Located just outside the sleepy village of Belford, Melody’s Cottage is a cosy period property with plenty of charm. Nestled within stunning countryside, the holiday home is perfectly located between the historic towns of Berwick-upon-Tweed and Alnwick. Whether you’re looking for a tranquil getaway or a dog friendly adventure, the property will provide the ideal base for your stay. Sleeping up to four guests, Melody’s Cottage is a calming oasis for couples, families and small groups of friends.
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.

We had a great stay at this holiday house. The location was fantastic. It was close to the beach and an easy drive to lots of places across Northumberland. The house was very clean and the layout worked perfectly for two adults and two children. It was well equipped, so we did not need to buy anything extra during our stay. The furnishings were modern and appealing, which made it feel welcoming and comfortable. A brilliant base for a family break. We would stay again.

We arrived in middle of storm Amy and first thing that greeted us was appalling smell from downstairs shower and toilet - we had to keep fan on and connecting doors closed for duration of our visit room was unusable due to smell. Other first impressions were that house had not been cleaned well first thing we saw was a very large very long dead spider on kitchen floor! Window ledge was grubby as were glasses mugs and cutlery. But these were minor as on going to bed we found that none of the bedsheets had been changed. There were marks on linen and pillowcases stank of head sweat. We phoned hosts and were advised to go out and buy some more bed linen! This was 10.30 pm we were in a very rural area and there was a storm raging! We thought about placing towels on beds but on inspection these were covered in stains some looking suspiciously like blood. We took photos!Hosts did not send cleaners round till 11.30 next morning to change linen. We have asked for compensation waiting to hear.

Lovely clean house. Good space in the sitting room and kitchen/dining room. 2 bathrooms makes it easy (one upstairs and one downstairs). The garden is a real sun trap in the evening and it’s very peaceful. Local walk/strolls are beautiful. Nice and close drive to the tourists spots.
