      A comfortable property in a quaint and quiet area of Staindrop.

      An ideal position to visit castles,gardens and countryside etc.First impressions of a place are very important to us and we were delighted with the gesture of a bottle of wine ,coffee etc and milk,biscuits and a box of dog accessories!The owner had made a special effort to display literature and stamp her mark on the place with pictures etc to make you feel at home.The kitchen was well equipped and well stocked for some cooking etc.There was a small but safe backyard for our dog.The bathroom was spotless and the bedroom was lovely and we slept well in a comfortable and clean bed. The only slight concerns were that the property can be a little dark and required lights on and the kitchen taps are a little too far back from the sink and one had to make sure they were fully turned off Thank you Jo for your initial welcome .You have put a lot of effort into this place.Barrie and Jacqui

      This was a very easy experience.

      The photos were accurate. Once booked the host contacted me which was a nice touch. A warm welcome was given by the lovely scones with milk and tea and coffee and eggs being provided. I also enjoyed the lovely posy of fresh flowers. The property was lovely, great log burner and one of the comfiest sofas I've ever sat on! The bedroom was a good size and the bed was also very comfortable. A few steps away from the cottage the lovely small town of Stanhope which had a healthy buzz about it and a few nice wee shops and places to eat and drink. Everything had been thought of when equipping this cottage and I appreciated it a lot. I would recommend to anyone thinking of going to this area and thank you to my host, Mark, good job! :-)

    • Andrew - Verified booking

      This is a great cottage situated in the centre of Stanhope (but away from the main road), only minutes from the excellent selection of shops and pubs.

      There are lots of great walks right from the doorstep, including the excellent Ashes Quarry just a couple of minutes walk away. The cottage is well maintained and nicely decorated. On entering, there is a small hallway, with space to hang coats. The large lounge was comfortable, with a nice big sofa and good sized TV. The kitchen had everything I needed, including things like teabags, sugar, salt & pepper etc. The main bedroom was nicely furnished, with a good bed and sufficient storage space. The bathroom had a bath tub (which is a big plus for me), the only drawback being the rather small wash basin, which I found a little awkward to use. I very much enjoyed staying here, and would certainly return.

      Wonderful cosy cottage in the heart of Stanhope ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent communication with owners.

      The cottage was perfect for myself and my husband, teenage son and our Labrador. The bedrooms were super cosy, with comfortable beds. Bath and shower over bath convenient, could have a lovely soak or a quick shower. Log burner in living room was wonderful in the evening to relax and enjoy TV. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook full meals, though we did enjoy an Indian Takeaway on a couple of occasions.... Welcoming scones were superb, with cream and jam (and tea, coffee milk all provided too). Stanhope is a wonderful little village to explore with lots of wonderful walks from the doorstep to explore with the dog. Excellent accomodation, very reasonably priced. We loved our stay, thank you!
