Excellent property, so clean and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed coming back to a cosy cottage after a day out exploring a beautiful are.
This cottage is delightful. We found it very clean, comfortable, well equipped and quiet yet close to local amenities. We enjoyed a very peaceful stay..

Excellent cottage, plenty of space, very clean and in a lovely village with a nice pub 100 yards away. We went with a friend so the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms was ideal, it has a wow factor. The cottage is in a good position to visit all the surrounding attractions. Thank you to the owners for a very enjoyable holiday.
We were very happy with the cottage, our only criticism is that we would have appreciated the towel rails to be on. In the information book it said the heating control was pre set & was not to be readjusted, baring in mind the week we were there, the temperature was 10 to 12 degrees.

A lovely cottage in a great village. Had a lovely comfortable stay in Hemmel Cottage. It was spotlessly clean with everything you would need when self catering. Very peaceful and central for visiting Northumberland. Thank you for the wine and biscuits. hope to return next year.
Hemmel Cottage is a wonderful barn conversion that is set in the really peaceful village of Chatton. The cottage is so homely and equipped with everything you might need. Of note was just how clean annd tidy it was on anrrival. Its location is perfect for accessing all of Northumbrias amazing sites. It was our third visit and we will be returning next Spring.

The property was immaculate, the single beds room a bit cramped. I suffer from hip problem and found getting into shower in bath difficult, this is not a reflection on the cottage ,Im speaking from my point of view. I would recommend this property ,the whole collection of accommodation was superbly maintained.Thank you
This cottage fully lived up to its description. It is extremely comfortable, warm and well equipped. Its location is quiet and peaceful. The ideal setting for a refreshing break. The beauty of the area speaks for itself.
Excellent, wellmanaged and spotless property containing everything you could need. Everything was of top quality and a credit to the owners. Slight niggle was that there was a high step in corridor between living and sleeping areas. A grab rail was provided but two more shallow steps would be an advantage. On the same lines, settees were a bit low for us. These niggles did not interfere too much with the beauty of this wonderful cottage. It is definitely one of the best we have stayed in. Thanks to the owners for the wine and shortbread which was waiting for us on our arrival.
Hemmel Cottage exceeded expectations. The living area was more spacious than in the photos. The furniture and fittings were first class and it was very well equipped. This was much appreciated. We loved the artwork. We enjoyed sitting in the garden in its peaceful surroundings. Thank you.
This is our second visit to this cottage and we really enjoyed it. It is well equipped, it is situated well for visiting everywhere in Northumberland, The local pub is friendly and our stay was just what we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely place with plenty of comfortable facilities and great local pub
This was our third visit to Hemmel cottage. It is a very clean warm and well equipped holiday home set in a quiet location but within easy reach of the coast and many places of interest.
Hemmel Cottage really is a wonderful property. Set in a wonderfully peaceful village in an ideal spot to access everything Northumberland has to offer. The cottage is tremendous. Finished to a high standard with everything you may need. It really is a credit to its owners. About things you may already know The fridge door may need adjusting and the rubber seal on main kitchen sink plug is missing. There was also a couple of sticky residue marks on the carpet behind the entrance door. Overall, a wonderful holiday property. It was our second visit and we will be back next year.
We had a fabulous stay at Hemmel Cottage. Instructions on how to get there & key collection were excellent. As soon as you opened the front door & had a look around you could see it was exceptionally clean, comfortable & well decorated.There were some lovely touches eg the Christmas tree & decorations as we were there just after Christmas until just after the New Year. The welcome pack of Cava, shortbread & milk was a very nice touch, thank you.The beds were very comfortable & the X2 bathrooms were very useful with there being X4 adults. There was plenty of storage in the bedrooms for your clothes etc. The kitchen area had plenty of equipment for cooking meals . The lounge area is lovely & relaxing with comfortable sofas. There is adequate room for X4 adults. At night it is dark but there are sensor lights & torches if you did not want to put the light on so all bases well covered. Lovely garden at the back & the X2 parking spaces were so useful. The cottage is well positioned for exploring Northumberland & the Scottish Borders. It is also in a quiet position. We would highly recommend & would love to return in the future. Thank you for a fabulous stay.
Love this cottage. Always clean and well equipped.

