Stone Cottage

A little gem for an airport stay. Very welcoming on arrival and a lot more personable than a large airport hotel . Only 2 mins from airport, but no aircraft noise ! And very reasonable rates of pay. Lovely pub down the road for dinner . Highly recommend!

Made to feel at home and very welcome from the moment we arrived. We stayed two nights while playing golf nearby. The accommodation was spotless and the location excellent, with Ponteland a casual 15/20 minute walk away. The Badger pub which serves nice food is only 3 minutes away ! The airport is just along the road but I can honestly say that we were not aware of any aircraft noise during our stay. I’d recommend staying here and if I’m in the area again I will !

No one there on arrival, but did receive a text to say keys were in a safety box. Room was rather dated, and pretty average to be fair for the price of £80. The shower only seemed to have one temperature, “luke warm”. Towels as dry and stiff as cardboard. No shower gel, shampoo, conditioner or hairdryer or anything like that. Didn’t even ask when we checked out “how was your stay?” Two main issues here… 1- the mattress had no life in it, literally lay on it and you went to the slats supporting it. So uncomfortable, both me and my partner had a terrible nights sleep and both woke aching. 2- i accidentally spilled a bit of mango chutney sauce dip on the carpet, and cleaned it up as best I could. (Bearing in mind this is a guest house and the carpets are far from “spotless” anyway). The owner then told me the carpet needed “vaxed” and I would have to compensate them for this. He asked “what do you reckon” (meaning how much should I pay)… I replied..well what do you reckon? He replied…”well a tenner cash will do”. 🫢 So £10 cash to vax your already dirty carpet and remove one little stain. Maybe put the £10 towards getting the cracked windows in the entrance door replaced. I was going to use this place twice a month at weekends as I work in that area. If I do decide to use it again, at least I’ll know the carpets clean in room one now eh. I actually could have complained about the mattress on leaving but I thought “nah just leave it”…but to then be charged £10 to vax the carpet…wow….really think that’s a bit of a p*S$ take to be quite blunt.

Stayed here as a solo traveller after landing at the airport in the early hours. Communication was excellent from the owners who assured me how to access my twin room. The cottage is lovely, has lots of character and you can tell it’s well loved. The room has everything you need and has a very personal feel about it. I often use the local chain hotels but I would highly recommend you use this, as I will be next time I use Newcastle Airport. Thank you for a very welcoming stay!

Very welcoming and a lovely place to stay, plus an easy walk from the airport. Spotlessly clean room and a great English breakfast. Will definitely return. The badger pub is a 5 minute walk away and serves good food.

We stayed at Stone Cottage for 2 nights on our way upto Scotland and was made very welcome and very clean comfortable room and a great full English breakfast nothing to much trouble from the family 💞 would definitely stay again👍
