Towndwellers forget how dark the countryside is - take a torch!! We had a very interesting tour of the lead mine at Killhope - good way to spend a wet day!

Mr Taylor, Tyne & Wear, Sunderland
Jul 2004 | As can be seen from my comments above the holiday was a great success. If I were to pick out sone qualities which made it extra special it would be the peace and quiet and splendid views. The abundance of wild life made it also very worthwhile. I would most definitely want to return to this area and if possible the same cottage.
