"Property needed a deep clean. I sneezed a lot and had black dust come out of my nose. Heating didn’t work sometimes and the room was quite cold. I booked through Expedia and check out said 11 am and I wasn’t told any check out time by the owner. On the morning of check out a cleaner knocked at the door and we shouted we were still inside. I popped to the loo and finished packing my back when the cleaner knocked again which I thought was odd so I double checked on my emails and then clarified the...

"The Hen House cottage was a great place to stay for our trip in the Durham area. The village of Brandon is a beautiful location for going for walks in the countryside and with a great pub/ restaurant called the Bay Horse Inn on 50m away it’s a perfect place to stay. The village is very close to the historic house, chapels and gardens of Ushaw and Brancepeth Castle, which are both excellent places to visit!! Would happily stay here again when visiting the area as it’s a perfect little...

"Enjoyed our 3 night stay in this very tranquil property…. Great dining Orangery very quirky kitchen via spiral staircase in the basement and great views from the Hot Tub"

"We very much enjoyed our stay and the cottage is ideally placed for us to visit family in Blyth and explore the surrounding areas. The cottage is very well equipped and has been done up to a very high standard. Thank you Anne, we look forward to visiting again."

"Brilliant place to stay as a family, very clean and lovely place to stay, location by a private farm in the sticks you’re surrounded by grass, views, water and horses it’s beautiful. Great size accommodation and with modern kitchen and bathroom making staying here great. Located close to mainly areas, Beamish, Newcastle, Durham etc. Can’t recommend this place enough a lovely cozy warm stay."

"Beautiful house, super clean with all the amenities you could wish for. There is no WiFi however. The host said there was internet through the telly but there wasn’t and he then stopped communicating whilst we were trying to sort it out."

"If you’re looking for a lovely quiet break out in the open countryside of County Durham, this is ideal. Also not far to explore places like Durham. Two bedrooms, each with en-suite suits a family group. Living room and kitchen are a good size with most of what you need (though note there is only a fridge - no freezer and no washing machine). Had a comfortable, quiet stay."

"Fantastic location Lots of walks direct from the barn Good facilities in a quiet location This will definitely be our accommodation of choice when visiting family in the area"

"Amazing wee olde worlde cottage in a great wee village that is central for driving to other areas but also great for walks in & around the village. The cottage is so lovely & quaint & although small plenty space for 4 people. Such a lovely place."

"Very cosy, welcoming place. Everything you need is available even some groceries for the first days."

"Just so comfortable, brilliant layout and amenities. Close to City, countryside, East coast beaches and local pubs. Fabulously safe for dogs (as long as they are used to noise from near neighbours in similar holiday home complex)"

"The cottage was lovely, clean and cosy. But the cottage its self is very remote . You need to get your supplies before you get there as there is nothing in the cottage has in a welcome pack . The hot tub was only luke warm and was never checked all weekend. Which wasnt good ! I was expecting it to be hot / warm . The cottage could do with suppling a few essentials like salt , pepper , oil and more than 1 toilet roll for 2 toilets . But the cottage itself was nice, clean and well presented,...
