Beautifully situated cottage with excellent amenities within easy walking distance. Cottage is very well equipped, comfortable and perfectly clean.

Everything was 5 star including the welcome hamper. It was a quiet village, with a few shops and pubs. There are plenty of walks for warm evenings. The A1 is a mile away, so very easy to get anywhere and the bus stop is 20 yards away (1hour to Newcastle).
