Incredibly clean, high quality finish, luxurious - perfect. Excellent location for getting to all the wonderful places to see in Northumberland. Longhornsley itself has a great little local shop and The Shoulder of Mutton pub is very nice - all a few minutes walk from cottage. We met the owner who was lovely & very helpful.
