United KingdomWhat a beautiful place!! The setting, just outside Alston, is breath-taking. And the facilities -- I do not exaggerate -- were perfect: comfortable, spotless room. Great shower! (Perfect after a day at an archaeology workshop on the fells above Alston!) Delicious, hearty breakfast (prepared to your specifications. Continental breakfast offered too.). The family were so friendly and accommodating. I can't wait to go back one day soon!

United KingdomThe welcome was friendly and helpful. The restaurant that we were recommended was very good. Breakfast was also good and the room was clean and the beds comfortable.
Simon
United Kingdom
United KingdomWe stayed at the guesthouse for one night during a cycling trip. We got a very warm welcome, including coffee and tea on the house and even stroopwafels (which we love being Dutch). It is a nice quiet place with beautiful views, but still at walking distance (only a 20 minutes) from Alston if you want to go out to eat. We got a good home-cooked full english breakfast in the morning.

Host review score
We bought our property in 2003. It's a former barn dating from at least the 1850's. A toll house stood 50 metres away on the old Turnpike road. We added our extension in 2007 with a tearoom and guest accommodation. We adjoin a working farm and experience lambing, haymaking and a good deal of snow.
All four seasons are much in evidence. With the arrival of Curlew, Lapwing and Oystercatcher in late March Spring is just around the corner. Nesting birds are flying in all directions. Bats chase each other round the walls in mid summer. At night they rustle in the eaves. Swallows re-appear in May and use the same nests in our newly built barn. We use a biomass boiler for heating and hot water and aim to be CO2 emissions neutral.
All in all we think our location is a sort of mini paradise to recharge batteries and chill out.
Our guest house is 1 mile out of Alston at 1,000 feet elevation. There are no neighbours. We are surrounded by wildflower meadows, fells and moorland. It is a tranquil setting with time on your hands to settle down and enjoy the garden and mountain views. Upland wildlife abounds and we keep free range hens. Be prepared for snowy conditions November onwards. If you wish to dine on the evening of arrival we can prepare your favourite repast by prior arrangement. Alternatively we have our own in house menu available on request. Prior booking essential. Alston has its own narrow gauge railway, several pubs and cafes, supermarkets and local craftwork studios.

Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
