Lou & Shaun were fabulous hosts that were very welcoming and provided a wonderful breakfast too... They were also very knowledgable about the area and also the history surrounding Cragend Grange and Cragside National Trust property it borders. The room and ensuite were very spacious and comfortable and a bonus was being able to see the Hydraulic machinery preserved that had powered both Cragside and Cragend in the 1800's.

All great, even the sun came out after storm Babet.

Wonderful location, exceptional room and excellent hosts. Loved hearing about all the history of the farms association with Cragside. (Breakfast great too.)

Our hosts were wonderful. Sharing their local knowledge freely, adding to the enjoyment of our daily excursions. The accomodation was spacious ,clean and very comfortable. The location was perfect for visits to many National Trust0 properties and Heritage Centres. Holy Island, Lindisfarne is only 50 mins away. An added bonus is that the farm has a rich Agricultural and Social History. A must vist.

The only slight criticism is the size of the TV in relation to the size of the room. It was really hard to read the channels from seated in bed so had to keep getting in and out to see. It’s a lovely large comfortable room and whilst the size of the television is a minor issue it would be our only criticism.

Beautiful location, and close enough to areas of interest such as Bamburgh and Alnwick. Recommended nearby pubs to eat would be Cook and Barker and the Northumberland Arms - both served excellent food (fabulous fish at Northumberland Arms and superb steak at Cook and Barker) - both more of a gastro style pub restaurant.

Lovely couple who made this spontaneous break extra special. This place is an absolute gem with great history, great for families or couples. A stay that won't be forgotten and will be recommended to family and friends. We already want to come back and explore some more. Thank you both very much.

Lou and Sean are very nice and personal hosts. Everything was perfect. The location offers manifold activities and the surroundings are outstanding but you need a car.

Nothing. A little fridge could be handy but it’s not a negative.

Had a wonderful time at Cragend Farm. The room was absolutely spotless and very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Would definitely visit again.

Beautiful location; very spacious and comfortable bedroom and bathroom. Lou and Shaun couldn’t have given us a warmer welcome, and breakfast in their charming kitchen was delicious, generous and fun.

The location is beautiful and having an opportunity to look round a working farm was really interesting. Lou and Shaun are friendly and welcoming but not intrusive. Breakfast was lovely complete with honey from the farm.

The room would benefit from a mini fridge.

Lovely place to stay with brilliant hosts. The breakfasts were incredible, with both cooked and vegan options available.

We stayed in the Armstrong Wing and it was very spacious with everything we needed for our weekend. Lou volunteered to show us the extended property in a detailed tour, which astounded us with the engineering history of the site.

Cragend is a lovely rustic farmhouse with an interesting history. The accommodation is brightly decorated and comfortably spacious. The hosts are welcoming and friendly and the breakfast is second to none. Set among rolling hills in the impressive Northumberland countryside, the property is easily accessible from the main road. Would definitely stay again.

Very friendly hosts, warm welcome when we arrived. Our room was very spacious and comfortable., with an extra large comfy bed. We had a huge bathroom with a bath and a shower. Toiletries and plenty of towels. The breakfast was fresh and tasty with good quality products. The location is only a few minutes drive to Rothbury.

I loved it. A working farm full of character sited on NT land. My room and bathroom were huge and great for me and my 2 spaniels. There was large paddock available to exercise the dogs. The owners were quite inspiring and very helpful, giving me good advice on the area and directions. Breakfast was excellent catering for my preferences

Room too hot at night - more ventilation would have been good

Good location for sightseeing and walking

WiFi was quick but would occasionally drop out for a minute or 2 every once in a while.

Best cooked breakfast we've had in a long long time. Homemade honey on toast was a nice touch too. Owners are lovely - made sure we had everything we needed and more, they even lent us their personal raincoats when we'd forgotten ours. Free coffee, tea and milk was topped up every day. Exceptional room and area. Can't rate it highly enough.
