“What a beautiful place!”

The house was a great size, very clean and beautifully maintained. It was modern but also kept those traditional features. The access to the stream outside the house was fantastic for my dogs and just outside the house is a lovely sun trap. We walked for miles and most of the time directly from the house. Would definitely recommend if you want peace and quiet and it's of outdoor time.

“House was great.”

Comfortable beds. Very clean had everything we needed. Great walks from the doorstep. Only thing missing was a hoover. So we was unable to leave house as clean as we would have like. Would stay again.

“We found the cottage to be very pretty visually.”

The interior had been newly refurbished so was lovely and fresh. The outside still needs more work as the garden is not enclosed at all so not dog friendly and there was a pile of garden rubble which i did not want to have my dog go near. The bed we found very uncomfortable as the mattress is really hard. This is a personal thing as different people like different mattresses but for us it was difficult to sleep comfortably for our stay. None of the bedrooms have wardrobes, There was a light weight clothes rail which we borrowed from one of the other bedrooms for hanging our clothes while we were there. The bathroom has no toilet roll holder or bin for things that do not need to be flushed down a toilet, and the shower struggles to drain properly. The T.V works by WiFi only and it is impossible with no satalite connection to get any of the normal t.v channels and if the internet goes down you have no t.v at all. We had to install our netflix codes in order to find anything to watch, even getting BBC i player to watch any live broadcast was breaking up on many occasions due to WIFI issues. The instructions for the WIFI code and the radiators were in a kitchen draw which took us a while to find, usually there are instructions in a folder somewhere visible when you first enter. The downstairs was cold most of the time even though there are lots of radiators, because the room is so big it is difficult to get it warm unless you lite the log burner but that is extra cost. It is too warm upstairs because all the heat from the ground floor goes up through the open stair well. We had been left a bottle of wine by the owner which we thank him for. There are a few tweeks that would make all the difference. It is a lovely property in a lovely location. I have only gone in to such detail as we have had holiday lets of our own for years.

Tucking Mill is equipped with latest ceramic electric heaters throughout the property. Each heater has it's own thermostat enabling guests to set each area to their preferred temperature. The heaters are generally set at half power, guests can increase or reduce settings to their preference. Heat naturally rises up through the open staircase, temperatures on the landing and in the bedrooms are easily controlled up or down using the heater thermostats and opening or closing bedroom doors and windows. The double & king size beds are fitted with new Silentnight Memory Foam Mattresses which have proved to be very popular with previous guests. Had we been told that you felt your bed was uncomfortable, we could have supplied you with a mattress topper. The zip link Super King bed in Tucking Mill uses traditional deep sprung mattresses, you may have preferred to use that bedroom. Smart TV at Tucking Mill receives BBC, other main channels and much more. It's unfortunate on the day you arrived the UK experienced the worst storms for years. This had an effect on reception and Broadband was out of service for part of a day. All bedrooms now have hanging facilities and drawers for clothes, all bathrooms have waste bins. Thank you for the detailed feedback. Our aim is to offer quality holiday accommodation at Tucking Mill to enhance the Heddon Valley holiday experience. Please see previous reviews.

“Tucking Mill was a lovely cottage to spend our week, it had everything we needed.”

A lovely log burner to Enjoy A glass, or two by. Comfy beds, a shower to die for. Make sure you take some supplies, great fridge freezer combo in kitchen. Scenery is fantastic especially if your into walking, unfortunately not for us, a stroll is us. Car parking is spacious and safe. This cottage has been very, very well renovated. Would definitely recommend.
