“Unique, romantic, comfortable, stunning location and accomodation!”
The location at the top of the valley is amazing, short walk down the valley to Alston, a beautiful little village steeped in history. Lots of walks, just follow the sign posts. Everything is ready for you, hot tub, fire pit, they really have thought of everything... You can feed the geese and goats next to the hut and even Sammi the fox if your brave enough to handle her food! It really was a bucket list experience feeding her ! Highly recommend this accommodation and we will be back to try out the other two accommodations available x
