An absolutely stunning house. Beautiful furniture, comfortable beds, amazing views, and sublime hot tub. A fantastic little retreat. The place did need a really good clean in places - windows were really in need of attention, some mirrors etc hadn’t seen a duster in a while, and the soap dispensers in the shower need to be replaced. However, didn’t affect our enjoyment of the place. We will definitely be back!

This was a beautifully displayed property as pictured however when arriving inside the place was infested with flies. Crawling over plates and cutlery, beds, walls and floors. Being in the property less than a minutes and they were all over us and we had to leave immediately. The host was aware and unhelpful saying he turned on the fly zapper before we got there but it was clear there was a bigger issue with the amount in the property. We also arrived to find the blinds closed and when opened was clear it was because there was a scaffolding erected along main view windows which is why we chose a property in country for pleasant views. Again not mentioned at any point of booking. We had to then located a property at 5pm in the evening after travelling all day with a 2 year old, 5 year old and elderly mum. We had 3 days worth of food wasted as we had no fridge and had to a cell activities booked as were not in the area staying anymore. Having to cancel our break away.

The place was spacious and stylish and it was located in a peaceful location. The views of the stunning countryside were spectacular and was so nice to wake up to from the upstairs bedroom. The kitchen was clean and well equipped. We had a power cut on day 2 and the WiFi went off. We contacted host and stay and within the hour it was sorted by the owner. The hot tub was so relaxing and made our stay so relaxing. Will definitely be back

Lovely accommodation, very spacious and lots of options for seating areas. Main bedroom suite is incredible. Nice to spend evenings in the hot tub with the beautiful views. A few things needing changed (mostly what people had written in previous reviews). I have discussed this with Host & Stay separately and they seemed open to the suggestions so hopefully the issues don't arise for future guests. Overall a very lovely accommodation, just needing a few finishing touches to make the trip 5 stars.

The house was very spacious for the four of us. Unfortunately, it wasn't as clean as you would expect. There was mould around the shower edges and tooth paste splatters along the wooden edging in the bathroom. The floor was dirty and there were visible gatherings of dust. The table was laid beautifully but dust was on the plates and glasses. The hot tub wasn't clean enough to use as it had scum round the edges and sand on the seats and at the bottom. The owner did come and change the water when we contacted him, however, the treatment of the hot tub was down to us. This added a lot of stress to our holiday as we couldn't get the test strips to show it was safe to use. The main bed had a dip in which made it uncomfortable to sleep in. There was a leak in the large windows panes when it rained leaving pools of water to mop up. We found this review hard to write as we haven't ever left negative feedback on any of our holidays but for the price we paid, we expected better quality.

Good location, initial thoughts great place BUT - mould in showers, bed linen and covers stained, main bed broken and clear had been for some time. Broken bed held up by a block of wood. Kitchen gadgets poor quality and lack any thought and day to day needs. Very disappointing Due to filthy conditions didn’t use hot tub.

We loved our stay at The Gathering. Since arriving on day 1, the instructions for the property were straight forward and concise. Once checked in, we were greeted by the owner, John, who was very polite and made us feel at home. Any issue or query he helped us with as well as recommendations of the local area. The property was better than we imagined, with beautiful high ceilings in the lounge and a nice balcony to have a peaceful on. Our stay was for 2 nights and we found that we were able to optimise the property and facilities in this time. With it being so close to Belsay, Matfen and Ponteland, there was plenty to do and explore during the day time. The check out process was easy and instructions were given the night before just to confirm details and answer any queries we did have. I would definitely recommend this stay to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with all the facilities someone would need.

The Gathering was exactly as described, very peaceful surrounding but still close to shops and the city for a nice day out! The interior was gorgeous, looks just like the photos very spacious but still cosy! If you’re going in winter deffo pack some warm clothes and cozy pjs! But had a wonderful stay, would deffo recommend to anyone

What an amazing place to spend a relaxing weekend. We wanted somewhere to switch off and found exactly that. Beautiful house with light coming in through all the huge windows with amazing views. The views from the hot tub were great and it was plenty big for all 4 of us. We will definitely be coming back!

We had a lovely stay in the gathering. Our first family holiday with our 6 month old and there was lots of space for everything. We would highly recommend staying at the gathering for many reason. The hosts were great, the sheer space in the place is incredible yet it still feels homely. It was nice and quiet. Having a coffee on the balcony felt very peaceful. We loved our stay and we will hopefully be returning in the future.

