This was our first visit to Tarset Tor, and not our last.The bothy was warm, comfortable and had everything you need for your stay.It was like home from home with nice hot showers and a fully functioning kitchen.The view was really nice no matter what time of day, but it did look lovely when the sunset on a clear night.A peaceful location and very quiet during the night.On departure you do need to strip beds, give a sweep over the floors and a little bit of a clean around but this wasn’t a problem for us. Also make sure to recycle your rubbish at the designated areas on site.Looking forward to another visit in the near future.Rooms: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

Gotta say Rob and Claire were extremely welcoming and friendly, the rooms were nice and clean (canny few spiders but we're in the countryside 😄)showers, kitchen, living room etc were all spot on!Beautiful views with a lovely pond on site and plenty of BBQs available and room for the kids to play as well as a nice little football pitch, felt like a very safe environment for young children and older ones alike.Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be going back!!! In fact we're booking for next year right now!!!❤️Rooms: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

This is an amazing place. It's obviously growing quickly and I will be keeping up with its developments. If you have a group definitely consider booking the bunkhouse. It's very practical and very good value for money.The only thing I'd change is that there was a problem with the floor in the toilets that needs addressing. Other than that the lodge is perfect. Definitely considering visiting again.Rooms: 4/5 | Service: 4/5 | Location: 5/5

From beginning to the end it was just perfect!Arrival we met the lovely Rob & Claire and helped us with anything we needed.The Bothy it’s self was clean, SO WARM (very much needed on a wet and windy February) it is equipped with everything you’d need from fuel for biomass burner to bottle opener! It’s slept all 5 of us very comfortably with very clean beds and bedding.The view are just amazing and need to be seen to appreciate how beautiful Northumberland really is.We will definitely be back in fact I might just book it tonight.Highly recommend this accommodation!!!Rooms: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

Such an amazing place for a stag or hen weekend. Surrounded by the most amazing country side and rivers, undulating hills and breath taking views. The owners were very friendly and accommodating and couldn't do enough to make sure our stay (all 16 of us) here was as good as it could be. We stayed in the bunk house and it was very well equipped with everything we could possibly need. It was clean, tidy, spacious and VERY VERY warm. There is a sauna (which we didn't manage to use but the stag party that were in the bothys managed to get their fair use of it) we also had a hillbilly outdoor bar area with fire pit and the whole experience was just outstanding. Thanks to Rob and Claire for their warm welcome and making sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be back here, that is for sure.
