“What a beautiful house!”
We had a lovely stay. Everything was spotlessly clean, plenty of room for 6 adults and 2 children. It was an ideal staycation (apart from the weather). We loved the sound system, the baths, showers and views from the windows. Our grandchildren enjoyed the garden and playing in the study with their toys. The beds were comfy and there was enough seating in the lounge and room round the table for meals in the dining room. There was plenty to do in the area. Due to coronavirus we pre-booked visits to Alnwick Gardens, Chester’s Fort, Belsay Castle and gardens. Ponteland is a nice town with a large park to walk round and has plenty of places to eat, we had a lovely meal at the Blackbird Inn. We can highly recommend The Smithy and are looking at booking again for next year.
