Host & Stay | Melody's Cottage
Entire home in Middleton, United Kingdom
The space
Melody’s Cottage is a beautiful terraced property packed with character. Inside you’ll find a living room complete with a log fire, two cosy bedrooms, an open plan kitchen diner and two bathrooms, all in picturesque surroundings.With a spacious layout and a warm colour palette, the living room is homely and relaxing. Kick back on the large sofa or in the armchair with a good book or play games with your loved ones. As it gets colder outside, fire up the log burner and enjoy a cosy night in. Traditional in style, the space also includes a flat-screen Smart TV, desk area, and storage space.
Head out of the living room and you’ll find the open plan kitchen diner. With light coloured walls and a large window overlooking the garden, the kitchen has a bright and airy feel. White wooden cabinets add a somewhat traditional style to the space which fits perfectly with the nature of the property. Fully equipped for all self-catering staycations, you’ll have access to an oven, hob, microwave, toaster and kettle during your stay.
Ideal for socialising, the open plan kitchen diner allows guests to gather and chat whilst others cook. With a rectangular wooden table and four chairs along with a separate breakfast bar, there is ample space for your party to enjoy meals together.
Also located on the ground floor is a modern shower room.
Outside you’ll find an enclosed grassed garden along with a small paved area with outdoor furniture - very much a family and dog friendly area. A real treat, this outside space is an added luxury to Melody’s Cottage. You can enjoy al fresco dining with your party and drinks outside as the evening draws near. What’s more, when it’s bright outside, you’ll be guaranteed sun all day long thanks to the fantastic position and openness of the garden.
Head back inside and take the stairs up to the first floor and you’ll find two bedrooms. Bold in colour, the first bedroom has a double bed and cream coloured walls along with an olive green wall behind the headboard to create a cosy and claiming space.
The second bedroom has two single beds made up using soft furnishings and a light grey carpet.
You’ll enjoy your sleep at Melody’s Cottage as all beds feature crisp white linens and plush bedding.
The family bathroom has a bathtub with handheld shower, wash basin and WC.

Beautiful and peaceful location. Cottage was a good size with everything you need. We were a little disappointed with conditions of property. Previous damage from alterations and updates had not been repaired, there was some damp in the living room and smaller bedroom that needs addressing and the kitchen, while superficially clean was not really clean (dirty cupboards and oven). The downstairs bathroom has a constant unpleasant smell. We did have good communication with Host & Stay. We had a problem with wasps in the upstairs rooms, probably from a nest in the loft space. We reported this (along with the other issues above) and received prompt reply. While nothing was done during our stay, we were only staying three nights, we were assured they would be addressed promptly.

The cottage itself is beautiful & has clearly been lovingly designed, the problem is the people that are supposed to be maintaining it. The first thing we noticed when we opened the door was the overpowering smell from the downstairs bathroom (so strong we had to keep the fan on & doors shut at all times) The cottage is beautifully furnished & is very comfortable & cosy BUT needs a deep clean & maintenance. Issues we experienced were: Bathrooms had not been cleaned for our arrival (& for some time) Filthy toilets with urine stains & hairs Filthy sinks with toothpaste, mould & gunk Dirty bath with black tide marks & hairs Dirty shower with shower gel & black mould on walls Beds had been made but bedding not changed- marks on pillows & sheets & smelly Dirty bath mats & towels Damp & flaking walls A clear wasp nest in the attic as we came home to tens of dead / sleepy wasps on the landing each day. All of this was reported on arrival to the host but the issues were never resolved.

Melody cottage was an excellent cottage, great location near to all places we wanted to visit, easy to find, nice large garden prefect for catching the sun after a long day of sightseeing, also good and secure if bringing the family dog with you. Having two bathrooms was also another bonus of the property not having to wait for others. Definitely would recommend this property and would book again And in such a beautiful peaceful location

Loved our stay in Northumberland! Cottage was super central for all the things we wanted to see; Alnwick, Bamburgh, Holy Island. Cottage was pristine and felt super cosy right from the start. Couldnt get logged into the wifi but didnt really need it either with so much to do around us! Would 100% stay there again!
