Monthly Rentals in East Lilburn

Absolutely wonderful stay in Swallow Cottage, spacious and well appointed rooms, bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen, looking out over the fields and hills. Lots of wildlife around the place and chickens on site which our eldest boy loved. Harvest and Dave were great hosts who were very responsive and helpful. The home made cake on arrival was a lovely touch. The cottages are in the middle of rolling fields but near enough to lots of places within 40 mins in beautiful Northumberland. We even caught the train to Edinburgh one day from Berwick(1 hour door to door). One of the best places we've stayed and wouldn't hesitate coming back.

What a lovely cottage! Julie and Nigel's cottage is a real home from home, and it matches the photographs perfectly. Thoughtfully decorated, and made to feel homely with blankets, pictures, books etc. Homemade bread and delicious muffins, plus milk and tea and good coffee were most welcome. I appreciated the use of Eco friendly cleaning products and shampoos etc. Comfortable bed with cotton duvet cover and comfy pillows. Big, fluffy towels were great. There are maps and suggestions of places to visit and eat. Julie sent me some recommendations too which were helpful. Friendly neighbours who are keen to share information too. It is perfect for two people - and our dog was made ever so welcome too. Julie and Nigel were responsive to messages right from booking to the end of our stay. Thank you Julie and Nigel for letting us stay in your lovely home.

We stayed here for a few nights to celebrate a 60th birthday, and what a treat it was! A genuinely magical property featuring it's own castle at the bottom of the garden, private, quiet, and surrounded by a fairytale landscape- there is a monster redwood type tree by the back door and a stream running right past. The dog and I loved running in the castle grounds each morning, made even more special by the fact the place is closed to the public over winter- so naturally we ran the main driveway each day pretending we owned the place. The main heat source is a magnificent fireplace- it looks preposterously stunning, but if you are unused to rattling around in a chilly castle and, like us, shamefully deficient in the dark arts of fire making, it may be worth getting a few tutorials ready to go- though there are also a couple of mobile heaters and an electric blanket, which helped out immensely. Plenty of plug sockets around too, quite handy for plugging things in. 10/10 will castle again!

absolutely fantastic stay. lovely hosts always willing to help. fantastic surroundings, looked even better than the pictures! lovely rustic charm and fantastic fire place. cannot recommend enough. incredible value! Will certainly stay again.
