Fantastic place to stay and area to holiday in. We had a lovely relaxing time, even better that the dog could come too. The hot tub is just on the other side of the grass, nice and close to pop out for a late night dip and look at the stars - not light pollution! The seating area out to the front of The Dairy is great, really enjoyed watching the sRead moreunset and the views out. We highly recommend visiting the Lambley Viaduct and doing the walk around from the car park, it's about an hours walk at a good pace with lots of places for photos. Talkin Tarn is another great one to visit, great cafe and can buy duck food. There's a wonderful woodland walk from the door, if you head over the train tracks, turn right down the public footpath and continue straight you'll find yourself in Miltonrigg Woods. Overall a very nice place to stay with plenty of places to visit, and relaxing too. Great views out with plenty hot water and comfy sofas. We'll definitely be back again! Thank you. Hide

Great cottage, looks even better than in the photos! Well equipped kitchen and very spacious living area. Excellent location as you are able to explore some of the Lakes, Scottish Borders, Northumberland, and North Pennines within a reasonable drive.
