We had a very happy week in this lovely, welcoming, beautifully decorated cottage. There was plenty of space for a family of 5 adults, and it was great having a shower room and a bathroom too. The kitchen was very well equipped as well. The cottage is in a very good location for visiting places nearby and further afield, such as Cragside and Holy IRead moresland. We had a great week and we would definitely like to return. Thank you. Hide
