First visit here and it won't be the last. Millside is in an excellent location for the town. Close enough for convenience but still very quiet with 2 parking spaces out front. The interior is much better than the photographs show with 3 bedrooms (very comfy bed in the double), good size bathroom upstairs and a bonus downstairs toilet. The living room is very spacious and has comfy seating and it also has a well equipped kitchen too. Good outdoor seating too. Would definitely book again. Morpeth is a great place to stay.

We had a brilliant fortnight in Northumberland. We stayed in Morpeth last year too in another lovely house. As you can see by my stars everything was ideal for us. It's a beautiful area & we enjoyed visits to museums, Hadrians wall, boat trip around the Farne islands, Durham Cathedral & Bishop Auckland.We did have one issue that no post was delivered to the house. Due to the council elections we had ordered postal votes. This has not yet been resolved with the local office & we would appreciate a response as we've booked again fir next year.
