    Fabulous accommodation with everything we could possibly need. Thankyou also for the lovely welcome goodies, much appreciated. So much to see and do around here without travelling more than 30 minutes. Highlights for us included Rothbury and the Simonside Hills, a visit to Bamburgh and the Castle, a walk from Ingram up to Linhope Spout (nice cafe in Ingram too), Alnwick and Chillingham Castles, and Holy Island. Would definitely return!

  • Stephen

    Compact but clean and well-equipped it is ideally placed for walking and touring the region. We would certainly stay again and recommend.

  • Alison

    Everything we needed was to hand. Very clean & tidy. Everything was easy to use.
