We had a lovely stay in Todhills. A very well thought out conversion. Well equipped kitchen and spacious living area. The bedrooms were comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces. Good WiFi throughout the property. We didnt use the hot tub but it looked nice. Garden area is very overlooked by another property.
Mark
Arrived and all guests were immediately impressed with the rooms space and the size of the property. Was totally impressed with everything included. Hot tub was fab and would definitely book again.
Kate
Beautiful, spacious cottage. Family friend space with high quality finish. Never been to the north east and great base to go and see local areas such as the beach, raby castle and high force water fall.
Pamela
The cottage was very nice, great for our daughters and grandkids. Very roomy. A lovely cottage which would benefit from a few more homely touches such as lamps and a rug in the living room area. We all Loved the hot tub. I would recommend this cottage if you like the countryside and short drives to many places of interest.
Lyndsay
Lovely house perfect for our needs with 6 adults and 4 children. Plenty of walking to do nearby and only a short drive into town. Very well set out family area with open plan kitchen and amazing table big enough for everybody to sit around. Hot tub was great and got very very hot!

Go Ape Northumberland - NE48 1NT
about 25 Miles
Go Ape! has really taken off and become one of the most popular attractions in the UK.  The Northumberland course is set in the stunning grounds of Matfin Hall.  Described as a high wire forest adventure this really is one for the more daring as the course takes place right up in the tree tops.  Giant tree top obstacle courses include ladders, bridges, tunnels and some of the country's best zip lines.  You will be provided with all safety equipment and training on site.
Big Sheep - EX39 5AP
about 28 Miles
This is a recommended day out for families with young children visiting the Bedale area of Yorkshire.  Visit the farm and receive a warm welcome as well as a guided tour.  You will have the chance to bottle feed the lambs, bath a pig and handle some of the smaller animals.  Kids will love the big sandpit and the outdoor play area. There is also a cafe and indoor play area for when the weather is not on your side.
