Absolutely loved the accommodation. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable and clean. The bed was so comfortable! Nearby pub was excellent. Really recommend. By way of feedback, there weren't enough bath towels though and given the fact there is no shop nearby, a couple of basic items such as milk and bread would be a good idea.

Nice cottage but it was cold and the heating was locked so you couldn't alter the temperature also they are still developing other cottages so building vans around early in the morning the lady who greeted us was very friendly

Lovely place to stay, not too far from local attractions be that Newcastle or the beamish museum. Only tiny thing was possibly a little coffee table in or around the sofas.
