Relaxing stay

We had a most relaxing stay at this lovely property. It was clean, comfortable and more than lived up to our expectations. Rosie and John are excellent hosts and the property is a real home from home with everything you need. Our dog loved the safely enclosed garden and we enjoyed the wonderful views!

Excellent

The perfect place for peace and tranquility. John and Rosie were very welcoming and made us feel ‘at home’. The cottage has everything, clean, well equipped, lovely views and delicious cakes provided by John. Lots of places to visit in the area. We shall certainly return. Everything was perfect.

A pure gem

The view from the front of the property is outstanding. The peace and quiet is mesmerising. The cottage is a delight. The hosts are friendly. Location is perfect. 10 minutes from door to parking in Alnwick, which is a lovely town with a huge castle. Can’t think of anything!

A beautiful modern cottage

Quails Nest is in a lovely position with stunning views across the valley to the hills. It is well equipped and beautifully maintained. The village is tiny and very quiet and the night sky full of stars .. a perfect location. Our host, Rosie, is welcoming and extremely helpful and left us a delicious cake! We were very warm and comfortable after our days out with the two dogs. The beds are not very supportive of bad backs, but fine for a few days/nights away… limited hot water at night, not quite enough for two baths! Neither of these things would put us off returning though, as it is such a lovely place to stay.

Book early

This relatively new cottage with all modern conveniences is located in a very small village up in the moors that provides a unique experience with a gorgeous view from your living room and bedroom. Your hosts are next door and very helpful: Rosie responds via email immediately. But they value your privacy and do not intrude. It is also well located for accessing all the major Northumberland places you will want to visit. Highly recommended.

A lovely cottage in a great location.

A great property which is clean and well equipped with everything you would need, and with fabulous views across the valley. It is very well situated for accessing places of interest and there are plenty of options for eating out. The owners Rosie and John are extremely welcoming and are on hand to give advice on where to go and what to see and also provide the best cake!We ran out of time to do everything we would like to and would love to go back.

Quails Nest

John the owner was such a lovely man and went over and beyond making us 2 cakes and bringing them round. His stories were great. The cottage was in idyllic surroundings. Maybe a shelf in the shower for gels and shampoo

Fantastic nest

Quails Nest Cottage was the ideal place to stay for a relaxing week away in Northumberland. The cottage is a new build and was exceptionally clean and spacious and contained all the furniture, fittings and cooking utensils you will ever need. The views from the lounge, overlooking the valley with rolling hills and forests, were just stunning and the cottage was ideally located for hill walking. The cottage is near the town of Alnwick, with its great castle and renowned gardens. The Northumberland coast, with its famous castles, was easily accessible. The hosts Rosemary and John were very inviting and we would like to thank them for making our stay so comforting and relaxing. We would certainly stay at Quails Nest again.

Quail's Nest Cottage is a cosy cottage...

Quail's Nest Cottage is a cosy cottage with all the mod cons of a new build property. The cottage was clean, spacious and tastefully decorated. Some lovely touches make this property a premium stay including a log burner (not that you need it as the underfloor heating makes it very toasty), gorgeous walk in shower, a large kitchen and a handy utility area. Rosie the owner was very welcoming and was happy to answer any questions and provide local knowledge. This is a dog friendly property and my dog was well catered for with towels, bowl etc. The property is set in a very peaceful hamlet with lovely views and access to walks. It is conveniently situated for beach walks along the Northumberland coast and is only 10 mins drive from Alnwick. There are also some lovely forest walks nearby at Thrunton Woods. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for quality accommodation in a peaceful setting with convenient access to outdoor activities and local towns.

Lovely cottage, great welcome, lovely location

Very well equipped cottage with everything you need. Beautiful view across the valley from the living room and the patio. Peaceful location in a very small village, with a (ruined) castle and 11th century church but no shops. Welcoming and hospitable hosts. Lots to do in the area. Can't think of anything
