Perfect getaway

Cottage is perfectly located in town centre but very quiet and peaceful within an enclosed courtyard. Rothbury has a lot to offer, great shops, food, pubs, and beautiful walking and cycling nearby. We were comfortable and felt very much at home here.

We had a wonderful week staying at Conway House. The location was perfect for exploring Northumberland and the house had everything we needed. Peter, the owner, gave very clear instructions and also recommended some things to do in the area. Would definitely go again.

Great cottage in lovely village

Well equipped cottage, tucked away behind the high street. Cottage was very clean on arrival. Ideal base for visiting some beautiful beaches and exploring nearby towns with walks straight from the door. Rothbury has everything you could need, co-op, a number of pubs, the best toy shop in the world (according to my youngest) and a host of gift shops. Would definitely recommend a stay here, the owner was very helpful with suggestions of where to go before we arrived.

Rothbury

A good sized cottage for 4 adults with a well equipped kitchen and large bathroom. Fast broadband. A secluded courtyard and quiet spot despite being close to all amenities. An excellent location to explore surrounding countryside, coastline and golf courses.

Lovely cottage in the centre of Rothbury

The cottage and Rothbury were both perfectly placed for exploring the Northumberland. We enjoyed walks straight from the door as well as exploring the coast and Vindolanda. The cottage, which is in the centre of Rothbury, but tucked away and private, was comfortable and cosy. Thank you Peter for the excellent directions and information on the area.

Winter Break

We had a lovely few days in this warm and comfortable cottage which kept out the Northumbrian winter. The living room was a great place to shake of the rain and cold, especially with the open fire. The bed was incredibly comfy and the large bathroom was spotless and always felt warm. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Rothbury or who would like a base to explore Northumberland.

Lovely cottage

Great location, lovely cosy cottage. Parking was easy, shops and places to eat easy to find on foot. Well equipped kitchen. You'll really love it!. Only negative points are that the shower floor is somewhat disconcerting, it is springy! And there was only 1 half full toilet roll in the bathroom!
