We found Corbridge an excellent place to stay as it has a number of pubs and good restaurants. The Old Exchange is well situated in the centre of the town and we found it in very good condition. Every bedroom has its own bathroom and I would definitely use the property again if staying in the area.

Superb, centrally located 3 ensuite bedroom apartment
Corbridge is a lovely small town with everything you could possibly want - restaurants, pubs, local shops - plus lots of history close by - eg Hadrians wall and Roman forts. The Old Exchange is right in the middle of it. Extremely comfortable, very well furnished, 3 ensuite bedrooms, separate utility room and with parking for 3 cars.

Characterful luxury retreat in beautiful historic Village
Meticulously Clean & Characterful Apartment, centrally located in this delightful village. We stayed 3 nights as a family (3 adult couples), during our trip to Northumberland. The Apartment is tastefully furnished, with a high spec including lovely quality bedlinen & towels, welcome after a long trek along Hadrians Wall (approx 20 mins drive to Once Brewed Visitors centre where we parked & did circular walk along this superb section of wall). We particulary liked the 3 large ensuite bedrooms & wonderfully spacious Lounge, accommodating us all comfortably. John the owner whom we met on our arrival, made us feel welcome & briefed us on the accommodation & nearby places of interest & eateries. Corbridge is a lovely historic village with lots of quaint shops, good restaurants & 4 pubs, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay & would definately return in future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

prime property
its unique selling point is the fact that each of the 3 bedrooms is en suite . furthermore it has its own off road parking right in the centre of corbridge where most street parking is metered. ideally positioned, most restaurants and the coop supermarket are close by. An owner who was welcoming without being intrusive and immediately replaced without charge the glass i broke. the property is well maintained and well supplied. Sheets, towels etc are by Christy A degree in technology is however required to operate the washer! dryer!!

An all round feel good holiday in an excellent location.
The caring and friendly,informative attention from the owner was excellent. We immediately felt at home in this property,the three en-suites particularly useful! Superb location for local transport [Buses from the door and regular train services to Newcastle and Carlisle.]Only a short journey from the village is the Corbridge Roman Town...well worth a visit. Also within easy reach are many National Trust,English Heritage properties and of course ,the beautiful Northumbrian coast.
Hidden gems in the village from bijou boutiques,gift shops,an antiques centre and endless choices of places to eat...from the local pub to award winning international restaurants.
This property is great value for money and when time permits we hope to return!

Fantastic, comfortable stay in beautiful surroundings (inside and outside!)
We (family of four) spent a lovely 11 days here. It was warm, comfortable and relaxing. It is very well furnished and has a lovely, light spacious feel. It's position in the centre of a picturesque village is excellent and yet it is only minutes away from the countryside and tourist facilities such as an English Heritage Roman site.
We would definitely recommend it.

Outstanding accommodation in a wonderful village
We were a party of three couples, The property offered excellent standard of furnishing and fittings. The sitting room and bedrooms were spacious , The owner of the property came around one evening to ensure we were happy with the property, He was friendly and informative about the village and surrounding area.
Plenty of hot water which is appreciated when six people want to use the showers at the same time. Parking for three cars at the rear of the property
The only problem was that one week it not long enough in this beautiful area.

High quality apartment right in the heart of town
Our recent stay in The Old Exchange in Corbridge was a first class experience from the very first moment.
Situated above an art gallery in the heart of the small and very picturesque town of Corbridge, this apartment was furnished to a very high degree throughout. We had a choice of any one of three beautifully furnished en-suite bedrooms and both of us being keen cooks we found the kitchen contained everything we would need during our stay.
The welcoming owner not only gave us exceptionally concise directions as to ease our finding both apartment and parking space but in addition, having known that we were staying especially for our 25th wedding anniversary, had left a selection of goodies for us along with a most unexpected bottle of rather good bubbly!
In addition he called us to arrange a quick courtesy visit during our holiday both to meet us and to check that we were content with the apartment. Indeed we were.
We would heartily recommend both this apartment and the town of Corbridge to anyone looking for quality accommodation with excellent facilites close at hand.

The helpfulness and understanding from the owners of this property was exemplary,
The property itself is a delight being spacious, relaxing and very tastefully appointed, obviously a lot of thought and skill went into the interior design. Excellent en suite facilities
Corbridge is a beautiful place to stay and is steeped in history and is close to numerous attractions.
