Our Background and Reputation for Quality and Luxury in Self Catering Holiday Accommodation

Established in 1997, 'Coquet Cottages' is a unique collection of privately owned luxury self-catering holiday properties, all centrally located in beautiful Northumberland.

The majority of our cottages are situated in the beautiful and historic Conservation Village of Warkworth and we also have cottages in the Conservation area of Alnwick and in the grounds of Brinkburn Priory, near Rothbury in the Coquet Valley. All of our cottages are centrally placed for exploring the whole of Northumberland, including the Heritage Coast and inland country, the Borders and the National Park, as well as NewCastle and Gateshead, Durham and in fact, the whole of the North East of England, or 'Northumbria' as it is more correctly known as.

Of the self catering cottages you will find on our website, we own many of them ourselves, with others belonging to friends who share the same ethos and values as ourselves and have extremely high standards in both the interior design and the overall quality and presentation of their luxury cottages. We know each property intimately, so can answer any queries you may have in order to ensure your chosen cottage is perfect for you and your fellow guests.

Over the last thirteen years our reputation has been built on providing exceptionally high quality, immaculately clean and luxurious self-catering cottages to create holidays that are truly memorable. We pay great attention to detail and provide many special touches that you won't find in the majority of self-catering cottages.

Our luxury cottages are extremely well-maintained, each having its own dedicated housekeeper or is lovingly cared for my its owner. The majority of our staff have been with us for many years and every one of them, like the owners, takes great pride in the cleanliness and presentation of 'their' cottage.

We don't use a call centre - or employ staff that have never visited our cottages. We enjoy speaking to and getting to know all of our guests so that we can be sure we are fully meeting their expectations and needs. We want you to enjoy your holiday in Northumberland and feel at home in your cottage and we want you to return home with wonderful memories of a very special holiday in a very special part of the country.

We hope you'll return for another holiday, but our priority is to send you home happy and relaxed!

Quality Accredited Self Catering Holiday Cottages

The majority of our luxury cottages have been independently assessed for quality by VisitBritain, and those that haven't yet, will do within 12 months of joining as this is one of the criteria for inclusion to our portfolio.

We are delighted to have been awarded 4 and 5 Stars for all properties that have so far been assessed.

In addition to this, three cottages; Coquet View, Rebecca House and Lane End Cottage, have been granted EnjoyEngland Gold Awards by VisitBritain. This places them amongst the very best cottages in the whole of the UK.

Our quality assessed cottages have also been awarded various additional awards from VisitBritain. These include Walkers Welcome, Cyclists Welcome, Families Welcome and Welcome Pets.

Please see the individual cottage webpages for specific information on star ratings and awards.

To become part of our collection cottages must be already rated at 4 or 5 Star standard or be assessed within the first year of joining Coquet Cottages. However we ensure that those awaiting assessment are already furnished and equipped to beyond a minimum of 4 Star standard.
