Charlotte

We had a really lovely time at this charming little cottage. It suited us perfectly, especially with our dogsand we felt so relaxed during our week there. The garden was a real plus - fully enclosed with tall fences, which was such a relief after some past experiences. The cottage was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. There was plenty to explore nearby, keeping us busy on day trips. Honestly, we wish we could have stayed longer - it was just that nice!

Emily

Really loved the cosy feel and how well everything was set up. Brilliant!

Emma

The cottage felt surprisingly roomy despite its size and was super cosy. It was peaceful and comfy, though a bit of WiFi would have been the cherry on top. We'd definitely come back if we get the chance.

We had a fabulous stay at the cottage! It was so clean and the furniture was super comfortable. The hot tub provided great funand we loved having a secure area for our dog to relax in too. When we met the hosts, they were really kind and friendly. This spot is a brilliant base for exploring the area, with loads to see and do right on the doorstep. We would definitely recommend a stay hereand we hope to be back soon!

Sami

We had a lovely time at this super comfortable, well-presented, dog-friendly property! It was clean and modern with a great layout. The bed and pillows were so comfyand we appreciated the fresh, clean linen and towels. There was plenty of storage for our food and clothes too. The hot tub was amazing for relaxing once we figured out the perfect temperature. Plus, the garden was fully enclosed with 6ft fencing, including a lockable gate to keep our dog safe. Thank you xx

Laurel

What a lovely place to stay! Nestled in a charming village not far from Durham, it's perfect for unwinding and escaping the hustle and bustle of life. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay (including dog bowls and treats, which was such a nice touch) - but honestly, the hot tub was our absolute favourite bit! We really can't recommend this place enough; it's a true credit to the owners, Amanda and Rob, who are super friendly and always willing to help when needed! We'll definitely be back :)
