The location was just right for a halfway stop on a visit to Scotland. A plus was that we were able to visit Bakethin Nature Reserve and Kielder Forest

Nothing

Outstanding accommodation, service and location. The pictures truly do not do the room justice. Immaculately clean, modern and comfortable facilities. The bed was very comfortable and we had a fantastic nights sleep. The staff were exceptionally friendly and hospitable. The breakfast was also of a great quality and the menu had something for everyone. The room was well supplied with towels toiletries, tea/coffee making facilities and had a smart TV. There was also an information sheet which provided recommendations on near by restaurants and activities. The B&B has an easily accessible car park and is situated nearby shops and a bus stop. We originally booked the B&B due to its close proximity to Kielder Observatory. However, we plan to book again in the summer for hiking due to how much we enjoyed our stay.

Not a bad thing to add! Truly wonderful stay, thank you.

This was our 2nd stay, and we absolutely love the place. Even with all of Bellingham loosing power and phone signals for about 18 hours, our stay at Fountain Cottage wasn’t spoiled in any way. Michael, Danielle and staff were amazing throughout. We were extremely touched with our little delivery and kind note left at our door the evening of the power cut. Breakfast was different but really lovely, it’s nice to see everyone pull together in such a beautiful community when things like this happen. Anyhow when we arrived home we were chatting about our next visit in 2026 but decided to book again for September this year.

Nothing.

Nicely decorated and very cosy. Bathroom was amazing including the big spa bath. Breakfast was 10/10! Big portions and alongside cooked breakfast had some cereal and fruit as options. Mattress was to die for! Really soft and comfortable. There was a box as you went up the stairs with some games you could take to your room,, so we had a fun time playing guess who! Really lovely stay and a really great price for you what you got. Would definitely recommend

only one radiator turned on - but tbh the room got hot REALLY fast so in a way, didn't need both on. Had some issues with the spa bath. Never used one before and sometimes some of the jets turned off and sometimes couldn't get back on. But was still enjoyable anyway. Pillows were a little bit hard but that's personal preference but didn't interfere with sleep too much.

Lovely spacious room with excellent facilities. Welcoming host. The breakfast on offer was more than adequate, nicely cooked and presented, although staff didn't seem prepared in time for the 08.00 serving. However, front of house was pleasant and helpful.

I understand that the cafe is "dog-friendly", and whilst this isn't a problem for us, not everyone likes to have a dog present whilst they are eating breakfast. Perhaps thought should be given to better segregation between guests and dog walkers at meal times.

We had an amazing stay, the room was incredibly clean, spacious and had a gorgeous bathroom and jacuzzi bath The staff were the highlight, though. The little things matter. We asked a question about a waterfall we wanted to see, and we had 2 staff members come out separately to help us. I am a picky eater, and wanted xyz to eat, not usually on the menu as such. But they sorted it for me as if nothing was too much trouble They also helped me with rubbish from my car, which I was cleaning out myself, and to my surprise, a lovely lady asked if she could help. I declined, politely, but it just showed how lovely the staff are Thanks for a lovely time!

Warm and cosy room on arrival. I was too late to get a cake and coffee in the cafe but sure made up for it the next day. Danielle and Michael do everything to accommodate your comfort. Later in the evening we had a bit of an issue with hot water. They were able to fix a solution with a spare room to enable a luxury spa bath. I get the feeling that firstly there is unlikely to be an issue but when faced with an issue they'll do their best to fix it.

Nothing to say here they are nailing good quality hospitality.

It was in a great location, the area was very quiet, the host contacted me with check in details which were very flexible. The room was spacious with 2 easy chairs that made relaxing after a long walk really comfortable. The bed was comfortable which made for a good nights sleep. The breakfast was lovely and the staff were very attentive, they even packed us a lunch for the next day’s walk which was just what we needed.

There was nothing we didn’t like.

The breakfast menu was great and was prepared and served well in the cafe below the bedroom. The bedroom and on-suite was very presentable, tidy, clean and spacious. The staff were friendly bur not intrusive. There were other food places in the town and the walk to the waterfall was amazing.

The car parking felt a bit vulnerable if you are precious about your car. We personally found the bed a bit soft. The location is on the street so when the window was open it was a little noisy with cafe guests sitting outside.

Prior to stay hosts were extremely helpful and responsive to messages, I was even contacted to ask if I was aware an event we were attending separate to the stay had been cancelled. On arrival we were met straight away at the door and taken to our room with no hassle. Rooms were beautifully decorated, cosy, warm and clean! Breakfast was beautiful with lots of choice and included in the stay! All staff were very friendly and helpful. Lots of amenities within walking distance too!

Nothing!
