Husband went raiding and I went there just to chill out. Kids who are all always on the phone enjoyed a days without a phones as there was a playground and horses over the road. Place was homely and clean. Pub is just 5 houses down with most amazing food. ##### Ieva Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ian 27 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Cant rate the cottage highly enough.

Good communication, nice folder on the table for arrival with lots of local info 👌 first class we will be back 👍 ##### Charlie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janice 13 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Immaculate property in convenient location This immaculate terraced cottage is deceptively large inside and has open views front and back. The kitchen has everything you’d need, including a washing machine and dryer. My double bed was comfy and the shower in the bathroom is the most powerful one I’ve ever used-bliss! There’s plenty of free parking in front of the terrace just off the A road. Road traffic was minimal and therefore road noise was not an issue. There’s no shop within the village but there is a pub at the end of the row which serves food to eat in or takeaway. I collected a meal for one of garlic mushrooms which came with a slice of garlic bread and salad garnish, 10” pizza and a slice of chocolate orange cake-all for just £12. What a bargain. I’d also recommend the Greenhouse cafe at Lanchester garden centre, only about a four minute drive away, their cooked breakfast was delicious and the cakes looked amazing. If you’re travelling with children the centre also has a small tropical zoo, owls and play area which I didn’t explore-entry is £4. Knitsley farm shop near Consett is also worth a visit for their fantastic range of produce and small cafe. The property is perfectly placed to explore the many tourist attractions and lovely rolling countryside. The fantastic Beamish museum, imposing Angel of the North, historic Durham and beautiful east coast are all just a short drive away. I’d love to return here again-what more if a recommendation can I give. ##### Janice Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqueline 28 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Check in was by a text prior to our artival, giving full instructions.

Property very clean and had all the amenities we required. Very thoughtful provided us with coffee tea milk bread biscuits etc. Could not fault it. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really lovely cottage, tastefully decorated with everything you need for a great stay and Clare is a superb host. The rooms are all good sizes so if the weather was poor it would still be a nice break. There's a lovely walk from the door and a bus stop with several daily services to Durham so it's even possible to visit without a car. The only thing I'd add is to drive down the main road a little further than Google Maps suggests & you'll see the off road parking & sign for the cottage. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful home We had a very comfortable stay at this lovely cottage. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### john, Lindon 12 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Home comforts Beautifully restored cottage.
