Those three words summarise exactly what you can expect from this stay. It was so lovely to completely switch off from the rest of the world. Highly recommend if that's what you're looking for.

I can’t put into words how fantastic this stay was. The hosts were brilliant, were ready and waiting when we arrived with the fire lit for us. They showed us how the hot tub works (fabulous) and said to contact them if we needed anything. The cottage itself had anything you could want, plenty of things to cook with, lovely quirky old features - the place was immaculately clean. It was honestly beautiful, couldn’t have hoped for a better stay and we will 100% be back. Thank you so much

If you can make time to leave the incredible view and hot tub. It’s worthwhile spending some time walking locally. Alston is fantastic, cool off in the river on a hot day or explore the village cafes and pubs on a cooler one. Walk through the tall grass to the footpath in the valley. Follow the footpath up river. You’ll reach a waterfall about 1.5-2km away. Lots of places to see locally and some treasures to be found.
