This is a lovely holiday home. Everything we needed for 6 adults and three small children. Lovely hosts who were very helpful and friendly. Very comfortable beds. Fully equipped kitchen. Very close to Gibside Hall. Would definitely recommend.

From start to finish our stay was brilliant and the house was brilliant, big bonus the hot tub drinking bubbly as i was celebrating my 70th birthday with family and friends. The house has everything you need, we took our food as my brother -inlaw is a chef 😋. Hopefully we get to come again x
