All the amenities you need within, for a relaxing break. Amazing walks and views in the surrounding area. Quaint village close by with lovely shops, especially the butchers and green grocer. Short drive to Kielder water, where there are also lovely views and walks. This was our third visit and we have booked again to go back again. Des and Carol

If you are looking for peace and quiet look no further. Gallow Law was so spacious, well furnished and equipped. Really comfortable beds and log fire was perfect for cozy evenings. The roll top bath was great after a day out. So much to do on your doorstep and Kielder is only minutes away. Dark skies were a delight on an autumnal evening. Definitely recommend the butchers and greengrocers in Bellingham and The Pheasant Inn at Stannersburn.
