What our customers say about their holidays
Oliver S. - Verified booking
Overflowing with charm and character
If you're considering booking The Little Cottage, by all means, do. The pictures and video simply do not do it justice. Perfectly charming and cosy, The Little Cottage an incredible local art collection. It's as if you're staying in a gallery, minus the stuffiness. The owners have clearly poured heart and soul into every detail, and it doesn't go unnoticed. If you're interested in Beatrix Potter, the cottage is also home to a collection of discrete character paraphernalia, from Squirrel Nutkin references sprinkled throughout the house to an endearing selection of character garden sculptures in the back garden. Excellent (and responsive) heating in winter, comfortable beds, and well stocked and appointed kitchen and amenities. The boot room with drying rack is a plus, as is the star gazing-friendly hot tub. Take care with parking if you're in a large vehicle, as parking is tight (for long vehicles) and can take some maneuvering, as with many areas in the Lake District. Otherwise fantastic location close to Ambelside and Grasmere. Take note the owners' recommendations in the welcome book in the cottage--they've many spot-on recommendations for the area. Prompt and clear communication with Dan the owner--we'll be returning!

Wonderful place and superbly appointed.
Owner (lives on-site next door) is supremely helpful but in no way interfering. Excellent location to tour east (not far - Newcastle then the sea..), west (Cumbria and the rest of Hadrian's Wall beckons), north (the main draw - all the stunning Northumbrian beaches and castles) and south (into North Yorkshire pet). Lovely Welcome pack on arrival - so a cuppa on arrival after a long journey is oh so gratefully received. Note that the master bedroom's en-suite actually has a wonderful large walk-in deluge shower - not mentioned by the owners or on the website (but it should be!). The whole place is perfectly accessible as is on one level - but there is a step into the front door or a much smaller step via the French Windows into the master bedroom (once you are in and have got the key..). Lovely little village with a nice pub (Lion and lamb) that serves really nice food. Note Horsley now only has a single pub as the other has recently closed. There is no local village shop, so Heddon-on-the-Wall (about 3 miles) for papers, milk and fuel etc. Corbridge (7 miles) is a lovely little town which we love and there are restaurants and cafes aplenty.

Outstanding ..
It’s been said but The Little Cottage is a unique find, it’s quality of finish is genuinely exceptional and Dan made the entire experience from first enquiry email, through the booking process to post holiday a real pleasure. The cottage is beautifully appointed, it’s facilities and quality of every element are just a cut above. The garden is a delight and the hot tub welcomed. Everything is “as new” and every pot pan, utensil and appliance of exceptional brand and quality. My family and I visited in August, 2 children and dog, and whilst it is a cottage it’s use of colour, furniture never and it’s clever outside room and space never left us on top of one another. The area itself is idyllic a true find in the U.K. and walks, cycling and water sports are all on your doorstep. The Britannia Inn which is a minute from your door serves superb food and has a quiet happy buzz about it and you get to people watch all the days day walkers making it down from the numerous passes that meet in the village. What can we say 5 stars all the way..

Loved the Shepherdâs Retreat.
Everything we needed was provided including the welcome scones, bottled water & generous logs for fire. Thoroughly enjoyed switching off from world and enjoying peace. Recommend using road from Draperstown to head into cottage as we tried all the various routes and it was by far the best road (watch out for sheep/lambs on roads). Only slightly negative feedback was from my friend who slept in double bed who said mattress could do with replacing as itâs sagging and too uncomfortable for good night sleep. Single beds were super comfortable though. Only addition Iâd recommend would be putting in a phone for emergencies (locked against outgoing calls all but emergency ones) as if our families needed us theyâd have had to wait for us to leave the valley to get in touch.

Had the most relaxing week in beautiful Northumberland!
The Cowshed exceeded all our expectations. The photographs donât do it justice. Itâs spacious, and yet still so cozy. Itâs been so tastefully renovated, . A fabulous mix of old and new. We loved its quirkyness, the artwork and all the little touches that make it feel like home. It was lovely to find a welcome hamper with Prosecco, coffee and tea & milk in the fridge! It has everything you need for a comfortable stay, plenty of lovely handsoaps and toiletries.. it was also spotlessly clean. Margaret is a lovely host and was very welcoming, reassuring us that if we needed anything then we only had to knock her door. Thank you again for a super holiday. We canât wait to return, hopefully later in the year. Dee & Tony Newman.
