Derwent Cottage is amazingly spacious and set in a wonderfully peaceful location. We had a fantastic week, making the most of the hot tub and seeing the local sites. Despite the remote location, the shops are surprisingly quick to get to. I'm keeping this place on my list to stay again in future.

We can't praise the owners enough. We had everything we needed in a spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable property. We had arranged for a caterer to set up for our Saturday evening and the owner opened up for us so we didn't have to return early from our day out. There's even a small, on-site shop the help with essentials. The views are amazing anRead mored the starry sky from the hot-tub was awesome. If there is a downside, it is quite remote, but within 30 mins if Durham so not too bad. Hide

Would highly recommend it, lovely views of the countryside, quiet and peaceful, no WiFi so if your a city type you're going to relax away from technology, fresh eggs to buy in the quaint shed that were absolutely beautiful to eat easy to find on the sat nav not far from Durham or Hexham

We have used many holiday cottages over the years and this ranks among the very best. There was even a welcome pack for our 'well-behaved' dog, and the level of equipment was very high. It is nice to see a cottage properly kitted out and not full of the owners' cast-offs. It is in a lovely quiet location and reasonably convenient for Hadrian's WallRead more, Beamish Open Air Museum, Gibside and other attractions. Hide
