Ann T., UK - Cockfield near Bury St Edmunds, Eastern England

Liked: Cleanliness
A very comfortable place to stay in beautiful countryside. The property was well equipped with good facilities. It would be helpful to make it clear in the details that the only bathrooms are upstairs. The patio was pleasant place to sit in good weather but was a little run down. It’s lovely to stay on a working farm. The position is excellent for discovering the great variety of things to do in the Durham area.

Visit for Cricket world cup

A lovely and peaceful location perfect for what we wanted. Location to Chester le Street and Durham plus Beamish is perfect and if you want something a bit more lively Newcastle city is not too far away.
