Great Location, Lovely Comfortable Cottage

Great Location in the middle of Norham, Just down the road from the castle and the excellent butchers R G Foreman & Son the other way. Easy to get to Both Berwick & Coldstream. The cottage was well appointed with a nice spacious bedroom with a comfortable bed and a great large Ensuite Shower room. The fully fitted kitchen provided everything needed and the living room had a comfortable sofa. The Whiskey was greatly appreciated. I will definitely use Border Holiday Homes again.

Lovely, well kept, comfortable cottage.

We spent 10 very enjoyable days in this lovely, well kept, comfortable cottage. Everything we needed was there. The village is ideally placed for exploring the Borders and has some lovely walks along the Tweed. Also the shops were excellent and the people welcoming and friendly. Christine and John made sure that we had everything that we needed.

Lovely cosy cottage

Turner Cottage is lovely and extremely well equipped. There is also a small conservatory and terraced patio, both with seating and a table, perfect for relaxing in the sun. Christine and John, who own the cottage are a lovely couple and very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay and are hoping to return next year. There are two pubs in the village which are both within walking distance and serve excellent food.

Cottage-Well located- in attractive village

Main concern is broken handrail on the couple of steep steps to back garden. Raised with owners who are attending to this.

Pretty cottage in great location

Just back from a 4 night stay - great little cottage with everything you need for a getaway. The village is perfect with two lovely welcoming pubs and lots of walks. Bamburgh, Holy Island and Berwick not far away either. The cottage itself was lovely - very clean and excellent standard. Finding somewhere to take two dogs isn’t easy but this was great!

A gem of a find

The cottage is so welcoming and cosy, Travelling up the owner left a lovely message saying if any problems to just ring them. It didn't feel like a holiday home as so many personal touches made it a home from home.

A perfect little cottage.

A perfect little cottage for two people in a lovely village with excellent facilities ie butchers, bakers, general store and pub. Very close to the paths along the Tweed and Norham castle. The cottage has a bright sun porch facing south off the kitchen which is lovely for sitting in. Everything is in very good condition and the owners are very welcoming and helpful.

A fantastic week in beautiful Northumberland

Turner Cottage is well-equipped and comfortable, in a very quiet and peaceful location, overlooked by the impressive ruins of Norham Castle. It is very dog friendly. Parking is on the street outside. This is the third Border Holiday Homes property we have stayed in; as usual, the arrangements were clear and straightforward. The village shop (just along the street) sells everything and the butcher (just a bit further along) is also excellent. We particularly liked their bacon and sausage rolls for breakfast. The bakery is only open part time; we would recommend ringing them up and placing an order to be collected during their open hours, to be sure of getting what you want. Norham is a good base for all sorts of trips and activities; we had no trouble at all finding lots of things we wanted to do. There are lots of suggestions in the visitors book.

Lovely quiet cottage

Lovely quiet cottage in a great location to explore the Borders. It has all amenities you need, with a great shower in the en-suite and log burner in the Lounge. Nice summer room that would be great when the temperature allows. Do not expect great phone signal, but WiFi worked fine, albeit TV a bit fiddly to get working. Local pub serves great food and drink and is well worth supporting, as is the local baker and butcher.

A comfortable short break

We were very happy with our stay at Turner Cottage. It was extremely well equipped with everything you could need and very cosy and warm. Just perfect. Our dogs loved their walks by the river and the villagers were all so friendly and welcoming.

Turner cottage, Norham

Great wee cottage, well equipped. Conservatory got very toasty one afternoon but in the house it was a bit cool at times, though we never lit the wood burner. Heating controlled remotely but you can ask for it to be adjusted. Norham a great base for exploring north Northumberland, and some lovely local walks by the Tweed though the path downstream of Norham is closed. Great butcher, and surprisingly well stocked little local shop in the village. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again.

Short Break

We had a lovely time in Northumberland the village was very quiet but a good base to get around the county. Berwick, Alnwick, and Bamburgh are a must to visit. We will definitely be back to visit Northumberland again.

Time to relax @ Turner Cottage

My husband and I enjoyed a short break at Turner Cottage over the Jubilee weekend ( to celebrate my retirement) and it was very relaxing. Comfy bed, great shower and really enjoyed just chilling out in the sun room and garden. When we arrived on Thursday evening it was great to join the locals queuing for fish and chips from the van that calls ( just on a Thursday) as that is the one evening that the local pub doesn’t do food. We had a great lunch there on the Friday and enjoyed the Sunday roast too, it’s great when you can get away from doing the cooking although there was a perfectly good kitchen at Turner Cottage. Our only disappointment was not being able to enjoy the gardens at nearby Paxton House ( as it was not suitable for my husband’s electric wheelchair) we did manage to have a nice lunch there though. All in all a great few days away and great service from Christine and John, who popped in to get us sorted with the television.

Midweek getaway

Lovely cottage and lovely village. Pictures don't do the cottage justice. Everything you need and very comfortable. The local pub the Mason arms sells lovely food and dogs are allowed. Castle a stone's throw away, which was very interesting. We went to the beach in Berwick as well, we all loved it. Long walk along the river is aust do. Didn't want to leave.
Stayed 3 nights in May 2022

About the host

Hosted by Christine & John, Border Holiday Homes

Host profile image
We had been searching for a suitable property in Norham to add to our family group of holiday cottages. When we saw Turner Cottage we knew it was just perfect for holiday guests

Why they chose this property

The cottage was in the ideal location as it was close to the River Tweed and to Norham Castle. It needed a lot of renovation but we knew that it would be loved by guests. the village has an unusual mix of shops - bakers, butchers, delicatessen selling fine wines and a country shop selling fishing equipment and clothing

What makes this property unique

It is in the centre of this friendly village and has an enclosed garden which is useful for guests who bring their pets
