The picturesque Northumberland village of Belford lies in the heart of Heritage countryside, midway between the popular walled towns of Alnwick and Berwick-upon-Tweed.

It was arranged at very short notice and would recommend the property. It was extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean. Very well appointed , the owners have thought of everything to make visit enjoyable. Twin beds in one room would be more useful but could not fault anything else.

The bungalow was clean, bright and spacious. Great views out of the front window and a lovely garden to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. All facilities were in good working order with lots of crockery and pans. The house was always cosy and warm. The local town is friendly with three pubs and a local coop for all your needs. The local garden centre did a great breakfast. We enjoyed food, pub quiz and live music at The Black Swan. The staff there were very friendly. We visited Bamburgh, Craster, Lindisfarne and many other fabulous beaches. Lovely coastal walks everywhere. We are all hoping to visit again and we would highly recommend. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Situated in Belford near to Alnwick and Bamburgh with amazing views across to Holy Island. Great location for visiting this stunning part of Northumberland. We stayed for five nights and loved every minute. After a busy day out and about it was lovely to come back to such lovely cosy modern accommodation. There's simply everything you need there and more. Would love to return and definitely recommend!
