Burnhill Hishope Reviews

Paul
Everything was excellent and exactly as it was advertised, would flight recommend this cottage.
Donna
What a beautiful cottage with a generous size hot tub. Had such a relaxed holiday - a real hidden gem of a place with very personal touches. Loved every second and would definitely recommend.
Gary
Wonderful stay in very relaxing surroundings. Cottage is presented immaculately and is very cosy with the underfloor heating and log burner. Great facilities and spotlessly clean throughout. Hot tub was fabulous and great that it was in a private area. Surrounding area was lovely to explore, we had a nice (but windy) walk with our dog along DerwentRead more Water. Would highly recommend a stay here Hide
Carl
Beautiful cottage in a wonderful peaceful location. Well equipped and a very welcoming owner, made to feel very much at home. Felt like being in the lap of luxury.
Alex
Our second visit. Lovely cottage and hot tub. Good access to Waskerley Way for a walk and a pub meal in nearby village. Were already planning our next visit!
Judy
Beautifully presented cottage, fully equipped with modern appliances. This was our second visit and it was just as good as the first. We use 3 of the cottages for a family get-together, meeting up in the largest property with our own food for meal times. It is a great quiet place for meeting up and spending time together, sharing the hot tub from oRead morene of the cottages. Hide
Sue
What a wonderful place to stay, absolutely perfect for our needs. Quiet location, fantastic hot tub with our cottage which had everything we needed. Great host too, very friendly & helpful. Brilliant little shop which came in very handy after getting back from doing the Great North Run when I needed chocolate! Would definitely recommend staying herRead moree, would be perfect for families wanting a big get together as you could rent the whole complex & have such fun in the big garden with your doggies!

Rob
We had a fantastic few days staying in Hishope Cottage its truly a beautiful area and place to stay with everything and more that youd need. Flowers and cakes on arrival really made us feel special and is a lovely welcoming touch. Jayne is not intrusive but friendly and helpful and we highly recommend this if you want to relax and unwind and enjoy nature at its best.
Maggie
The cottage was beautiful. Clean, well equipped, comfortable and with a large enclosed garden for the dog. Has a wood burner for if it's chilly, and a separate, private enclosed area for the hot tub. The owner was lovely, she lit the hot tub so it would be warm for when I arrived. The cottage is on a farm and there are sheep just the other side of the wall, my small dog didn't bother about them. There were lots of nearby walks for the dog, and places to visit. It's a very quiet, peaceful area.
Margaret
Before our journey we received a email from Jayne explaining everything we needed to know . On our arrival we were greeted by a friendly hello from Jayne.We entered the Hishope cottage and greeted by fresh flowers, slices of lemon cake ,tea,coffee,sugar and fresh milk great start. The cottage was clean,spacious well-equipped very comfortable. Share d large garden with seating . Private hot tub enclosed so dogs can be with you. Not far for shops and days out. We will return what a gem enjoy
Melvin

Marianunzia
We just had the best time. Place is lovely, hot tub was amazing and there were plenty of walks of all level, our old doggo really had a good time :) owners are lovely too! I'm already booking another weekend at the cottage!
Paul
The cottage was really cosy and well presented there was a lovely welcome pack with tea, coffee and homemade cakes. The owner was really friendly and met us on arrival and welcomed us to the property while offering any support over our stay. The starter supply of logs more than lasted the two nights we stayed and really provided a relaxing break. T he cottage had everything we needed and we would certainly book again with this cottage. Highly recommend!!
Heather

Susan
The cottage was very well equipped and comfortable. The starter pack was very welcoming and the honesty shop in the pod is a great idea.
Judy
Great property, well equipped and spacious with large garden for the dogs and children to run around in. Lovely for a family get-together. The wood-fired hot tubs were fun, even when the weather is a bit cooler. Quiet location. Highly recommended.

