Bonnet Lodge is a fantastic wee cottage and Ruth is an amazing host. She couldn't do enough for us during our stay, and we appreciated the wee touches such as the fresh bread and scones from the bakery! We stayed here as it was close to Bellingham Castle and should I attend another function there, I'd bypass local hotels and book with Ruth direct - I even made sure to recommend her accomodation to the management at Bellingham Castle for when they are overbooked for weddings. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.
