Stayed for 2 nights with my wife and dog. Facilities wee fantastic. High end en-suite and kitchen. Nice touch of a welcome bottle of bubbles. Really comfy bed. Logs for both indoor stove and outdoor log burner. Which we cuddled up to both nights. The full size Jacuzzi really made for a great couple of days. Pub 10 mins walk down the road ( sadly not dog friendly) hadrians wall 20 mins walk. Can’t recommend it enough. Will definitely be back.

Winter: Luxury 3 night stay

Pearson, John - 24/01/2024

A warm welcome in mid-January, a little snow on the ground but a very cosy Castle Pod. Our dog, Oscar was also made to feel very welcome. The Castle Pod was so comfortable, and it seems everything was thought of and to a high standard. Relaxing in the Hot Tub was wonderful as we watched the sun go down over the distant hill. So peaceful. All the facilities on site are spot-on.The snow faded and the wind blew - a time to relax with a glass of wine and a book. Oscar was so chilled too. It was good to step out of the pod - walking Oscar and looking at the stars (so clear). We have to mention the breakfast box, beautiful.We can't thank the staff enough for such a relaxing stay, just what the doctor ordered (as the saying goes), and the other catchphrase - "We'll be back."

Relaxing and peaceful

Me my partner and our small dog stayed in the castle pod, it was a perfect getaway so clean and very comfortable and all the staff are super friendly and very knowledgeable and ask them where to go and visit they told us some fantastic areas to see, The weather wasn't great one day but the pod having a log burner and underfloor heating made our stay so cosy and the views from inside the pod and from the hottub was amazing. It was so peaceful and a very tidy site with a fantastic dog walking area, they even have animals for the kids to see, it's also very close to lots of places to visit and see but at the same time out of the way to be peaceful, on a clear night the stars are amazing to see too as its no light pollution around. A great find and we will be back again soon

We have stayed at Herding Hill with a motorhome twice before, but wanted to treat ourselves to a little touch of luxury in the Castle Pods. We loved our 4 nights here, the pod has its own private jacuzzi, BBQ and outside seating area, all with wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. Two of the Pods allow dogs to stay, so our dog joined us too. There is a great dog walking field at the top of the site, for those early morning/late evening strolls.The Pod was wonderfully equipped, with a very comfortable bed and on one clear night, we sat dark sky star gazing, what a view. The staff were very friendly and helped with any query or question we had. Its is within walking distance of the Roman Wall and many other Roman ruins and museums, just perfect. There are a number of local pubs within a short driving distance, all serving great food and local beers.This is a firm favourite and we won't hesitate going back.

Good location for Hadrians Wall and Haltwhistle

Every where was very clean, site was quiet. I thought the layout of the castle pods could of been better . The 2 dog friendly pods had a restricted view of the valley due to other pods in front. Overall a great site and base for seeing Hadrians Wall. I would go again and recommend to others.

Herding Hill Farm is everything you want and need. Friendly staff, immaculate amenities, dog friendly pod, beautiful views, great walks, local pubs and a hot tub for the stars at night 💕 We stayed in the new castle pods and they came fully equipped so we just had to jump in the car and enjoy. Definitely recommend to all. Outstanding!! Can’t wait to go back 😁👍

5* Glamping Holiday

Wildgoose, Louise - 25/04/2023

Accommodation was immaculate and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The site was peaceful and well set out. The shop was well stocked. All the wardens on-site were very friendly and helpful. It was lovely seeing all the animals on-site as well as being surrounded by fields of sheep.The area was beautiful. Sycamore Gap was only a few minutes drive away. If you do the walk be warned it is very steep in places. The views though are fantastic and more then make up for all the hard work in getting there. Haltwhistle is a pretty town and has everything you need. We went to Kielder Forest and Water which was about an hours drive away. Well worth it though.Overall we were very impressed with the site and can’t wait to go back.
