    The owner has furnished the property to an extremely high standard and welcomed us with a beautiful hamper of goodies! Would certainly recommend Hush Cottage if you want a quiet break and the luxuries of home.

  • "We were very happy with Hush Cottage, and felt it had been refurbished to a very high standard, using quality products."

    Alison, the owner was very obliging, and supplied a very generous welcoming basket of goodies.Our only reservations as an elderly couple was that the stairs were quite steep, and vehicle access difficult. A lovely, cosy cottage.

    Just missing the ice for a G & T sitting outside in the sunshine. Fortunately the very large and very cold fridge had loads of room so bottles went in fridge easily. Both bed and settee too soft if you have a bad back but otherwise brilliant.

    Real attention to detail which makes the place feel welcoming. Spotlessly clean throughout and with a great shower with heated towel rail and under floor heating for cooler days. Middleton in Teesdale is a lovely village, we enjoyed frequenting the local tea shops and Teesdale Hotel. Lots of scenic walks straight from the cottage as well. We would definitely book again.

    Hush Cottage is at the end of a short terrace just three minutes walk from the centre of lovely Middleton-in-Teesdale. Access to park outside the cottage is 'tight' if you have a large vehicle but with care is possible, however there is plenty of safe parking nearby. The cottage is beautifully furnished and was spotlessly clean. The log burner ensured that we were warm and cosy in spite of the cold temperatures. The bed was very comfortable and the quiet surroundings made for peaceful nights sleep. A generous welcome basket greeted us and we had everything we needed for a super break. Thank you
