We spent 2 nights here to 'get away from it all' at New Year. Total peace, surrounded by nature. Well equipped, especially for its size! It was nice and warm when we arrived and the oil radiator was quite efficient. We loved it here.

This was a surprise weekend away for my partner and we absolutely loved it.The location is incredible and the carriage is gorgeous. We love birds and the tree outside provided us with loads within 5 minutes of arriving. The river at the bottom of the hill is breathtaking and we got up early each morning to see the dawn.We did the Red Kite Trail on the Saturday which starts right outside the farm and we visited Gibside on Sunday before heading home. The wildlife has been bountiful... it is such a beautiful part of the world. It has been the most wonderful weekend and I am sure we will visit again.
