Well equipped and furnished with lots of nice touches. A brilliant renovation. All perfect (except road to Alston currently closed which hampered venturing out and local sight seeing).
Derrick

Cosy, spacious cottage in a tranquil location. Well equipped with lovely extra touches like the coffee maker and home made lemon cake. The weather was chilly for the 2 days we were there but the log burner made it warm and cosy. The small river...

Beautiful location. A beautiful walk just on the doorstep. A great place to escape to. Cottage was spotless and so cozy. Also had everything we needed.

House is beautiful and the hosts left us a gorgeous ginger cake next to plentiful tea and coffee supplies! The log burner kept the whole place toasty and the Christmas tree was a lovely, cosy touch. All the rooms are well presented and very clean....

The cottage was beautiful, and very dog friendly. Greeted with a tasty lemon drizzle cake and some other treats which were a lovely touch, and enjoyed by all. Plenty of logs which came in very handy as it rained the entire time we were staying haha.
