The Little Things We Love
The way that Hiddenhus cleverly blends intimacy with a sense of space, traditional stone exteriors with stylish contemporary interiors, and easy access to Berwick-upon-Tweed with the Northumberland coast.

A lovely property in a great location. Very peaceful and I'm sure the garden would be great to sit out in in the spring or summer. Well equipped and very clean with everything we needed. Very friendly and communicative hosts. We hope to stay again in nicer weather so we can enjoy more of the local walks and wildlife. Very convenient for Berwick which was a pleasant town and had a great M&S food shop. Close to some fantastic beaches. Even saw the Milky Way at night thanks to darker skies than we are used to.

A really lovely place to stay, one of the best cottages we have stayed in. A lovely welcome when we arrived - lamps on and soft music playing, as well as a really good welcome pack. It is beautifully decorated and comfortable, with everything thought of for a lovely stay. The bed is amazingly comfortable. Hiddenhus has a lovely garden which you can look out on and nice seating areas to use if the weather is good - unfortunately, it wasn't too great while we were there, but we enjoyed it anyway. The owners are there if you need them, they are a lovely couple. The cottage is well placed for nice villages, walks, village pubs, etc. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you

The owners keep Hiddenhus immaculate. We have just had our 4th visit and it's like coming home. Not just inside, the garden also is a delight. The wildlife it attracts is varied from pheasant and rabbits to all manner of birds; this time, we also had a sparrow hawk land in the garden; oblivious to our presence, it stayed for a while surveying prospects for dinner. We always enjoy the cliff-top walks behind the golf course in Berwick, the museum with its Lowry's. Watching the fly fishing at Norham and the honey farm near Hiddenhus.

This is our second visit to Hiddenhus, we knew immediately after our first visit last year that we wanted to return. It is a superb holiday cottage, well placed for all the attractions and it has everything you need. It’s been a very relaxing week and the weather has been kind to us. Watching the wildlife in the garden is wonderful. A big thank you for a wonderful stay. We hope to return.

Three weeks stay in the Autumn, one week in the winter, that means I’ll have to come back in the Spring! I love it here. Thank you for another wonderful stay.

A very, very special place. Arriving after a long day to find the lights on, inside and out, the house warm and welcoming was magical. Our favourite places during our stay were the walks at St. Abbs head, a morning walk to Duddo Stones and Cove harbour.

Hiddenhus is as perfect as its description and previous guest’s comments. It is ideal for a couple plus one child. The information provided is excellent as are the toys and games. The lovely and thoughtful welcome pack was very much appreciated. We will be back!

First the negative points - there are NONE! Hiddenhus is absolutely magnificent. This is our fourth trip to Northumberland and the best yet.

Our fourth visit to Hiddenhus - we have looked forward to it and it has not disappointed! We are planning our next trip already. We know that the Hus will be welcoming and super comfortable so we will be back soon.
Mr & Mrs Flood
Our fourth visit here and we’ve had a lovely week. Hope to return next year to our favourite holiday cottage.
Mr & Mrs Armstrong
Our fourth visit to Hiddenhus and once again we can confirm that this is the most perfect self-catering accommodation in what is one of the best locations. The owners continue to maintain the most excellent of standards.

