Beautiful cottage, so clean and well equipped. Fresh bread, cake and eggs waiting for us on our arrival.

Cottage was very warm,clean and well equipped Lovely rural locationNice welcome pack and helpful owner

A lovely little modernised cottage, that retains its charm situated on a farm, although you wouldn't know it as there was no noise to disturb us. Amanda our host met us and made us very welcome along with providing freshly baked bread, butter, eggs and flapjack! The cottage appears small but is big enough to accommodate four and boasts an excellent shower. The cottage is located in a small quiet village amongst hills and rolling fields, so you will need access to a car.

We are from South Somerset and it was our first time in the North East. On advice from friends packed wellies, waterproofs, jumpers in abundance but the sun shone the whole week. I know probably luck but it made for a wonderful week of exploring the area. The cottage was lovely. The smell of baking bread in the kitchen when we arrived along with all the other delicious gifts were welcoming. Amanda met us and answered any questions and we settled in. There was nothing we needed as everything was on hand.We were out every day and visited Hadrian's Wall, High Force, The Angel, Beamish - we even gatecrashed a Christening in Durham Cathedral on Sunday which was lovely.All in all we can recommend this as a great place to base yourself for the area with such a cosy cottage to come back to. Regret? Yes there has to be one in every holiday doesn't there. It wasn't cold enough to light the fire.
