• "Had a fantastic stay - what an amazing property!"

  The house is really spacious, comfortable and warm and we loved the hot tub and summer house too. The owners were really friendly and helpful. Had a really lovely meal at the Fox and Tree 5 minutes walk away and spent time seaglass hunting at Seaham beach. I had a fabulous time celebrating my 50th - this place made it very special - thank you.

• "This is a fantastic property, loads of space, really lovely wood panels, and feature mirrors on the stair case."

  The owners Richard and Denise very friendly and we could see they have spent time, and thoughts on getting this a top holiday destination. The hot tub and wooden chalet is an added positive, and the grandchildren enjoyed playing in the large garden. We all (6) enjoyed the stay, and will be back to stay again ASAP Many thanks to the owners for going extra mile for Halloween with the children. The Leatham Family, stay Oct 2024

• "Very spacious property set in its own grounds so lovely and private and secure as it has electric gates to the driveway."

  Very well situated for all amenities, shopping centre very close should you need anything, but far enough away that didn’t cause any issues. Lots of destinations within easy reach by car as the house is just off the main road system. Would definitely recommend.

• "The property was outstanding with every possible amenity including the hot tub which we used every day."

  The gardens were amazingly well maintained & provided great exploration for our 2 grandsons as well as football fun. The large parking area provided excellent space for our 2cars. Internally the house was beautifully spacious, incorporating a blend of vintage & modern decor with lovely additional features. The owners could not have been more helpful & were on hand to answer all our queries. We will use again & would highly recommend to any future users.

  Hi Derek Thank you for your kind review. It was a pleasure meeting you all and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. We would love to see you all again and tell the boys the hot tub is waiting! All the very best Richard and Denise. Property Owner

• "This property is a great find and allowed us to visit lots of places in Northumberland, whilst visiting my son at Durham University."

  The house is extremely spacious and comfortable and has the added bonus of a hot tub, which was a fun addition to our stay. We explored some lovely places including Beamish, which was a very interesting experience going back in time, and the pretty sights of Hexham and Corbridge, which had a fabulous cake shop (Grants) that was a sight to behold!! I would thoroughly recommend Glebe House and Richard and Denise are wonderful hosts who live next door and make sure everything runs smoothly. It was a great week and if we visit the area in the future will definitely re-book!

• "We had a great time at Glebe House."

  It is large and spacious for 6, but still has a very homely feel. We stayed there primarily to attend a wedding at the Dalton Pump House which is just a short walk away… as is the excellent Fox and Tree pub - albeit in the opposite direction! We stayed on and took the opportunity to use it as a base to explore the many places a short drive away - including Durham, Beamish Museum, Newcastle, Tynemouth Market… the list goes on! …And it’s always nice to jump in the hot tub to discuss the days events on your return. Richard and Denise are excellent hosts - giving you space and privacy, but always happy to have a quick chat when you set off on your days adventure. We highly recommend Glebe House for a stay in this area.

  Glad you enjoyed your stay David. Thank you for the feedback, we really appreciate it. It was a pleasure meeting you all and we'd love to see you back here some day. All the very best Richard and Denise. Property Owner

• "We had a great time at Glebe House, the location was perfect for our group looking for a quiet few days and coastal walks."

  The house was well equipped and exactly how it was advertised. The summer house is a great asset and I'm sure would be perfect for warm evenings. We only had one minor disappointment and that was the lack of a downstairs toilet, especially if you were sleeping in the master bedroom with the open plan on-suite. Overall it is a lovely house and a great base for anyone wanting to explore the North East.

  Hi Julie. Glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your comments. We have noted the comments about the extra toilet for guests and are working on a solution. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks. Kind Regards Richards and Denise. Property Owner

• "The property was extremely well appointed and very comfortable."

  We didn't use the master bedroom except for the walk-in shower, which was excellent, because it was too big for us! The kitchen was well laid out and quite easy to use, although I couldn't find any kitchen scales; it didn't make much of a difference! The living room was spacious and warm, with a large TV, which we only used a couple of times. The one fault I'd say it has is no downstairs toilet. Again, it's a minor fault.

  Thanks for the feedback Peter. The downstairs toilet issue has been mentioned before and we are hoping to install one in the next couple of months. All the best Richard and Denise. P.S. the kitchen scales are a flat, black digital set in the drawer under the hob. They are a little difficult to spot. Property Owner

• "Very large house, sparsely furnished, certainly not enough furniture in the lounge for 6, which is very uncomfortable for a weeks stay, no cupboard space in the kitchen for food storage, for such a large house it definitely needs a downstairs toilet!"

  ! And the open bathroom in the master suite is not very appealing. The traffic noise is a constant 24/7 and you definitely need a car. There is a lot of techno in the house which needs definitive explanation.

  Thank you for your feedback on our property. I'm sorry that you felt that there was limited furniture; we can comfortably house 6 people in our property and we have not had complaints about this before, as you can see this is a large property. Unfortunately we cannot help that there is traffic nearby and we try to make all our guests as comfortable as possible, as you can see from all our previous glowing reviews.
