Reviews
Property was well located for visiting hadrians wall. But their were a few issues we found aswell. Firstly we thought the property was tired and hadn't been looked after well and wasn't well reflected in the photos which seemed very out of date. Secondly the king size bed had old faded torn stained bedding and un-ironed. Along with this there was a second uncovered mattress put on one of the beds. Which we found out was simply from another property and because they had no were else to put it decided to chuck it onto the king-size bed which lead to a 3 bad night's sleep untell we were told the story and could take it off if we wish. Thirdly when we arrived the property had been cleaned but not to a great standard and we had to hover around ourselves so we felt comfortable (I would like to say we didn't ring the owner that night about the cleaning as we got in late and were tired from a long drive and didn't want to be disturbed). All in all I felt although me and my group had a good holiday the only point that let it down was the accomadation and wasn't worth the price paid.
Stayed here for a week, Clean well presented and very comfortable. Great rates and located at the edge of Haltwhistle so nice and quiet with a lovely stream at the side of the property. Friendly owner and would recommend.
A great place to stay, a lovely cottage.
Fantastic cottage in a great location with lots to do; we would definitely return.
We had a really lovely holiday in a beautiful location. The cottage was excellent; very comfortable and well laid out, perfect for our needs. Haltwhistle is the perfect place to stay and we will be coming back to Hollie Cottage.
Lovely cosy cottage. Superb location for exploring Hadrian's Wall
The local people were so friendly. Haltwhistle is a great town. The scenery in Northumberland is awesome and the air so clean. Last but not least our cottage, everything we needed was there and more, spotlessly clean and really comfy beds.
Beautiful location & comfortable cottage, nicely decorated and very clean. Lots to do in the area. Owner was very helpful. Would come back again!
We were met by the owner who had left us a bottle of wine and strawberries and cream as a welcome. The property was a good size for the four adults using it. It was all kitted out with everything one required. The location of the property was perfect for walking Hadrian's wall. There were also numerous other spectacular walks locally. The village of Haltwhistle was a small United Nations. We met and spoke to people from various parts of America, Holland, Germany as well as others from various parts of England. I would recommend the Black Bull pub in the centre of the town for a great atmosphere, different types of ales and good pub grub. The village has all the amenities you would require and there are plenty of takeaway shops nearby. The main town of Hexham is only 13 miles away if you require the major store chains, M&S, Waitrose, Tesco, Lidl, Next etc.
We had a lovely stay. The cottage is well positioned for walking and cycling and short walk to town and the cottage owner was helpful .
We loved the atmosphere, cosiness and location of the cottage. It was delightful.
Great location and a great location. Everything we could possibly need. The owner must take obvious care and pride with the property, ensured we had a lovely time!
Great location for walking and the military road trail.
Hollie cottage is in a great location and was well presented and clean. Everything was exactly as described. There was plenty of everything available. The dishwasher and washing machine were a bonus and the welcoming chocolates and wine were a lovely surprise.
Well furnished cottage with every perceivable item supplied.
We arrived quite late in the evening having had a long drive to get there and were very pleased with what we found. The cottage is kitted out to be a real home from home with every need catered for. The wine, chocolates, biscuits and milk were a really nice thought. Plenty of large fluffy towels, freesat tv, dvd player, dvds, books, log effect fire and comfy chairs to relax. The bed was extremely comfy and was hard to leave in the mornings. The area was stunning and even I managed a healthy walk each day. The food in the Black Bull is not to be missed as is the warm welcome :) I would definitely recommend this cottage. The landlady is very friendly. BTW the kettle is in the cupboard above the cooker :)
Great Location, immaculate inside with good facilities. Would visit again.
Although very modern in decor, Hollie Cottage is still a lovely cosy cottage set in an ideal location for exploring the wall. Overall good value for money. I would recommend Sykes Cottages to friends - the service is excellent.
Ideal location with lovely walks from the door and the burn close by. Very quiet but handy for the town centre and shops, buses etc.
The cottage was excellent in all respects, very well fitted out and the wine and chocolates on arrival a nice touch.
A lovely, cosy cottage in a great location with nice touches from owner. Haltwhistle is a really friendly place, we were made to feel welcome everywhere. There were also nice walks on door step.
The cottage was very well equipped there was everything that you could possibly need, which was excellent. The location was great, and made a good base for walking parts of Hadrian's Wall. The owner had thought of everything, and the chocolates, wine and milk in the cottage on our arrival were a really nice touch.
