“We enjoyed the property.”
We were comfortable. The outside was secure for dogs as stated. Very nicely set up with just about everything you would need, just a few little extra things would have helped … which I reported. A little welcome pack would have been lovely, as the nearest shop open at the time of arrival would have been the garage at Kielder or Coop at Bellingham. We found it difficult to park as the front of the property is becoming very overgrown and we just had one large car, so not sure how two cars would have fitted (which is the description). Outside needs a little TLC, even the bike racks were inaccessible because of plants. There were some faults which we reported to Sykes. Eating out… The Blackcock Inn, just 30 seconds away was great for food and drink. Super friendly and super dog friendly. Really considerate people. We also found the Holly Bush at Greenhaugh great! Food fantastic. Again dog friendly, friendly and considerate. Vets…. We had an issue with one of our dogs and needed emergency vet assistance. Keep vet details in your phones because the whole area is poor for phone signal and if you need to internet search to find a vet, it’s not always easy, signal non existent or erratic. There is a vets at Bellingham, info in the welcome pack, they are the closest are only open 3 days a week, otherwise you have to go to their sister practice in Hexham, which we had to.
