Here are a few words from our past guests

We had such an amazing stay at The Old Workshop. Not only was the accommodation absolutely stunning the setting was so peaceful and gorgeous. We had everything we needed and more. The rooms were clean and had the most comfortable bedding and towels. The kitchen had every utensil and appliance needed. Our kids had so much fun running around the garden and Forest. Also such a beautiful town with shops and restaurants. The location was perfect for castle visits and day trips. Sally and Tim were very helpful and very responsive. Cannot wait to come back and visit again.

Faye, Surrey The Old Workshop, May 2023

Another beautiful stay in this fantastic place. We were blessed with great weather (except the night of our Kielder observatory booking, but still interesting). If we could pack this up and take it home ... but we can't, so will be back. 🙂

Mel, Gloucestershire, UK The Old Workshop, September 2024

What a wonderful creation you have achieved here. This is one of the finest places I have stayed at in many, many years. Thank you for the arrival goodies and your extended hospitality. I certainly made the right choice for being here for the National Cycling Hill Climb Championship yesterday.

Chris, Surrey The Old Workshop, October 2024

Fresh flowers, scones, bread, milk in the fridge, cookies, eggs plus honey. It's the small, warm touches of kindness and hospitality that made all the difference to us - ok and the most wonderful of cottages, set in green woodland that embraced us on our walks into Corbridge.

Chris & Sparky, Washington, USA The Old Workshop, October 2024

Thank you for an amazing stay. A truly exceptional home and by far the best accommodation we have ever stayed in, in the UK. We are all sad to leave.

Georgina The Old Workshop, August 2024

Hello, it's been perfect! The service, the cottage, the garden, the tennis court and everything this comes with. One of our most favourite places. Thank you for all the loving memories.

Tom,Caroline & boys, Amsterdam The Old Workshop, August 2024

Thank you for your warm welcome and hospitality. This week has been just what we needed - relaxing in such a beautiful spot surrounded by nature and so comfortable in the house. It's even better than we'd expected - photos can't do justice to the attention to detail and high spec finish throughout The Old Workshop.

Sue & Graeme, Bath The Old Workshop, June 2024

We have had a wonderfully peaceful few days in The Old Workshop. The eggs and honey were a wonderful treat. Our evenings have been spent wrapped in the blankets listening to owls and watching the stars whilst sat on the patio. Bliss!

Ann & John, West Yorkshire The Old Workshop, September 2023

What a gem of a cottage - just perfect/ We've stayed in numerous self catering properties both home and abroad but The Old Workshop wins! Everything and more was on hand. Thank you for all the wonderful and thoughtful touches of cake, honey, eggs, milk, coffee, tea etc, etc ...

Sally & Mark, Bristol The Old Workshop, October 2023

A truly wonderful place to stay! What a lovely home for a few days before Christmas. So comfortable and well equipped, we've loved staying here. So much to see too ... Corbridge is lovely and only a short walk away, and the Roman Wall and museums are great to visit. Also enjoyed our trip to the coast - Holy Island and Bamburgh - amazing. We'll be back!

Nick & Emma, Yorkshire The Old Workshop, December 2023

Thank you for a wonderful stay in this beautiful, cosy home. We really appreciated all the generous provisions on arrival. Our children were excited to see the 'secret' playroom and have made good use of the books and toys! We've enjoyed exploring Housesteads Roman Fort, Corbridge Roman Town plus Bamburgh Castle and the stunning beach there. We're sorry to leave such a peaceful location as we've felt so at home here.
