The five places split into two groups. Two houses sleep eight with four bedrooms and usually cost similar amounts a night. A six-person, three-bedroom place and a one-bedroom cabin for three are noticeably cheaper, so the choice of budgets is wider than the small number suggests. The 16-guest house with six bedrooms is the dearest by a long way. If you are a couple or a small family, the cheaper two are the ones to look at. For bigger groups, divide the nightly price by the number of adults before comparing.

Rochester here is the small Northumberland place near the Cheviot edge and the Otterburn ranges, not the Kent town, and the stays reflect that. These are mostly large houses for groups rather than compact two-person cabins. Places typically sleep eight, and the biggest takes 16, so this suits family gatherings, birthday weekends and friends sharing the cost of a night.
Every place has a hot tub, which is rare. Four in five accept dogs in some form, though a few only on request. Log burners are less common and appear in two of the five. Usual prices run high for the region because of the group sizes, with the largest house far dearer than the rest. One small cabin for three sits at the cheaper end, and a six-person place with a sea view is also well below the group houses. A week costs about the same in winter as outside it, so the season changes little here.
The hot tub is the one constant, so it will not help you choose between places. Gardens come next, at three of the five, and those places are usually cheaper than the group houses. Log burners and high chairs each appear in two places, both at a higher usual price. A sea view, a private pool, a swimming pool and a BBQ each appear once. The pool and BBQ belong to the largest and dearest house. If a dog is coming, check each place, since some accept pets only on request.

Prices move within a narrow band. December is the dearest month in the run, followed by November and January, which are level. February and March are cheaper, and March is the lowest. April edges up slightly. Availability goes the other way: November and December have the fewest free nights, while March and April have the most. If you want a winter weekend, leave more time to book. Late winter and early spring offer more dates and slightly lower prices.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £435 | 44% |
| December 2026 | £450 | 43% |
| January 2027 | £435 | 59% |
| February 2027 | £411 | 65% |
| March 2027 | £398 | 84% |
| April 2027 | £411 | 77% |
Nearby areas give you more to choose from. Felton has the most places in the group, and Swarland has a good number too. Newton on the Moor has the lowest starting price of the neighbouring places, while Newcastle upon Tyne and Otterburn start higher. Wooler and Felton start at the same level. If Rochester's group houses are too dear or booked, these are the places to check next, especially for smaller parties who do not need a large house.
Yes, every place has a hot tub. That means the tub is not a way to separate them, so compare bedrooms, pets and extras such as a log burner or pool instead.
Mostly they are built for groups. One small cabin sleeps three and is usually the cheapest. Couples may find a wider choice in neighbouring areas such as Newton on the Moor.
Only slightly. December is the dearest month, but February and March are a little cheaper. A week in winter costs about the same as a week outside it.
Yes, the largest house, which sleeps 16, has an indoor pool. It is also the dearest place. The others have a hot tub but no pool.
