Shepherds Retreat - Self catering accommodation sleeping 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

This is a lovely quiet place to stay, away from any disturbances. The welcome homemade lemon drizzle cake was very welcome and a nice touch. Beautiful scenery during the day and very dark skies at night for stargazing

Lovely holiday cottage with everything provided for a relaxing stay. Comfortable beds and quality linens and towels. Beautiful location, easy access to all areas for the Roman Wall and Northumberland.

This is an excellent place to stay. Very clean and comfortable. The hosts left such nice welcoming items, including a delicious lemon cake which was much appreciated. The views out the back are amazing. The bedrooms were so beautiful, with their old beams and stonework. Really a favorite. Looking forward to returning.

Cosy well equipped cottage. Great views from all rooms. Spotlessly clean. Good value

A lovely cottage with tremendous views, and a great location to visit the sites along Hadrian's Wall. The bed was comfortable and the linen and towels were good quality. The kitchen was very well equipped and the place was spotlessly clean. And the flowers and home made cake were a super touch.

Exactly as described. A warm welcome for an ideal short break next to Hadrians Wall. Many thanks. Nick

This is a beautiful place to stay. Kevin & Leah are amazing hosts and can’t do enough for you. Lots of special little touches - a fantastic cake & very much appreciated welcome pack greeted us when we checked in. Everything you could possible need is all available and at the highest standard. The views are amazing and make you totally relax. We strongly recommend Carraw and can’t wait to go back and stay.

Have stayed many times at Shepherd's retreat truly amazing with perfect hosts who are on hand to assist if necessary.

We booked the cottage for a long weekend, whilst attending a national cycling event near Hexham. The cottage was perfect for our group of three adults, providing us with two double bedrooms, both with ensuite facilities. The cottage was clean, warm and well equipped for our stay and the location was fantastic for walks on Hadrians Wall and only a fifteen minute drive to Hexham. The owner was very accommodating to our needs and generously provided a welcome pack of essentials plus a homemade cake. The owner's website also had a lot of useful information. We would certainly recommend Shepherd's Retreat to anyone visiting the area.

Shepherd’s Retreat was a beautiful place to base ourselves for exploring the local area. We immediately felt at home - the cottage was very clean and comfortable and there was even a lovely cake waiting for us in the kitchen. Leah was very helpful , offering us advice about the best ways to explore around and about and even thinking to knock on the door when the Northern Lights made an appearance - an added bonus during the week. We needed more time to see this stunning part of the country and would love to visit again.

Spent two nights in this delightful cottage with spectacular views of the Northumberland countryside. The hosts are helpful but not intrusive with a welcome pack a lovely surprise. The cottage itself is well equipped and catered for all your needs. We enjoyed having breakfast in the lovely walled garden listening to the birds and sheep. Hadrian's wall and other sites a short distance away so perfectly located for seeing the sites. We would love to return.

We had a lovely stay at the Shepherds retreat for the bank holiday weekend. The location is surprisingly quiet but there are plenty of places to eat only a short drive away. The views are incredible and the cottage is on the Hadrians wall walk. We were very grateful for the welcome hamper and the farmhouse breakfast. Thank you for a lovely weekend!

Our 3 night stay was perfect in every way. Leah and Kevin had thought of everything guests would need and more. The basket of locally produced goodies and the homemade cake made us feel so welcome. We were lucky with warm and sunny weather, so we enjoyed our tea and cake in the garden. There is a wealth of local guides and maps and a good range of dvds. We wholeheartedly recommend the Shepherd’s Retreat.