Sarah
Burnhill Cottages are great for a peaceful break away. Their location just out of Durham is a perfect base to explore the surrounding area.
Paul
Beautiful decor, extremely well equipped and the Hot tub simply made the stay perfect.
Andrew
Hisehope was comfy, homely, well equipped in a peaceful friendly environment, the cottage being on the same site as a farm did cause any issues (smells or noise) . It feels like you are miles from anywhere but there are lots of attractions within easy driving distance, Hexham, Adrain`s Wall, Vindolanda Roman excavations, Beamish, Gibside, just the few we visited. The log heated hot tub is easy to light and use, don't overheat it, it takes a long time to cool.
David
Lovely clean spacious cottage, friendly welcoming owners, large garden area for the dog, would highly recommend
Simon
A jewel. The unique history of the site is amazing. Then, the large lawn to rear and the hot tub make it all just worth it. Brilliant that what3words are provided to enable ease of locating the farm.
Mark
Fabulous holiday cottage in a peaceful countryside location but with lots to do and see within a short drive.
Julie
The property is equipped and furnished to the highest standards. It is very spacious and comfortable and the addition of the little shop to make emergency purchases was very valuable indeed, given its fairly remote (but beautiful) setting. Jayne made us very welcome and there was a hot tub ready to use on our arrival. The large shared garden was gr eatly appreciated by our dog and she even had some friends to play with on a couple of evenings. It is one of the best cottages we have stayed in.
Alison
Hishope Cottage is the nicest cottage we have ever stayed in and we have had many many cottage breaks before. The hot tub and 4 poster bed was wonderful. We had awful weather all week but the lovely cottage facilities made up for it. The big safe garden was a joy for our dog Molly. Thankyou Jane!
Eileen
One of the most enjoyable holidays in ages! The cottage was just superb, everything was there, so cosy, clean and welcoming. The little extras, flowers, milk and homebaked cakes on arrival. The hot tub was a welcome treat after a long day touring around the beautiful Co Durham. Could not recommend it highly enough.
Gina
Beautiful cottage in a very peaceful location. The hot tub was a big plus. We travelled each day to various places of interest which at most were only half an hours drive away. We would highly recommend the Lanchester Garden Centre (15 mins away) with its brilliant restaurant, and the Beamish Outdoor Museum, which was amazing and takes a good 4-5 h rs to get round (half an hour away). Newcastle Metro centre was also only half an hour away. Or you can just chill in the cottage and go for walks.
Kathryn
Such a wonderful, comfortable stay over Easter. We enjoyed many wonderful walks both from the cottage and nearby. Having never explored much of the North East before, we will certainly return!
G
Lovely clean, comfortable, spacious cottage with nice views and great gardens. The hot tub is a fabulous treat.
Susan

Joyce
What a delightful cottage, warm, comfortable and so welcoming. A very peaceful location. Made to be very welcomed with flowers, wine,chocs, shortbread and Christmas cake. Jayne is a very friendly person who cares about her guests. Hopefully will be able to return in the future. A lovely break. Thank you
Dominic
Had a lovely stay in the Hishope cottage. The cottage was clean and modern with a traditional feeling, everything you could ask for. Lovely private hotub to the left of the property. It can take 3 hours to heat in the colder months which could be an issue if you're hoping to jump straight in after a day out but it wasn't a problem for ourselves. We took our dog and there are plenty of areas to visit if you are outdoorsy. Definitely recommend and would definitely return.
Millie
The cottage was beautiful. Had everything you could possibly need for a short break away. The hot tub was lovely, just a shame it was so cold while we were there, so we only used it the once!!! Jayne decorated the cottage for our honeymoon, she went above and beyond! Very quiet, remote area. Ideal for escaping to the country and getting away from i t all! Had a beautiful walk with our dog, and went to a pub (10 min drive) for a lovely Sunday lunch. Would definitely book again x
Stephanie
Hot tub is brilliant, property is really clean, bed was really comfy. Nice and remote area. Had everything you could possibly need for a nice weekend away.
Peter
We have stayed in two cottages at Burnhill farm now and to us it is perfection. Opening the door is just like coming home. Everything you could need is supplied and all the extra little touches like the home made cake and dog treats make it that extra bit special. The views from the cottages are amazing, the dark skies on a night while sat in the w ood burning hot tub are beautiful.Jayne is a fantastic host and she is clearly passionate about making everything perfect, cant say Thankyou enough
Graham
Beautiful holiday home in a beautiful area, would definately reccomend and will be going again
Hazel
Everything you want and more, beautifully decorated, every amenity available, beautuful views and superb owners. Loved our break and highly recommend
