Shared kitchen area was clean and tidy with the Lidl store nearby cooking via microwave was easy and straightforward.

The bedroom with en suite was clean also and very spacious with a very comfortable armchair and a comfortable bed also.

Instructions on how to get to the premises were perfect and accurate, even key codes worked with no issues.

There are shops near by and wifi is good, shower is excellent. Wasn't happy leaving my Van in public carpark as the property has no parking.

Good value for money - but call for directions!

The listing says free parking on site. In fact the property is down a pedestrian alley with no vehicle access - that said there is ample free off-road parking close by. Given it's location it's very difficult to find, the view of the property on the listing is only visible once you're inside their yard behind a locked gate - I drove up & down several times looking for the property. Once I spoke to the property it was easy enough to find, but you do need directions! All that said the bed was comfy, the shower excellent and the service friendly. Now I know where it is I would stay there again. (I didn't need it but there is a full kitchen available for guest use). Lots of take away, restaurant food and shops on the doorstep.

Lovely lovely stay! Eveything has been really thought out and comfy bed wifi assces to kitchen facillities so perfect for budgeting an over night stay and being able to take food with you rather than buying food in or staying at a hotel where they charge extra prices for somwthing like a pot noodle! Was so hand having somewhere to be able make food for our toddler as she can get unpredicatable as to when she hungry 10/10

Great Stay

This was a basic room and cheap but was comfortable and clean. You could not ask for anymore for the price paid.
Did not physically meet the owner but she was available via text for anything required - which we did not need.
Room had TV and fridge and their was a kitchen downstairs for our use.

Good stay

Good place to stay. Quite close to route of travel between England and Scotland. Aldi, Petrol station, washing machines, restaurants all around the accommodation. Excellent communication with Joanne for checking in. There is a handy small shared kitchen on the ground floor.

The property is clean, tidy and comfortable. The little communal kitchen area is a very good idea for making food or sitting in while eating a takeaway.
There is plenty of tea and coffee in the room, and also a little fridge for storing milk, drinks, food etc.
Have stayed before, hence why I returned again. It is convenient for many uses and close to the A1. There are local shops, takeaways and a petrol station all within walking distance.
The only negative I had, was that it was too warm. So, I had to turn all the radiators off in my room. The heating seems to be on constantly, or the thermostat is turned up too high.
If arriving in the dark, I would advise taking a torch, as the coded gate is in a dark alleyway, and it's hard to see the digits on the lock.

I needed only one night stay in Newcastle and found this property by accident after unsuccessful expensive attempts with Premier Inn and Travelodge.
Very-very happy! I had full instructions with the photos for check-in which was easy to follow. It took me only 20 minutes on the bus from the train station. Lidl is just across the road and the pub if you need, around the corner.
The room was very cosy, with huge bed, towels, fridge and plenty of tea and coffee.
Highly recommend this property, thank you

If you’re looking for a cheap, comfortable secret little bolt hole for one night to sort yourself before ‘moving on’ this is perfect. Don’t expect glitz n glamour but more than adequately suitable. FREE PARKING (not onsite but two mins walk) whats not to like about that…… NOTHING! Decent Fish.n Chip shop called Maguire’s with easy striking distance!💪👍

Good value no frills accommodation in a good locat

Good convenient accommodation for a short stay. Although fairly basic it was clean and had all the facilities needed. Given the price it was really good value. The location was good and close to a wide range of restaurants etc. The parking was very close but a clearer description of its location would be helpful

At first it was hard to find as its hidden behind a fence, but secure. We had to park in the chip shop opposite as there is no parking, the agent that gave us the keys and explained everything was polite and friendly. The room was clean. We would stop again as the price was reasonable and near to where we were visiting

Overpriced for what it is with no breakfast included, owners do not stay at cottage, they meet you in a chip shop car park to give the key to cottage, entrance down an alley!!!!, very bare room with painted walls.

Not what is says on the tin!

Arrived in afternoon greeted by friendly handyman, went out for tea and came back in dark , very different place! Not a lot of lighting in walk from unsecured carpark, about 60 yards, quite foreboding walking up alleyway. Wife tried to get a shower but water was scolding hot, could not get water any cooler, called handyman who came approx half hour later as he was having his tea! but could not fix , .nothing else was offered so no alternative but to have strip wash and wash hair in sink,not ideal when going on a night out! When I complained to the owner she offered us 50% off next visit , said won't be back for twelve months but had no reply. Needless to say we won't be returning

Good for the price

Good for the price, but I could hear everything the other guests did or said through thin walls. The TV noise was quite distracting. Can I suggest a small desk placed below the TV might help a lot of guests, and blackout curtains would reduce street light. I could not get on to the internet, and an alarm went off very nearby for some time.

Like a little flat with kitchen

Booked here 1 night to stay locally for business, it is more like a little flat than a cottage but with 3/4 rooms which all lock so self contained. Fridge in the room, cooking facilities in a shared kitchen and would be ideal for a group of friends I think who want a bit more freedom than a hotel would offer. The owner met me and showed me round etc. and all perfectly fine. Not 5* by any means but what I needed and good value.

A great little find

Went with friends for night away, this place has a great set up with lovely rooms and a kitchen seating area to socialise.
Only spoilt by visit to local pub (The Highlander) this is a den so do not visit had mobile stolen off of table and were pretty much forced out so locals could enjoy a lock in, avoid at all costs.
However do use the cottage its superb

The lodge is very nice, comfortable and a 1 minute away from the bus stop to major places, only make sure to pre-arrange with the house holder as there are no signs to direct you to the place neither any number or even small sign

Fullt godkänt

Lite svårt att hitta men när det väl var funnet så visade det sig vara helt ok. Bekväma sängar och bra varmvatten i duschen. Lite \"sköt-dig-själv-boende\" men det har jag inget emot. Nära till affär och ett stort shoppingcenter samt pub runt hörnet.
