There wasn’t anything not to like. The property had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well equipped and was great to have a washing machine and dishwasher (even if one we didn’t use and the other just once!!). The sofa and bed were really comfortable and the bathroom was huge with a separate bath and large shower. There was seating at the front and back of the property which was great (even if we didn’t use!). We had a lovely welcome from the owner and a quick show round the property. The home made cake was delicious as were the eggs we had for breakfast on two of the mornings.

Loved the house itself, super gorgeous, we were met by our host who brought us to our room with a lovely blackcurrant jam sponge (Which was lovely by the way, compliments to the chef). The room had tea and coffee making facilities, a television with Freeview. The bed was great, I slept like a log, and the bathroom was lovely and clean with a nice hot powerful shower. Can't complain.

WiFi was a bit weak at times. But it's the countryside so it's to be expected

Lovely farmhouse, Louise and Angus were friendly and helpful, we had some great chats with Louise. Plenty of choice at breakfast, there was even a homemade cake in the bedroom when we arrived, lovely touch. Huge, thick and fluffy towels, and the bedding was so comfortable. Perfectly placed for the Beamish Museum, and the Angel of the North. We hope to go back one day, maybe with family, and book a cottage.

Absolutely nothing.

We appreciated the pre-arrival text to confirm our time of arrival. The room was excellent- lovely and clean- plenty of storage space- more than sufficient coffee and tea in the room- the bed was VERY comfortable. Breakfast was good and filling-- hosts were very friendly but not over-bearing. Close proximity to Beamish Museum and a very good Italian restaurant in the village. A very peaceful stay Thanks Louise and Angus

That we had to leave

The hosts were very friendly, welcoming,and went out of their way to help us locate places of family history. It is a very comfortable and homely place to stay. The bed, huge fluffy towels, and the delicious cake on arrival were superb. The location is fab. Thank you to Louise and Angus

This is a very lived-in family farm, and whilst we were happy with that, some people might not be

There was a change in the arrangements on my arrival so I stayed off site at another family property. It was immaculate and magnificently set up. The only thing that was a slight hiccup was an issue with breakfast: I thought that I had breakfast included but didn't...however a quick drive to the shops for toast sorted that and getting it ready in the beautiful kitchen was a dream. Fresh home made sponge on arrival more than made up for it.

I prefer a low pillow...the very generous ones were a bit high for my neck!!

Big comfy armchairs. Good sized room - space to spread out. High beds with good mattresses. Good breakfast - set us up for the day. Helpful and informative host. Angus went to great lengths to make sure I got the wi-fi up and running. Beautiful surroundings. Very handy for Beamish.

Self contained, cozy sitting room and easy to use kitchen. Beds comfortable. A good selection of dvds in flat. Eggs from farm a nice extra on arrival.

Information folder in flat a little out of date/ repetitive with multiple pages the same. Nil other comments.

Fully stocked kitchen with the added bonus of a delicious home cooked Victoria sponge cake on arrival. Very spacious living room and super comfy double bed with on suite bathroom with shower and separate bath.

Very small complaint the wi fi code in the apartment hand book didn't work but I admit I didn't ask the hosts about this as it was unimportant as I had very good mobile reception so used my own mobile data.

Very lovely place. This was our 2nd visit and again it was excellent. Very peaceful and quiet, comfy bed, clean bathroom and kitchen, the cottage had everything we needed. Delicious cake from the hosts, too.
