The Little Things We Love

I love the fact that 'dramatic entrances' can be made down the curving staircase into the spacious hall. Whole generations of family can gather there for drinks and games and photos.

Don't take our word for it...

Thank you very much. We were absolutely delighted with the house, it far outweighed our expectations. We know pictures don't always tell then truth but the pictures didn't do the house justice, it was fabulous. It was very well equipped and had luxurious bedrooms. The kitchen was fantastic with a plethora of equipment to enable us to carry out our self catering. We would give it 5 out of 5.

We had a wonderful time at Brunton House. The house had been decorated for Christmas and looked magical. The kids loved the house for hide and seek and I loved the aga. This was the first Christmas we had spent with family in England in 15 years and this was the perfect venue - thank you so much.

We would like to thank you all for making our weekend great, Crabtree & Crabtree communications were timely and helpful. We walked the coast on two very windy days and the wood fires were a joy to gather round in the evening. We would love to return, someday.

We had a fantastic stay at Brunton House. There was everything we needed! The bedrooms and bathrooms were all gorgeous. The house was perfect, so much space that we never felt on top of each other and the outside space was also brilliant. I can’t fault it and would definitely recommend it to friends & would love to go back!

We had a wonderful stay at Brunton House. It was a really beautiful house and everything was fantastic. Highly recommended.
Campbell family, 18th March 2024

Don't take our word for it...

I'd just like to say how much we enjoyed our stay at Brunton House last weekend. Extremely comfortable, very much home from home and the manager at Brunton House looked after us extremely well. All of you at both Crabtree & Crabtree and Brunton were extremely helpful, efficient and friendly and we will certainly be looking to come again.

Don't take our word for it...

Having just returned from a four-day vacation at Brunton House I would like to share that this is an idyllic holiday place. Not only does the house have a wow factor but there is nothing that has not been carefully considered in providing guests the best holiday experience . The small touches: Local honey, Northumberland tea, bacon and bread were just a small example. The team looking after the house, including cleaners were super kind and helpful. We will have family memories to treasure from our stay. You made this possible. Thank you to everyone. It was truly wonderful. I wish we could return every year.

Don't take our word for it...

I booked the house in January, looking ahead to my 70th birthday this year. I wanted to celebrate in a way I'd not done before, sharing a large space for a whole week with family and friends and Brunton House did not disappoint. What a wonderful place and in such a glorious setting, for 14 adults and three young children. Our Swedish son in law was bowled over by the house, the sheer quantity of castles to visit, ruined and lived in and the history all around. Fiona Burn produced a wonderful three course meal (with canapes while we drank champagne) on the evening of my birthday and Andy Smith from local bakery Bread and Roses went above and beyond with his bread delivery. The housekeeper, was very helpful in answering any queries I had prior to our stay and I have to thank all the team for plumping up so many cushions and the very comprehensive and generous welcome basket of goodies. Thank you all.
