Snaptrip says
Old Farm in Northumberland is a deceptively spacious and well-presented cottage with excellent facilities, including warm bathroom floors and a generous welcome package. It has been appreciated by guests for its comfort and extra features, making it ideal for family gatherings. While most reviews are positive, there is a mention of cleanliness issues that could be addressed.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests have generally enjoyed their stay, but one review highlighted concerns with dust, dirty table mats, and debris under furniture, suggesting room for improvement in cleanliness.
There is insufficient information in the reviews to accurately assess the location, as there are no specific comments on the surrounding area or accessibility.
The cottage is praised for its large size, lovely furnishings, and warm bathroom floors, indicating a high level of comfort for guests.
Facilities are described as excellent, with a welcome package and quick response to queries. The property has seen updates in furnishings and decor, suggesting good maintenance.
The mention of a wonderful welcome package indicates thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, guests should consider this a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.
About this property
A former farm steading, the location is second to none situated between the A1 and the charming coastal village of Bamburgh. A short drive from the sandy beaches of Bamburgh and easy access to the Castle, Wooler and Alnwick.
Old Farm is part of a converted farm steading in the hamlet of Adderstone, near the village of Lucker. It is a charming stone cottage providing accommodation for up to 8 guests. It has level access, widened doorways on the ground floor, 2 ground floor bedrooms and a wet room, making it suitable for disabled guests.
Northumberland is steeped in history with many imposing castles to explore including Alnwick Castle made famous by the Harry Potter movies and the striking Bamburgh Castle built high on a rocky outcrop. The quiet lanes are perfect for cyclists and walkers to soak up the stunning landscapes and perhaps catch a glimpse of the remarkable array of wildlife including red squirrels, roe deer, wild goats, otters and black grouse.
Old Farm is a great option for a family or friends planning to get out and explore the Northumberland coast and countryside. Bamburgh is a 10 minute drive, and Alnwick, 20 minutes.

The house was deceptively large once inside, and all fittings and furniture were very lovely.
