Lovely week at Dovecote House. Comfortable, warm, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Plenty of space and yet the house felt cosy and homely. Good location with wonderful views, perfect for walking in the Cheviot Hills and exploring the area. The beds were so comfortable and the upstairs lounge, complete with reclining seats, was a great space for relaxing.
