Fantastic barn conversion on a small farm with animals in the fields nearby and amazing views of the countryside all around. Secluded rural get away location with several supermarkets and Hexham town 10 minutes away and Hadrians Wall nearby. Beautifully fitted out accommodation with latest specification equipment (not always intuitive to operate!) Read more& very comfortable. Lovely, friendly and very helpful owners on site nearby. We loved it and would definitely book again! Hide

A fantastic stay from start to finish. Great, welcoming hosts, and a superbly appointed cottage with significant grounds which were ideal for our dog, who loved paddling in the river! Cottage very conveniently located for a number of nearby towns, with Hexham only 5 minutes away for all major supermarkets. The owners went out of their way to make uRead mores feel very welcome, and we left with the intention of returning later this year. Hide