We had the most beautiful weekend. When we arrived the host was making sure everything was ok and even offered us fresh eggs from their own hens on the grounds. The house was beautiful and the views were stunning. We were able to relax in the hot tub in the evenings and it felt very private. We were also able to make all of our meals in the kitchen which had everything we needed. We could relax with a movie in the living room area in the evenings. I would highly recommend staying in this house. The hosts were very friendly but also not intrusive at all but made sure we had everything we needed. They also had plenty of recommendations for things to do in the area which was very helpful. We would definitely return

I really can't recommend The Gathering enough if you're looking at a base for exploring Northumberland. Nestled in a beautifully peaceful setting, and with every provision you could ask for, you won't be disappointed! There's plenty to explore in the surrounding area to keep you occupied during the day, as well as soaking the evening away come rain or shine in the covered hot tub. The hosts are extremely friendly, with a lot of local knowledge and ideas of places to visit. Would highly recommend this destination, and wouldn't think twice about returning for another stay

When we arrived in the Sunday the first thing we did was turn on the hot tub but noticed that the water was very murky and had a bit of a sulphur smell coming from the filter, we decided to use it anyway but on the Tuesday we saw the owners and told them that it could do with either cleaning out or some chlorine added as the box supplied in the box was empty. We said that we would be out all day Wednesday so it would be good if it could be ready to use for Thursday and Friday. On Wednesday evening my wife bumped into the owners and they said that they would have to empty the hot tub Friday morning ready for the new customers staying after us and said that 'someone will have to miss out unfortunately' So for the entire time we were there nothing was done with it and was only checked because we told them that it wasn't clean. This put a real damper on the holiday for the rest of the week as we specifically paid over £200 a day.

We arrived at The Gathering and on first glance the place was stunning and we were very excited. When I went to explore upstairs the large blind across the double doors was down which I thought was strange as the other smaller blind was up. I went to open the blind and the beads to pull it up fell into my hand they were not attached. I reported this immediately to Host and Stay. The owner arrived to look the following morning and said he wouldn’t be able to fix it. This was very disappointing as the blind being down meant we couldn’t enjoy the view from the first floor balcony. The cleanliness of the lodge was exceptionally disappointing, there are stains all over the inside of the windows and evident dirt and dust on the glass light shades above the kitchen island. The hot tub which was the main reason we booked the place did not smell right and when we checked the filter it was all orange and a build up of dirt. This meant after the first day it had a strong smell of sewages

The Gathering was beautiful, quiet and peaceful. We loved hearing the birds and having no disturbances. Don't stay there is you want to be close to amenities as it is a fair step to the nearest shop. That said, we knew this and loved it. We found it a great place to stay and visit lots of places whilst 'up North'! We loved the hot tub and generally the space. We really enjoyed our stay at The Gathering and felt at home. Thank you for making our stay lovely.

An absolutely beautiful place to stay - wonderful barn conversion - stunning countryside - thrilled to see it had been used during an episode of 'Vera' - met John who was great and answered my many questions about the filming!!!!! However although the house was stunning and very clean - there were areas that were not as clean as you would expect - loads of cobwebs , dirty windows, outside table dirty - and a real shortage of basics. ( only one dishwasher tablet , no store cupboard items that most Airbnb seem to provide ( spray oil etc) - it was also difficult as the Host company only seemed to respond overnight which made some communication difficult! We stayed during a very hot weekend( unexpected!) and because there was a problem with the doors we only had a kitchen window to open - I think a fan downstairs might come in handy this summer. However these are all small points - loved the house and our stay. thank you .

We stayed at the gatherings part of the build. It was lovely and the location was peaceful and quiet. The communication from the owners about check in and check out was very clear and the whole experience was straight forward. It’s situated in a beautiful part of the world and we enjoy our few days away.

We originally had the gathering booked Friday to Monday but were notified of the availability of the Wednesday and Thursday so we took the opportunity to check in a night early! Made all the difference extending the weekend, a beautiful property, clean with comfy beds! Everything needed was provided, even fresh eggs from the chickens! Close to the city but far enough away to feel remote! Definitely recommended!

The Gathering is a fantastic place to stay. The building has clearly been converted to a high standard, it is well designed, beautifully finished and presented with lovely views over the countryside. I would be very happy staying here again! I felt it was good value for money and it was in peaceful surroundings which is exactly what I'd hoped for.

this place is amazing! the host comes with our highest recommendation. it's only once you're actually there that you get a true sense of the scale of this place, the standard of finish, calculation and level of attention to detail given to the decor and setting. everything here, at first seemingly simple, presents itself in lingering retrospect as an understated statement piece. the price - so competitive. I think this amongst the most accessible, value-added and satisfying properties you could stay in that are available to this standard and in this area on air b'n'b thankyou so much and we are hoping to return again in the future.