A beautiful cottage in a convenient location for the many attractions in the locality. The owners provided a very thoughtful welcome gift of wine and biscuits for our stay. A spacious lounge and kitchen for the size of the property. The provision of an en suite for the main bedroom as well as the bathroom for the other bedroom is a real bonus.
Edward
We had a nice holiday. Very cosy cottage suitable for exploring Northumberland with easy parking and garden area. Local pub selling good food. Would definitely stay in this cottage again.
A perfect cottage, the owners have thought of everything to make the stay comfortable. We had a great week sight seeing and it was great to come back to such a lovely cottage
One of the best holiday cottages we have stayed in for comfort and quality of appliances quiet yet only short walk to a nice pub serving good food and beer. And helpful owners
The property was comfortable and well furnished. Good off road parking. The outside furniture was past its best with the wooden furniture needing attention. The front door had problems and also the outside light at the front was not working. These are only small issues which are picky and did not at have any detraction from a great week
Very comfortable stay. Lovely clean cottage. Everything we needed. Thank you
Quentin
The property is well located to explore Northumberland. The kitchen is well equipped and lounge comfortable to sit at the end of the day. There were 4 of us at the property and whilst the master bedroom and bathroom is very nice, the other bedroom with the twin beds is rather small and there is little space for luggage. We had our case on the chair with most of its content left inside as the wardrobe drawer was already full with possibly bedding. There is only one bedside cabinet shared by the two occupants, so I had to put reading glasses, water, jewellery on the floor..Also the single bedside light did not provide enough light for both occupants to read. Outside the property there are two loose paving stones, which are a trip hazard..
Great cottage in a peaceful location. Ideal for visiting inland Northumberland, coast and also Scottish Borders. Cottage had everything we needed. It was a good size for two is us and would be fine for two adults and two children but think it would be a bit tight for 4 adults. Living room has two comfy sofas and the kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. The bedrooms are both a good size with plenty of storage. The master bedroom is quite dark, due to there only being 1 small window. However, the lack of natural light was compensated for by the fact there is plenty of lightslamps in the room! The ensuite bathroom would benefit from some more storage, other than a narrow glass shelf above the toilet there was nowhere to put toiletries and the same applies in the shower, which was big enough to have a shelf or shower tidy installed. The shower was one of the best Ive used in a holiday cottage for both power and hot water! The cottage is in a little complex and was very quiet and the garden, although smaller than it looked on the photos, was an advantage and was quite private. We used the local pub, the Percy Arms for drinks and food and would definitely recommend for a meal! Overall a great cottage in a good location. Would definitely recommend.
Lovely cottage with everything to make it a home from home.
Debbie
Lovely cottage in very peaceful surroundings and a good location for exploring the area. Cottage has a real homely feel, is well equipped and most importantly, the beds are comfy. Would not hesitate to rebook if revisiting Northumberland.
Christopher
Great cottage. Well presented with all the amenities kitchen etc we neededed. Very comfortable. Would come again.
Had family with small grand children nearby so needed a bolthole to come back to for wind down and peace and quiet. We found it. Pity we only used it as a b and b but evrything was there, comfort, log fire etc. Great property beautifully furnished. Would love to return for a proper break away a d make full use of all that was there.
Jennifer
Lovely cottage, layout is great, great location, warm and cosy. Quiet and peaceful. One little recommendation as it is very dark, a must for amazing night skies, a torch or sensor lights in bathroom and ensuite at night would be useful to avoid putting light on for anyone needing night visit
Gillian
A wonderful stay at Hemmel cottage a beautiful place with everything you need. Plus parking for 2 cars . We can recommend staying here , Chatton is a lovely village and The Percy Inn is a lovely country Inn with good food and only across the road
A delightful and well maintained cottage with everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay towards the north of Northumberland. Being just 5 miles from the A1 to the East and the same distance to Wooler to the west made it a convenient spot from all our outings.
Excellent cottage in a nice village with. great pub within 5 minutes walk. The cottage is ideally located to explore Northumberland. Alnwick is only 20 minutes drive away. Edinburgh is only 90 minutes drive. The cottage is very light and modern and had a quiet, south facing garden. Lovely bird song was a bonus..
Kathryn
Really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return. The cottage and village a delight to be in.
Davina
We have just returned from a great week in Hemmel Cottage. ..the cottage was spotlessly clean, had comfortable beds and all the facilities were amazing and modern and having two parking spaces was ideal. We highly recommend this amazing convenient cosy cottage and appreciated the owner leaving us a welcome gift of milk, wine and delicious chocolate biscuits...thank you! We also had a couple of very nice meals in the local pub 2 minutes walk away, with friends. We would not hesitate to return in the future thank you so much. Davina and Geff Glover from Kent.

Beautiful holiday cottage with everything provided. Best quality fixtures and fittings and good heating system. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone. Pub in village of Chatton The Percy Arms was very good value. Would.love to return.
An absolutely terrific cottage situated in a really beautiful location. Everything about the cottage spoke of the owners attention to detail. Chatton village itself was wonderfully quiet, yet had the Percy Arms pub for breakfasts, dinner and drinks. And there was even a quaint post office and village shop. As for the cottage, it was great to have 2 parking spaces right next to the cottage. The cottage garden was very private. No issues with accessing the cottage keys on arrival. Inside the cottage we were surprised at the real quality of the place, yet so homely and quiet. Everything we might have needed was there. We highly recommend Hemmel Cottage and hopefully we will be returning next year.
Had a very nice stay and would recommend the property easy access to the towns ... Had a very nice stay and would recommend the property easy access to the towns in the area, pub and local shop about a minutes walk Barbara Atkins
This is an excellent cottage in all respects. Comfortable, clean and well appointed, conveniently located for visiting the attractions that the area has to offer, and very close to the local pub, which serves good food and ale.The welcome gifts were much appreciated. One to return to.
Jacqueline
Second visit and again did not disappoint. Spotless cottage. Perfect location to have peace and quiet but be a few mins in car to coast, so really is best of both worlds.
We have had an incredible stay at this beautiful, clean and cosy cottage. We were really grateful for the cot being set up on arrival and the use of the high chair as well as the milk, wine and biscuits. A brilliant location where we hope to return to. Thank you very much.
