Amazing place, Amazing location and amazing hosts

over the last twenty years we have stayed in numerous cottages in northumberland and the lake district. They all lacked someting and never really felt like home, that was until we discovered Hetto Byre! we never stayed anywhere as spotlessly clean, well equipped and hosts that care so much about your time there. We truly felt at home during our stay. Debs & Mike are the perfect hosts, so much so we booked our next stay as soon as we returned home. Lorna John Chewie & Luna

Such a wonderful place in a beautiful area

The house is beautiful and we had a great stay. We’ve been recommending the cottage left right and centre to friends. Only slight down side was the poor water pressure in the shower but otherwise a perfect stay.

Immaculate home from home accommodation in a beautiful setting.

We loved its ‘get away from it all’ location surrounded by beautiful countryside but not too far from the A1 for exploring Northumberland. The cottage was cosy and immaculate with absolutely everything we needed. Having a dog, we loved having our own pretty garden too.

The Idyllic Hetton Byre!

We had the most wonderful stay, once again, at Hetton Byre. This trip was our second in just under a year and it somehow managed to exceed the last one. Mike and Debs are so welcoming, friendly and honestly couldn’t do more for us.

Another amazing stay at Hetton Byre with fabulous hosts, we can't wait until our next stay

Perfect cosy cottage surrounded by beautiful countryside but within really easy reach of the coastline. This is our 4th time staying here we love it so much and can't wait until we're back again. The cottage is super dog friendly and has everything that you could need. It really is a home away from home. The owners Deb and Mike are brilliant, so friendly and welcoming and they are on hand for any queries and recommendations of places to visit. Could not recommend this cottage highly enough
