Immaculately clean, well appointed and supremely comfortable accommodation. Airy and spacious with lovely views of the rolling hills of County Durham. Ideally situated within easy reach of many places of interest. We would happily return.

This has to be one of the best cottages weve ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean and very spacious, everything you could possibly need was provided. The location was incredible, views stretched for miles and the sunsets were breathtaking. Lots of places to visit, Raby castle only a short distance and Beamish 45 minutes. Even the coast is less than an Read morehour away. The owners were so lovely, we are already planning another visit. Would highly recommend this property. Hide

This cottage was perfect for our short stay in Country Durham. Christine (who is lovely) met us as we arrived and showed us around. She had left us some milk, tea, coffee and biscuits, which was a lovely welcome. The place was spotless and they provided a highchair for our little one. Beautiful surroundings too. Would absolutely visit again and recRead moreommend to friends and family. Hide

Had a lovely week at the Stables. The property was exceptionally well appointed and maintained. It had everything we needed and our hosts Ray and Christine were friendly and helpful. We hope to return to this peaceful location.
