“Luxury retreat, ideal for exploring Northumberland and the Borders”
We had a fabulous week at the Garden House, beautiful weather and an attentive host on site. The accommodation was superb, very clean, all mod cons and very comfortable. We loved having some outside space and made use of the BBQ and gardens. The coast is a short drive away and Berwick only 5 mins drive. Robert was helpful prior to and during our visit, helping us to plan a special lunch out to celebrate our son's 18th birthday and suggesting different places to explore. We will definitely be back.

Response from the manager Thank-you for the review. I only wish you had have looked at the details of the property as it clearly states that the living room is on the first floor, and on my own website which you booked through there is a very detailed floor plan showing this. Whilst it may not have suited your requirements most people enjoy the elevated room and the tourist board inspector who visited on the morning of your arrival commented what a bonus it was to see the panamoric view. The dining room area also has seating facilities with an open fire had the stairs proved a difficulty. I assumed when you booked that you realised from the address details and website that we where on a working farm outside Berwick and I was unware until the week of your arrival that you where using public transport.
