Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: There was loads of space and the views out to the surrounding countryside are lovely. Particularly enjoyed the wood-burning fire and the ease of getting down to the Lanchester Valley Way for easy walks. Hosts Caroline and Jon were away when we stayed but left lots of lovely extras including delicious homemade cake, and kept in contact to make sure we had everything we needed. We hope to get back again sometime.
