Fell View Cottage Reviews

Emma
We loved staying here! The cottage was super cosy and beautifully located, with stunning views. The garden is fully enclosed, so our dog could run freely without worries. Delia was really helpful if we needed anything, but otherwise left us to enjoy our break. Perfect spot-peaceful yet close enough to shops and a pub. Highly recommend!
Emma
Having stayed in loads of cottages, this one definitely stands out. It’s spotless, beautifully set in a breathtaking spot with incredible views. Watching the birds, especially the barn owl hunting, was a real treat. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!
Emma Carter
We had a lovely stay at this place! The decor is really tastefuland all the amenities are spot on - they've clearly put a lot of thought into making sure everything's perfect. Plenty of space inside and outside, with a gorgeous enclosed garden to relax in. It’s in a peaceful spot, away from the hustle and bustle, yet still close enough for scenic walks along PenRead Morenine Way. The town is just a short walk or drive, with shops nearby. We loved it and will definitely return!
Emma
The cottage was so peaceful and well-equipped, with gorgeous views. We enjoyed the walks straight from the doorstep and relaxing in the hot tub after a long day.

We had a fantastic stay at Fell View! The location is truly unbeatable, with breathtaking views in the early morning that just took our breath away. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, cosyand had everything we needed for a comfy stay. It’s perfectly placed for exploring the Lakes, Hexham, or Newcastle. Alston is a charming little villageand we loved visiting the Angel Inn - you never know who you might meet! The local Spar’s butchers counter also had a great selection of meats. Would definitely recommend!

We had a lovely stay with our 9-month-old and pup. The house was super well equipped - comfier pillows and bed than ours at home! The kitchen had everything we neededand the decor was really pretty. The garden and terrace are stunning, with great views. Don't miss the chicken kebabs from the local sparand definitely visit Featherstone Castle for river swims. Thanks for a great holiday!

Great location, super clean, really welcoming vibe
James
We had a fantastic time at Fell View! The cottage was perfect for our family - including Coco, our furry friend. The finishings are top-notchand the enclosed garden with the hot tub offers amazing views from the raised deck. The location is so peaceful and surrounded by stunning scenery, making it a great base to explore the Lakes, Northumberlandand the Pennines. Honestly, we left feeling really relaxed. Truly a 5-star experience!
Emily
Cozy place with everything you need!
Emma
We stayed at this charming cottage in a lovely village and loved the cosy feel. The hosts really thought of everything, even the kids! The kitchen was fully equipped, so a roast dinner was easily doable. Everything was finished to a high standard, super comfortableand welcoming. We’re definitely coming back if we’re in the area and would happily recommend it to friends and family. Lovely place!
Emma Roberts
We absolutely loved this cosy cottage with its rich history vibe. It felt just like a home away from home, with stunning views of the valley and moors. The location was perfect for exploring-short walks into Alston and lovely trails nearby. Everything we needed was supplied, from comfy beds and fresh linen to well-labelled recycling bins. The garden was beautifully keptand the hot tub was such a bonus after a day out. Definitely recommend for a relaxing break!
Emma Clarke
Absolutely loved it, would happily return for another fantastic getaway!
Emma
We had a fantastic week in this charming cottage, tucked away on Alston Moor’s edge. It’s a perfect spot if you’re into walking and spotting wildlife - we loved exploring the area. Evenings were spent unwinding in the hot tub, soaking in the incredible views. A highlight was definitely the steam train from Alston - our little one was thrilled! The Lake District is just a short drive away, about 35 minutesand we enjoyed some lovely days there too. We’re already looking forward to coming back soon!
Emily
Honestly, the cottage was stunning and spotless, with a lovely fresh smell. We arrived and met the owner shortly after, who was super friendly and welcoming. We couldn’t find a single fault with the place. The only reason I’ve marked down the location a bit is because it’s a tad remote for us. Otherwise, I’d happily give it 10 stars for everything else! Would definitely stay again.
Oliver
We had a fantastic stay! The house was spotless and felt really modern, exactly as the photos showed. The owner was super friendly and even came to say hello when we arrived, which was a nice touch. The location suited us perfectly, with a handy Spar nearby that also has a local butcher inside-great for fresh sandwiches and jacket potatoes until late. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to anyone.
Alex
The cottage offers amazing views that really took our breath away! Everything we needed was waiting for us when we arrived - a real plus. The nearby Co-op, just a quick 5-minute drive, was a lifesaver since you're pretty much in the middle of nowhere. We’re definitely returning, no doubt about it!
