FUN AT THE FARM: I went to stay in a place named Cragend Farm with my mum, dad and sister Rosie. I loved it. I got to feed the 16 sheep, three cows, nine peacocks and 40 chickens. I also met three cows called Gem, Queen and Holly. On the farm was a black labrador called Bert. Rose and I loved him. I didn't want to leave!

Thank you for a wonderful stay at the cottage. Everything was perfect, and all the necessary amenities provided were well above our expectations. Locally there is so much to do, we loved the Seahouse's seal trip. The cottage is comfortable and everything was easy to use. The rooms are cosy and homely. Can't wait to come and see you again soon.

Exceptional historical farm accommodation with welcoming hosts. Beautifully restored farm in rural location just around the corner from Cragside. Lovely extra large bed in huge bedroom. Great fresh breakfast. Fantastic hosts, Lou and Shaun who really could not have done more to make us feel welcome. Just sorry we weren't able to stay longer!
