Watch Bella bound into her welcoming Northumberland holiday home every time she returns from a bracing walk along the beach. This single-level retreat just outside Norham, is 6.5 miles from Berwick-upon-Tweed and in an excellent location for anyone seeking exhilarating hikes with their four-pawed pal. Sleeping four guests, it is perfect for couples or a small family wishing to bring a furry friend along for the stay.

Let Bella lead you up the low step to the deck and through the French doors of this quaint abode. Find yourselves in the open-plan kitchen/diner, where you can reward her with a big bowl of water and something to eat. Unpack the groceries you have bought for yourselves then prepare a tempting feast for everyone to enjoy up at the table. Relax on the comfortable seats to watch the TV in here as you check the dinner from time to time. Head through to the cosy lounge to fire up the wood burner and settle down to your favourite show on another TV. Read your book in the window seat as your awesome pet relaxes on the rug. Settle Bella for the night before running yourself a long, hot bubble bath or indulging in a steaming shower. Lay your head in the double or twin bedroom, each with its own TV. Relax together on the south-facing, enclosed patio to the front, or take Bella to play on the lawn at the back of the property, watching her carefully as it is not enclosed. There is also off-road parking for two cars here.

Stroll just over 0.5 miles to historic Norham Castle, where you and Bella can explore together and take in the far-reaching views over towards bonnie Scotland. Venture 11 miles to Goswick Sands, where she can run free and splash in the sea.

We booked this cottage due to its location and being dog friendly. Cottage more than met our expectations with everything we needed during our stay. Very quiet but not that far to Norham where there was about great pub for evening meals .

Had a lovely week at Border Cottage. The cottage is lovely and everything we needed. Good base for exploring Berwick. Enjoyed the garden centre. We loved Norham castle and visited it nearly every day. The Turners view trail was a beautiful walk. Butchers in the village was excellent. Very tasty sausages, burgers and cheese.
