"The most beautiful cottage we have ever stayed in."
The decor is beautiful and immaculately clean, so tasteful. The hot tub was such a bonus and the views spectacular. The beds are so comfortable, as are the sofas. The cottage is so spacious and the attention to detail is second to none. Thank you so much for a wonderful week, we would love to return again in the future.

"Beautiful, cosy, spotless, spacious cottage situated on a quiet country lane."
Ample off road parking. 10 minutes away from Consett with all its large supermarkets and eateries. The hot tub was perfectly placed - not overlooked and taking in the rolling hills beyond. We loved our stay here and will be sure to return in the future. The owners were very friendly and chatty. Thank you for a lovely break. We will be back!

"Horsley Cottage is beautiful."
It’s high quality, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The beds and sofa are really comfortable, and all the fixtures and fittings are good quality. The peace and tranquility make it the perfect place to relax, enjoy the stunning views and listen to the sounds of nature. We loved it so much we’ve already booked our next stay.

"Absolutely brilliant stay, thank you so much!"
The views all around the cottage were stunning and it had absolutely everything we needed (every time we wondered - is there… you could find it! So well equipped which made things really easy). The hot tub is lovely and just the right temperature. Lots to do in the local area including Derwent Reservoir and a couple of kids play places in Consett (Jumbo Jungle and Believe and Be) as well as an old railway perfect for cycling and the local viaduct. Would highly recommend staying at Horsley Cottage, the Christmas tree and decorations were lovely as well.

"This cottage is more than we could have ever asked for."
We were travelling as 2 couples with our two little daughters. Both bedrooms had enough room for a travel cot and being all in one level meant they could toddle around safely and play together. The enclosed outside area meant we were able to have some time to explore. There is a lot to do for children in the area, all close enough to be able to get there and back before naps. The setting of the area was stunningly beautiful and watching the sun rise and set was a personal highlight.
The cottage itself is renovated to such a high standard. The doors and walls are all very soundproof so we weren’t disturbing each other whilst up in the night with the little ones. It was truly a home away from home. Extremely well appointed and had everything we could need or want. There were some wonderful little touches that just made the week so special.
Ruth, who owns the property, was extremely helpful and accommodating, even helping us with recommendations for local events. If you are considering booking this cottage, do it now, it’s a hidden gem.

"This cottage is one of the best I have stayed in."
The decoration of the cottage is very high quality and absolutely gorgeous. The kitchen has everything you need and more. Again beautifully designed. Great ensuite and main bathroom. Lovely showers and having two is a great bonus for 3 adults. The views from the living room is stunning over the countryside with the bonus of sheep, pheasants and rabbits. The bedrooms are a good size. There is also a laundry room which has very good white goods. A bonus.
The hot tub is fantastic. Just the right temperature and again stunning views. The gardens around the property are great too. Perfect.

The hot tub was fantastic, we used it every day (more than once most days!) and the views were gorgeous. It was so peaceful and relaxing. There are plenty of things to do within easy reach (we especially enjoyed visiting the beach at Seaham and hunting for sea glass and walking at Derwent Res - great play area and only 6 minutes away!) we’ve never been tempted to go back to the same place but would 100% return here, it’s left us feeling so relaxed and refreshed.
