“Relaxing cottage with fantastic views”
Myself, husband and our 2 teenage boys had a fantastic week in The Granary. Very clean and spacious, large fridge and freezer. The boot room was very welcome and the option for the boys to chill in the garden room was much appreciated. Beautiful, relaxing views and the opportunity to see the local farmer and his sheep dogs in action was a delight. Lots of useful information in the cottage with maps and places to visit. Many thanks Kate. Just what we needed....

“Beautiful place with excellent views!”
We stayed at The Granary to attend a family wedding in Otterburn and were amazed at the high standard of the accommodation. A real ‘home from home’ with everything you could possibly need. Lovely scones on arrival provided by our wonderful host Kate, who was available but only if needed. The upside house with beautifully decorated bedrooms on ground floor (one en-suite with superb shower and the other with separate large family bathroom) and large kitchen & lounge with log burner on first floor which shows fantastic views over the garden & surrounding countryside. Would certainly recommend this accommodation but advise that transport is needed. Would definitely return but at a better time of year to fully appreciate the area
