    We stayed in twin room as was thr only one available was nice & clean & met all our requirements but was fairly small would like to stay again in one of the other rooms!

    Stayed here with our Cockapoo Lola and the owners couldn't do enough for us (and for the dog!) They were so friendly and attentive and really made our stay special. Breakfast was amazing & they cattered very well to my vegetarian needs. The little compote breakfast starters were especially amazing! The 2nd night we stayed we had a takeaway and the owners set us up in the breakfast area, put on some nice background music on & even made us a beautiful extra chili pickle (was so nice!) We then had some drinks outside and watched the sheep & the sunset. Was a really nice evening & definitely recommend this as good option for the evening if you stay.

    Perfect cosy little cottage with fabulous hosts

    With it being an old cottage, lots of creaky floorboards is the only thing I could mention if forced too to find something negative.

    The cottage is absolutely beautiful and nothing is too much trouble for Shaan and Sef to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The little touches are just amazing, nail polish remover was put in our room for my partner as they knew we were attending a wedding. Views out of the bedroom to fields with sheep was lovely to wake up to. Breakfast was superb with some bonus fruity granola. Looking for an excuse to come stay again!

    It was all perfect - I know they are redoing the bathroom but it would be good to have a small stool or table in there to put washbags on!

    Great little B&B with first class service. Really comfy bed so a great nights sleep. The breakfast was wonderful and our hosts were so friendly but professional. We stayed 2 nights for a nearby wedding and it was perfect.

    A lovely little bolt hole conveniently situated just off the A1

    Our divan base had been placed across the room with the mattress the opposite way, this made sleeping quite uncomfortable. We did highlight this and they said they would change it. Very creaky floors, but that's to do with the age of the building.

    The renovations Shaan and Sef have undertaken are great, the property retains its character but with modern twists and quirks. They were also great at communicating in the lead up to our visit. Breakfast arrangements were top class, with a great variety of different options available. Great towels in the ensuite and comfy, cosy bedding. Lovely view over the fields.

    The hosts were the picture of perfection from the moment we entered Tumbleweed Cottage; welcoming, charming, enthusiastic and informative with unwavering attention to detail. All aspects of a stay were given the utmost consideration, from in-room snack and tea bar to a full-variety breakfast, including catering for allergens and my fussiness! The room was modern, clean and comfortable. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

    No complaints, it was perfect.

    A beautiful large cottage in an ideal location. The room was a good size with modern, clean and tidy facilities. Breakfast was delicious with a great variety of options. Great amount of private parking (off the road) right outside the property. The hosts were so welcoming, kind and caring. I highly recomend staying here. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

    The postcode quoted on the website I booked through took me to a place about 2 miles away. I had to phone the cottage owners to find a route to them.

    Breakfast was superb. The hosts were amongst the best and most friendly I have encountered in my many travels. They have only been running for 9 months but they are doing a great job.

    Nothing, was just what I needed.

    Shaan and Sef have put their heart and soul into creating a welcoming and comfortable place to stay, I was there for one night on a solo roadtrip to the north east (location was perfect halfway point between my home and destination). Couldn't believe how peaceful it was just a few mins from the A1. From the initial communications through to some really thoughtful gestures while I was there - including recommendations for dinner when I arrived and a walk before I hit the road again - everything I experienced made me want to come back again. My en-suite room was very comfortable and well-equipped, extremely clean and with little touches you'd expect in a boutique hotel. And the breakfast offering was great (far more than I could manage!). But I have to say that the biggest assets of Tumbleweed Cottage are its caring and friendly hosts who work hard to look after their guests.

    Not a big deal bit the ceilings were a little low! I am 6'4 and could just stand up in the room. It's not unusual when I haved stayed in cottages though - it keeps it cozy. Probably not ideal if you're 6'5 or more.

    Everything was amazing! The beds were comfy, the hosts were welcoming and generous and the price was brilliant. Honestly the hosts couldn't do enough, I even got some delicious home made chilli sauce from them when I got my takeaway dinner which was kindly collected from the door and brought to my room! I have never stayed anywhere where the hosts have been so great!
