We've had a busy first couple of years, and we're getting returning guests already. The feedback has been very good -
here is a sample of what has been written in the visitors' book:

"The best cottage we have ever stayed in - truly home from home. Great countryside too. We all had a brilliant time - children and adults alike.
Thank you for putting so much thought into every detail - really makes a difference. Very impressed by the space and equipment..."
"Had a great stay here, loved the spa bath, wide-screen TV & Playstation ... River great
to swim in ... Loved cycling along Tees Railway Walk.
One of the best places I've ever stayed in. Will certainly recommend. Want to come again."
