This unusual, detached holiday accommodation with a peaceful contemporary feel is a restored former water tower set in a rural location, close to the charming village of Corbridge. Hadrian’s Wall is nearby, and Hexham, famous for its abbey and racecourse, is only a few minutes’ drive. The Northumberland Heritage Coast with its golden unspoilt beaches and castles is 50 minutes. Bamburgh and Alnwick, both with splendid castles, can be visited on the same day. Recommended restaurant/bar in Newton village (8 minutes’ walk) serving excellent food. Shop 5 miles, pub 3 miles.

Michael Guildford | Couple The location is excellent and the views from the house are lovely. But there are a lot of problems with this property. Firstly, the owners do not seem to be at all aware of the Covid regulations, as there are leaflets, games, books etc all over the place despite the fact that these should have been removed. Secondly, the property is positively dangerous for small children or old people because of trip hazards and steep drops off the patio outside; the place frankly did not feel clean and some of the utensils smelled as though they had not been washed at all; having said that, the bedding and towels were clean and the beds comfortable. The place is cluttered, there are plants all around and they actually get in the way, for example when you try and open doors or windows; most of the doors stick on the floors when you are trying to open them, the shower over the bath drips whenever you use any of the toilets or even turn a tap on, which is noisy if you need to get up in the night. The glassware is a mess, an ill-assorted jumble of odd items. I could go on. The owners were very welcoming and we were left a large home cooked loaf, eggs and wine on arrival, which was a nice touch, but on balance we do not feel we would recommend The Water Castle.
