The cottage was perfect, lovely and relaxing place to stay. The views are stunning and the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. We have already recommended the cottage to family and we cant wait to return later in the summer. The location is perfect for exploring Cumbria, Northumberland and the Scottish Borders.

Just needed a place to unwind after stressful time at home, this cottage was ideal, quiet, comfortable and not to far from local amenities. Owners are very friendly and there if needed. Brampton is a very friendly small town, with dog friendly cafes and The Howard hotel is very dog friendly and a popular eating place.

The cottage itself was brilliant, had all you need to have a comfortable stay. The bathroom was large and the shower big enough to shower without acrobatics.

First impression of the cottage was very good.the kitchen has everything you should need,the king-size bed was excellent,we both slept well. The garden is dog proof so no need to watch your dog when it goes out. There is a towel provided for dogs if they get wet. This cottage is lovely and quiet, but only a couple of miles from food shops and pubs.Read more You can go into Scotland from here, a ride up the A7 to Selkirk and back to Moffet was scenic.you can walk hadrians wall path from the garden .five * Hide

Been to many holiday cottages in the past and the thing that made this one really stand out from the rest, the bed. I slept like a log and didn't wake up with backache like I did on other beds. The situation of the cottage was brill, close to the path of Hadrian's Wall. If you wanted to stargaze, there's no light pollution.
