Beautiful get away spot. Some great walks and very close to River Tees and Pennine way. We loved it hear. Quite remote, no neighbours. Stunning countryside. Highly recommend. Great value.

    “The location is idyllic. The cottage is well equipped, comfortable and cosy. We spent 7 nights there with our 1 year old and it was a really lovely, relaxing stay. Great to be able to go on family walks right from the property, Low Force waterfall...”
