Well House

"Just wanted to say thank you for arranging for us to stay in Well House. The house was fabulous. From the welcome pack, to the basket of logs, to the dog dishes, to all the useful things in the kitchen. The crisp cotton bedding, the fluffy white towels, the shampoo conditioner and shower gel. There was everything that we could want or need. What can we say about the beds… heaven… the most comfortable beds ever. The location, the friendly villagers, the church next door, Flodden Monument. The housekeeper. I could go on, the cottage was perfect. Thank you."

"We had a lovely stay at Well House, Branxton. The cottage was beautifully decorated & very comfortable, & had just about everything we could need. It was also extremely clean, which was very much appreciated in the current climate in particular. The garden was a good size & was lovely to sit out in. And indeed it was very secure for our dog, which was reassuring. The cottage’s location, near the Flodden Battlefield was a particular treat for my husband who is passionate about history, along with the church which was relevant to the battle as well & this was only topped by meeting the local historian in the village one day who was supposed to be doing a specific talk & walk round the battlefield. There was no grill pan in the cottage to start off with, but after a phone call to the housekeeper, one was supplied the next day which we were very grateful for. We would highly recommend staying at the cottage & would love to return one day. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay."

"We had another wonderful holiday in beautiful Northumberland and ‘Well House’ was a fabulous, cosy cottage - it’s always a real treat to stay in “Crabtree and Crabtree’ properties which are so luxurious!"

"We had a brilliant time at Well House in Branxton last week. It is a beautiful house in a beautiful location with everything you could wish for. We were cosy and comfortable and felt very safe in terms of Covid 19. We loved exploring different parts of Northumberland and crossing the border into Scotland. We loved St Abbs and we had not been there before. We will most definitely be using your services again."

"Excellent cottage, had everything - large comfy beds, fluffy towels and small things that make the difference."

"We loved our stay at Well House. Great location for both the Northumbria National Park and the coast. But the gem we didn't expect was being beside the Flodden Battlefield. We walked up there with our little dog up to 3 times a day, first thing, sunsets and once even in between. My son is doing History A level and has studied that battle. It was beautifully presented and a great easy walk with stunning views. The house works well and is well equipped."

"Cosy, characterful, spot on. Thank you to the owners, we had a brilliant long weekend, a regular re-union with a university friend and our families. The house was spotless and warm on arrival. It was perfect size for us, we have had bigger before, and grander, but we all felt this was pretty much perfect. It is an old property and the renovations inside have not spoilt the character, it has been done very sympathetically. Very cozy lounge with wood burner. Great kitchen, sundrenched from the south, with simple refrectory table for all meals. Overall delighted and absolutely recommend this fine cottage."

"We had a fantastic time at the cottage. It was in a superb location with plenty of places to walk the dog. The cottage was very well equipped and the beds were super comfy. Would love to return in the future."

"Well House was a beautiful cottage and we had a great time. Well equipped and furnished. Just wish we could have stayed longer!"

"Superb property with lovely touches, perfectly hosted the special weekend for grandma's birthday. Thank you."

"We had a wonderful time and Well House was just perfect. We really appreciated the extra details such as the lovely hamper and all the Christmas decorations. This was the second Crabtree & Crabtree property we had rented and we are already thinking about where next."

"We had a fabulous family weekend at the house. We all thought that the house was welcoming, cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. Our party age range was from 10 months to 84 years so it was both child friendly and oap friendly! Thank you for the excellent service from your office, much appreciated!"

"We had a lovely stay at Well House thank you. One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Brilliantly equipped in the kitchen and really nicely decorated throughout. Excellent service received from Crabtree & Crabtree and would definitely use again."

"We had a wonderful time at Well House. The cottage is beautiful and in a stunning setting; a perfect place to explore the lovely Northumberland coast and Scottish Borders. We loved everything at Well House, the cosy log burner, the hamper with lots of treats, the comfortable beds and beautiful decor. A special thank you to the housekeepers and the owners for thinking of everything we might need on our family holiday; and thank you to Crabtree & Crabtree for the seamless booking process. This is one of a number of Crabtree & Crabtree properties we've stayed in and we've wanted to live in them all! We will be booking again soon!"

"Just wanted to pass on that we had such a wonderful stay at Well House. Such a beautiful cottage in a beautiful location to explore and just sit in front of the fire with a glass of wine! Every little detail in the house was perfect and it was so well equipped. We go away as a family at least once a year to a cottage and would definitely stay here again and as always Crabtree & Crabtree were faultless."

"We loved our stay at Well House! Everything we could possibly need was in the property! Thank you for the lovely hamper when we arrived. We will definitely be booking through Crabtree & Crabtree again."

"We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the property. Loved the décor, very comfortable beds and house extremely well equipped (even plastic picnic items provided which we used). Couldn’t fault it really. We would go there again."

"We had an excellent stay at Well House. Very clean, warm and lovely bed linen and towels. The instructions, response to emails, admin was excellent."

"We were very happy with the whole experience of renting and staying in Well House. We found nothing to fault and felt 'at home' within minutes of entering the property. It is one of the very best of many dozens of cottages with have rented over the years, in the UK and Abroad. We would definitely recommend both the cottage and Crabtree & Crabtree to anyone and will rent any future Northumberland cottages through the company."

"We really enjoyed our stay and everything was great. We loved the house and the fantastic welcome hamper. It was clean and welcoming. Great to have proper feather duvets and pillows and great to have two double rooms with single beds so everyone had their own beds."

"Well house is a very central location for visiting Northumberland attractions. Very comfortable, spacious, tasteful house. Welcome basket is the icing on the cake. Very comfortable beds. Thoroughly recommend!"

"We had a great time although we were so lucky with the weather. Sunshine most days. Well House is quite idyllic with its peaceful location. It is cosy and comfortable and fantastically well equipped, a real home from home. We were out and about quite a lot introducing our friends to the glories of Northumbria as they had not visited there before. Needless to say they were enchanted. I think our most memorable moment was on our return from the Farne Islands being escorted back to Seahouses by a pod of dolphins. Many thanks for a great holiday."
