What a stunning cottage, inside and out. Just returned back from a visit to Vale Cottage and it was fantastic. The facilities were exactly as stated, and pictures shown, the location was easy to find, but the views were simply beautiful. Would recommend to anyone, well definitely be back with the family.

This was the best dog friendly place I have stayed. The hot tub and views are the best and with two dogs we had plenty of space. I will definitely be back as the location was perfect for our Forest walks. Thank you for such a wonderful welcome with the bubbles and chocolate.

Lovely little cottage, great size and layout with everything you need for a getaway into the countryside! Lovely walks from the location and good location to explore the east Pennines and then to Seaham beach! The hot tub was amazing, looking out of the rolling fields was so relaxing! The welcome hamper was a perfect extra touch!
