Dovecote House situated in the heart of the market town of Wooler

Thank you for your lovely review however I was hugely disappointed to find you had taken a dog into Dovecote House. Dovecote isn’t and has never allowed dogs, this is due to a severe family allergy which meant that I couldn’t clean and had to get an emergency cleaner in to do a full deep clean which cost us time and money

Graham & Jenny Thank you for your review of Dovecote House however we are rather disappointed on your comments as when we spoke to you in person and asked how everything was you replied lovely and quiet, there was no complaints at all. On the house description it clearly states that parking is on the road at the bottom of our private path, this is not a busy road. When I emailed you all the information before your stay is clearly stated that there was no parking on the neighbours land, this is also in the information book in the house. You then proceeded to park on it which lead to embarrassment on all sides when the neighbours had to ask you to move. Our brick outhouse which is bin storage also stores two bicycles which many guests have used, in this instance we didn’t see any bicycles neither did you mention you had any so the key was not provided to lock it. As most holiday lets we are in a residential area so some maintenance on other houses can be expected at times. We share our terrace with the house next door and at the moment there is a patio being built and the garden landscaped in their garden, this is short term. As for the 3 metre drop this is in next doors garden and under no circumstances should any of our guests be on that land. Access to our house is by our private path however there is a shorter walk to the high street and it does go past our neighbours front doors, gardens and parking. It is a public footpath and has been for over 130 years. As with all old terraces you will find set ups like this across the country, it adds to the character. Thank you for letting us know about the frying pan and this has been replaced, we knew about the extractor fan build and we are waiting on a replacement. Thank you for the nice comment on how clean Dovecote is, I clean myself and take great pride in it as I’m sure all small family businesses do. As for the photos these were taken by myself and the house is exactly the same apart from the new beds and the coffee table that has been placed in the first floor sitting room. The bedding is different as it gets replaced every year. Nicola & Kevin
