  Just returned from weeks stay at The Dairy.

  Ideally situated for exploring Hadrian's Wall. First holiday cottage stayed in which has had excellent WiFi. Property very comfortable and clean, you can tell a lot of time and effort is put into maintaining and cleaning property between guests. Heated towel rail a bonus. Didn't need the two duvets which were on bed so had to remove one but sure this will be welcomed in the winter time. Would have been nice to have had some information provided on local attractions, places to visit, local walks etc. Didn't meet the owners but knew how to contact if there had been any problems. Parking not an issue, if you can't park at front of property there is plenty of space at the back. Would definitely stay again.

  Only door to property has a catch that doesn't work.

  We had to jamb cardboard into it to open it from the inside. An easy fix, buy a new handle. Its putting lives at risk no to. Property did not have a washer/dryer as listed. Broken clothes airer of no use. No vac. Dust pan but no brush! No cleaning supplies. Lovely big telly with broken screen, I.e big purple patches where the display is shot. Cheapest kettle possible. One loo brush between two loos. Some crockery chipped. In all a nice place but we felt we didnt get what we paid for as we had to rough it beyond what we are prepared to do on a holiday. The Dairy is a good name because someone's miking a cash cow without thought of customer safety or satisfaction.

  Curtains are shabby and falling off with no tie backs on some.

  The kitchen blind was filthy. There was dog hairs all over the setee in the living room. The bath panel was off. The shower blows hot and cold all of a sudden. No advice on local walks or nearby places to visit or eat. Just no real effort gone into the cottage considering the price. I was led to believe there was an enclosed garden when I booked. This is misleading on the website. Lack of parking. If it was wet I wouldn’t have been able To park on the grass.

  Our plan was to use Milton Mains Farm as a base for touring the area, Hadrian's Wall, Lake District, and even going down to Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

  It was so easy to find, I kept in contact with the owner Mrs Ackerley on the journey there regarding key handover, and she was there to meet us. She was extremely helpful, and showed us around. Nothing was any trouble. We had a week of beautiful weather, and the area was stunning, the autumn colours were amazing. We would seriously look at staying there again, and would recommend the place to our friends.

  Although we had a very enjoyable stay at The Dairy, it was a little out dated and in need of some repairs.

  Lots of cobwebs around, particularly in the windows. The main bathroom was very poorly lit and the shower leaked. BUT this DID NOT take away the home comforts this converted dairy offered. With its lovely big open plan kitchen, dinner and TV space, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Plus gorgeous views. Definitely worth what we paid for 7 nights!
