    Everything, this property was a home away from home. I felt that I could have just moved in. Everything I needed was there waiting for me. I am a single mum with three teenagers and a puppino, they all loved the cottage and area. I was informed of the river walk that ran a minute away from the cottage, everyone loved it. The sounds and views were amazing.The people of Alston were all so friendly, we were sad to go. Loved the open fire as well. My boys are very tall going on for 6ft already and he loved the large bath as he could lay down in it unlike at home. Here were comfortable.

    Great central location but also very quiet. Well equipped, clean and tidy property. Ideal bolt hole whilst visiting Alston and the surrounding area.
