Thoroughly refreshing stay!
Gorgeous property in a great location! Really enjoyed sitting out on the Village Green having some drinks from one of the two local pubs. Great base for touring North Yorkshire and Northumberland. We will return!! Thanks Michelle and Dave!

Lovely short break
The property is charming, set on the edge of a village green with plenty of space both upstairs and downstairs. The kitchen is fully equipped, the manual with instructions and walks is incredibly helpful and the hot tub a welcome treat!
