Stayed here for my girlfriends 30th. Had a wonderfull time. Fantastically decorated property and very cozy inside. Hot tub and log burning fire were perfect for a winter weekend away. Owner Michelle was to communicate with and allowed us early/late check in as property was vacant which was a nice gesture. Would definatly recommend and will be booking again

Thanks for such a lovely review Alistair. It was a pleasure to have you stay and we look forward to hosting you again in the future. Very best wishes Michelle
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!
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!
