A Beautiful spacious barn conversion in a quiet rural location with plenty to explore close at hand. Well equipped with plenty of crockery, cutlery and a good selection of cooking utensils.Friendly owners. A log burner for cosy evenings indoorsSo much history in the area. We were surprised to learn there is a plaque to William Shield in the local church. It is the William Shield festival at home on Tyneside at the moment.Good walks nearby. The area is so unspoilt that my OS map from 1976 was as useful 50 years on. The village shop in Netherfield is a must. Again, a throwback to how village shops were.

We have just returned from a most enjoyable stay at Ox Lodge Barn. The accommodation is spacious, well equipped and extremely comfortable. If you want peace and quiet in lovely countryside then this is the place for you. Our one regret is that we did not stay for longer. Highly recommended
