Fairbeck an idyllic & romantic woodland retreat

A charming, and beautiful cottage set within a courtyard in an idyllic ten acre woodland location. The cottage is every inch the beautiful setting for a romantic break away. The outside area of the cottage includes a raised platform & fire pit for your own use. Whilst it appears to be set in a remote rural location, it is in fact incredibly well-situated to be able to visit local attractions whilst being easily accessible from the main road: A1M . “A hidden gem definitely worth staying here!”

"HAY LOFT" quiet rural location, close to Durham

The Loft is located above our garage in a large garden and field totalling 8 acres. We're at the end of a farm track in the middle of the countryside, half a mile from the nearest road meaning ZERO traffic noise. The headroom is kind of tight along the two sides but, at 6 feet tall I manage okay. Perfect for two, but can easily cope with 4 people. The Loft is accessed by external concrete steps. The accommodation is not suitable for children but we've squeezed them in on occasions.

Murton Farm Steading

MaxineRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

This house is absolutely insane. The photos do not do it justice, it’s stunning. We came for a hen weekend. we were not there to party, we wanted a chilled weekend and that is what we got. All the rooms are absolutely stunning. We were overwhelmed how nice the house was. The gym, hot tub and sauna just adds to how great the house is. I can’t forget the games room upstairs, that was an added bonus too and was just amazing. I would 100% recommend this house for any families or friends wanting a nice chilled weekend. Mark and Sarah are always there either by email or phone and are quick to sort out any issues. Each room is clean and stunning ready for you arriving. What an amazing house. We were all gutted to leave as it was so lovely. Will definitely be going back.

Katharine was a very welcoming host. She had left helpful written information in the studio apartment. The accommodation was of the highest standard. Carefully thought out and very comfortable- especially the bed! Located a short walk or bus ride into town. Highly recommended.

Longriggs

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We had such a lovely stay at Longriggs! We were visiting for a wedding near by at ShortFlatt Flower (very close by!) and it was the perfect peaceful retreat after a busy few weeks and wedding. Everything was as describe, extremely comfy bed, outdoor cooking appliances and the outdoor bath was lush! Ideal place to switch off and relax, a USB charger for phone but otherwise just you the outdoors and lovely hot water! Id recommend taking some slippers and a wee fleece as it can get a little chilly, but once the fire is on you soon warm up. John was very responsive and dropped off ice packs each morning, there isn't much storage or space in the cool box so I'd suggest just taking food for a day or two, the shops nearby in Morpeth are very handy. Would highly recommend and can't wait to come back to drink coffee out on the porch again in the mornings.

High House Retreat

SharonRating, 5 stars1 day ago

Really enjoyed our stay here, lovely clean interior. It was a nice quiet location, spacious outside area and not overlooked. Parking was great. Hot tub was nice but unfortunately we could not get the temperature right so did not end up using it. Loved the horses who were in the field directly in front of us. Lovely to watch them whilst we sat in the garden area. Breakfast was continental style, and nice to be included in our stay. Thankyou I would recommend. A lovely peaceful stay.
