefully it will not be so long before we come again.
