Set in the most beautiful countryside with wonderful views. Comfortable and spacious, the Gingang was everything, we could wish for on our holiday, it was warm and welcoming. Beautiful well equipped kitchen. Very spacious lounge and bedroom, bathroom with shower. We loved everything about it. The peace and calm was just what we wanted from our break away.

Gin Gang was the perfect retreat for two. Ideally located for exploring the surrounding area.The welcome was warm as was the accommodation. It was spotless and very comfortable. The kitchen may be small but it is fully equipped and everything was in good working order. We had no problem preparing meals and if eating in would recommend Cranstons the butcher in Hexham. We ate at Cilantro,Stalida and Dipton Mill pub and would happily return to all three.Added extras, the bottle of red on arrival was very nice, we are looking to find some locally. There was a power cut on our first evening and the owner, Tricia, arranged for us to receive a thermos of hot water. It would be hard not to enjoy a stay at Gin Gang

Quirky, interesting and comfortable accommodation set in a tranquil area with some lovely views. Within easy travelling distance to many fascinating historical sites such as those found along Hadrians Wall and Beamish, a constantly expanding open air museum. Our host was both friendly and informative. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