Mr & Mrs Clarke
A wonderful week at Hiddenhus. We can’t fault this wonderful house. Thank you to the owners for such a lovely place for our week away from the stresses and strains of everyday life. A great walk from St. Abbs and around Holy Island but our favourite walk was around Kelso. The walk back along the river was beautiful. We had a lovely lunch at Atelier in Berwick - thanks for the recommendation! Overall, a wonderful week - so much we still want to see and do that we are already planning our next visit. Thank you.
Mr & Mrs Davies
A beautiful spot. The house and garden are faultless and beautifully designed. We especially loved the high viewing chair in the garden. We have had a wonderful week - not quite long enough so we will have to return for more. We were lucky to go to St. Abbs on a beautifully sunny day and it was stunning. There is a great walk down to the Tweed from the house and Kelso is also very well worth a visit. We will definitely try to return! Thank you so much!
Mrs Grove
Hiddenhus was as near perfect a holiday retreat as we could hope to find. The ambience, the furnishings, the information packs, the welcome - just what we needed! We felt ‘at home’, cared for, but never ‘watched’. Our hosts were exemplary. We especially enjoyed our boat trip to Inner Farne (amazing to be so close to puffins), the gardens at Paxton House, and a solitary wander and paddle at Cheswick Sands. We have every intention to return.
Horsfall family
Wow!! What an amazing week at Hiddenhus! The most beautiful cottage and gardens, the attention to detail and everything is so well thought out. Love all the little extras. We didn’t want to go home! Thank you for providing us with such an amazing holiday.
Mr & Mrs Wilderspin
We had a wonderful time at Hiddenhus - it was so comfortable, well equipped and homely - we would thoroughly recommend it. The garden was also stunning and all the information available on the area, walks, pubs etc was exceptional - as well as the welcome goodies and things like the parking permits. There was nothing that hadn't been thought of. A truly great property - we will recommend to friends and hope to return at some point.
Mr & Mrs Flood
We have had a lovely week in your super cottage, thank you. The cottage is one of the best we have stayed in, very comfortable with everything you need for a good holiday. The information on places to visit and walks have proved very helpful, as although we have been to Northumberland many times, we have found lots of new places to visit. We have every intention of returning to explore some more.
Mr & Mrs Armstrong
What a lovely cottage in a delightful location. We are really impressed with the high standards of equipment, furnishings and cleanliness. We have enjoyed a lovely week here and look forward to hopefully returning in the future.
Simpson family
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing!!! Best self-catering accommodation we have stayed in. Well equipped to a high standard and a great base to explore the area. The information provided was outstanding. Thank you for making our holiday extremely enjoyable - everything was perfect. We look forward to coming back again.
Macleod family
Baby’s first holiday and what a lovely time we had! The cottage was so cosy, and everything was immaculate.
Mr & Mrs Harkins
Been looking forward to our return to Hiddenhus - it did not disappoint, and we were delighted to be back. Each day we have explored and discovered something/somewhere new and wonderful - feel we need yet more weeks and still only scratching at the surface. Our week has been themed with hosts of snowdrops at every nook and cranny. We have also had two named storms. The owners have been so generous in ensuring we were safe. The Hus remains cosy warm and very comfortable - the perfect place to hunker down and see out a storm …and the pots of snowdrops in the garden heralding spring and better weather are a joy. We will be back!
Mr & Mrs Frier
Its a real home from home, with every comfort. Despite a mixture of weather, we still managed to enjoy the garden, round the firepit and enjoyed using the new hot tub. Also used a couple of games of Scrabble! We enjoyed visiting our usual places and some new ones as well. The cottage is in such a good location for going north, south or further inland to Kelso, or just on the doorstep into Berwick. We would go there again.
Ormsby family
The cottage was a perfect place to wake up in and catch the beautiful light on the hills and to cosy up in the evening by the log burner. Beautifully laid out gardens to sit and have a late afternoon cup of tea watching the birds feast. Everything thoughtfully done. Difficult to mention a favourite trip as every new day brought a new one.
Mr & Mrs Armstrong
Our second visit to Hiddenhus, and once again we are really impressed with the high standard of everything in the cottage. We loved the spring flowers in the garden, the spring lambs in the neighbouring fields, and the birds and the deer in the orchard field. Thank you once again for a warm welcome, thoughtful provisions, and attention to detail in every aspect of Hiddenhus.
Mr & Mrs Harris
Second visit and had a lovely week. A wonderful place to stay. No otters this time, but we saw the local hare a few times. A wonderful place to stay, thank you for your attention to every detail! Very much a place to unwind, gardens and grounds really look great.
Ms Jamieson
An amazing place to stay. Beautiful garden to enjoy and all the home comforts you need for a relaxing week away from it all. A fantastic base to explore the coast, north and south. Mixed weather, but a few blankets and the fire pit meant we could still make the most of the garden. Couldn’t have asked for more. We will certainly be back if we make the journey to the Northeast again.
Mr & Mrs Greer
We've had a wonderful stay here at Hiddenhus. We know this area very well and have stayed in some beautiful accommodation but this is by far the best! Attention to detail has been noted, loved and very much admired. The garden is stunning and it’s obviously been such a labour of love. All this and poetry books too - bliss!
Smith party
The Hiddenhus is perfect! As well as being both stylish and comfortable, there is a wonderful attention to detail both inside and out. The information on the local area is the best, and most extensive, of any holiday property we’ve visited. We’re already looking forward to our next stay!
Noakes party
We had a great week at Hiddenhus and felt ‘at home’ straight away. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. It was in a good location for visiting several place in the surrounding area. The garden was beautiful and was a pleasure use. The owners were very welcoming and helpful and the welcome pack on arrival was much appreciated. As for Crabtree & Crabtree, perfect as always, booking holidays with you is a pleasure and the information needed is always received. Thank you.
Mr & Mrs Kent
What an amazing cottage in a fantastic location! My Husband and myself have stayed in many cottages all over the UK during our 40 years of marriage but I must say that Hiddenhus is one of the best. The attention to detail in both the decor, furnishings and equipment cannot be faulted. Thank you. I am sure we will be returning.
Mr & Mrs Robson
We have just spent a fantastic week at Hiddenhus in Northumberland. Hiddenhus is a real 'hidden gem'. It has been loving restored by the owners, who must be some of the very best hosts around. They have produced a book of photos showing the ruined bothy they started with, all the work undertaken right up to the finished cottage. They have taken so much care with every detail and their folders of walks, places of interest, events and eateries are the best I have ever seen. They have included photos of the walks and even photocopied maps so guests can take them with them. The cottage is a lovely warm and comfortable haven to return to after a day out. Then of course there is the amazing wood fired hot tub to enjoy in the evening. Stargazing from it's warmth was fabulous. With Hiddenhus being in the dark skies area the sky at night is really something to behold. Hiddenhus is definitely a wonderful home from home and we are already planning when we can return. Of course Northumberland has so many beautiful beaches to visit, our favourites being Bamburgh and Cocklawburn, but there are other places of interest too. Etal has a lovely walk down by the river and Lindisfarne always feels like an adventure. Will the tide be out, how long can we stay! Further afield is the amazing National Museum of Flight at North Berwick. Here you can not only see planes close up but you can actually go on board Concorde. In addition the films and information on the social history of this aerodrome during the 2 world wars is brilliant.
Tait family
Wow! What an amazing place to stay ! We’ve been so warm & cosy here. We’ve self catered for years and every now and then you come across perfection. Perfect! Perfect cottage, perfect location, perfect bed & bathroom, perfect hosts.
Mr & Mrs Holloway
We have had a great week in this fabulous house. We love everything about it - head and shoulders above most other holiday rentals we have ever stayed in. It was brilliant to have such comprehensive guides and personal recommendations for walks and places to visit. Already planning our return to Hiddenhus.
Nickeas family
What a fantastic we’ve had staying in this beautiful cottage - the best we’ve ever stayed in & there have been many! Beautiful setting, gorgeous and tranquil garden & superbly appointed immaculate accommodation. All the little extras and details have made this a very special holiday including the use of the relaxing hot tub in the evenings! The superb walking guides & information have been very well used and have helped us make the most of this stunning area. We will definitely return & recommend Hiddenhus to our family & friends.
