We had a really lovely stay at Steelhouse Mill Cottage. Its a really cosy, well-kept place that feels peaceful and tucked away, perfect for a quiet break. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed, and it felt comfortable and easy to settle into straight away. Its got a nice homely feel without being fusy. The location is great if you want some quiet time, countryside walks and visiting the sites. It was really relaxing and away from the usual noise. A big bonus was seeing all the red kites flying over! A big thank you to Suzie as well for the great recommendations! Gibside was definitely worth a visit, and the restaurant suggestions were spot on too. The hot tub was a real bonus once the kids were in bed, perfect for relaxing in the evenings. Oliver also loved the trampoline and zip line. They kept him entertained! Communication with the host was easy and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Overall, a great little getaway spot and wed happily stay again

Steelclose Cottage is absolutely gorgeous. You could not ask for a better location. It's set in beautiful grounds. We were lucky to see a deer on the front lawn, so beautiful. Our hosts Suzie and Dan were so friendly and helpful. I couldn't be more happy with our stay. Highly recommend this cottage.
