“This holiday cottage exceeded our expectations and we had a fabulous week exploring the North East.”
The only issue we could foresee (but wasn’t really an issue for us) was that the bathroom (a very beautiful and spacious bathroom) was located downstairs and the stairs up to the bedrooms were quite steep and narrow, so something to be aware of, as this may be difficult for some older / less agile guests.
The walled garden was fantastic for the dog, and with a large gate to the cottages it felt very secure for both dogs and children.

We were fortunate in that most of the cottages were unoccupied for much of the week, however we did think that parking may be slightly more difficult if each cottage was occupied and each had a car parked outside.
The cottage itself was beautifully furnished, more spacious than some reviews would have us believe, was warm - centrally heated, additional underfloor heating in the bathroom, plus a beautiful log stove fire in the lounge /dining area.
The kitchen was so well equipped we had no problem at all preparing a 3 course Sunday Roast Lunch!
A simple cleaning pack (dish cloth, bin liners, dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid) plus a small welcome pack of tea/coffee/sugar/milk sachets and a few packets of biscuits were a welcome and unexpected addition. Much appreciated. Enough logs / paper / matches and firefighters were available for us to build and light 3 fires during our week long stay.
It gets very dark at night, so advisable to pack a torch!
Overall … A brilliant week, in a beautiful location, in a beautiful, well furnished, well equipped, very comfortable homely cottage.
