With so much thought, care and attention to the finer details the standard of accommodation is sublime. With many original features still intact it offers a wonderful blend of old and new. The spacious living room focuses upon a cosy wood burner set in a large inglenook fireplace; a restful place to rest and watch the flames dance after a day exploring the spectacular Northumbrian countryside that surrounds Blue House.

We had a great week at Blue House. It's a wonderful home from home. We particularly liked the lounge and it's excellent TV. The beds were very comfortable. We were helped to access the summer room, hint: the doors to it aren't locked, they simply slide open! The garden was excellent for our dog to run around in, it's very useful to be able to close the gate to effectively halve the garden. We did this so we could always keep him in sight. There was a strong smell of heating oil in the kitchen, not sure if this was normal or it needs looking at? We loved it and are already considering booking it again next year. Thank you.

The Blue House was a real home from home situated in a small hamlet. A very well equipped house and the garden was perfect for our Labrador.
