    Our stay in Ann's beautiful home was perfect. Breakfast was excellent, she made us feel so welcome, booking us an evening meal locally and giving us ideas for days out which helped to make the most of a short visit.

    Our host Anne made us feel at home straight away with a log fire and tea and cake in the beautiful sitting room. The bedrooms were nicely furnished and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was very tasty with a great choice of fresh fruit. Anne was extremely welcoming and helpful.

    Cannot think of any negatives.

    Wonderful host. Ann was very welcoming, and knowledgeable about the area. She directed us to a wonderful meal at a local pub. Also sent us a computer mouse that we left behind! Breakfast was outstanding. House and facilities were wonderful. comfortable -and enormous- bedroom. comfortable bed, slept very well. Location is very close to the attractions of Hadrian's wall, and in lovely countryside. Absolutely excellent stay

    We were welcomed warmly by our host. The breakfast was excellent. The bedroom and bathroom was huge and we were well provided for, with fruit in the bedroom, and a fantastic lounge available for our use with other guests. This is a beautiful and interesting house and would have no hesitation to return again.

    Can't think of anything!

    The Gin Gan is a real gem! We had an extremely comfortable and spacious bedroom and a spotless adjoining bathroom with both walk-in shower and bath. There are some nice little touches too, with ample refreshments with fresh fruit and water provided each day as well as a pair of bathrobes! The downstairs sitting room is superb and there are many local guide books and maps to ensure you get the most out of your stay. The house itself is set in an extensive garden with two or three comfortable seating areas should the weather be kind enough to allow you to sit outside. It really is delightful. There’s a great breakfast choice from cereals and fruit to a full English and everything is cooked to perfection. The accommodation is ideally placed to serve as a base for all of the sites along Hadrian’s wall, Hexham town and some very nice National trust sites are within easy reach. But that’s only the half of it, what makes it really special is the hostess, Ann. She welcomed us with hot drinks and fruit cake and really made sure we got the most out of our visit by helping us plan our itinerary and making recommendations for visits and places to eat. Ann made us really feel welcome and it was more like staying with a friend than anything else. ‘Make yourself at home’ said Ann, and we did – it was lovely! Jeff & Steph

    A pity this isn't in County Galway!!!

    Multi-option breakfast was excellent. The hostess (Ann) was welcoming, friendly, attentive, charming and genuinely interested in your welfare and comfort. The room and bathroom were spotless, elegant and extremely comfortable. The downstairs living room equally so along with the magnificent tended gardens. We have been in hotels/B & B's throughout Europe/USA - this is now our new No. 1. Ann, thank you again for an excellent stay. A very easy 10/10. Brian & Anke.
