  • "Lovely property with plenty of space for a large group of family or friends."

    Great bedrooms with 2 en-suite & 2 bathrooms. Good size separate laundry room. Spacious garden, not completely dog secure, but we managed very well. Hot tub was lovely to relax in. Owner is on hand if necessary. Lots of places to visit, walks etc. The Green Tree pub within walking distance serves great food usually need to book a table. Outside space has a tall wooden house/slide & swings for children to play. Overall we really enjoyed our stay, thank you Mark for your kind hospitality

    Downside is that fixtures and fittings were of poor quality, and cooking utensils were worn out or dirty. Nowhere near enough crockery for 10 people, fortunately there were only 7 of us.

    The home was clean and spacious. Kitchen is big and had everything we needed. Spacious bedrooms and clean with towels present . Hot tub was clean and well maintained. Garden was enclosed which was great for our two dogs. Friendly support if needed. Lovely pub down the road and a nice walk down to a stream . I cant think of anything bad to say except maybe the mattresses need updating. We loved the space outside and got very lucky with the weather. Our children loved it and would highly recommend this home.

    Huge space, well maintained, extremely comfortable. The garden was properly enclosed for the dogs. Couldn't fault the core offering. The gripes are trivial and fixable - more big pans, please, a bit more cleaning of the hot tub before guests arrive, and maybe relook at the angles of the security cameras to take them off guest areas and onto access points.

  • "Lovely big house and garden."

    We were a family of adults and kids celebrating a 70th bday party. Owner kindly gave us permission to have other family guests (mainly kids and elderly) over for an afternoon to celebrate a bday bbq and hire a bouncy castle. Extremely concerned that the owner had multiple cameras on the outside of the property. Three of these were pointing at the outdoor area and hot tub. This was not disclosed in the booking. We had children getting in and out of the hot tub and feel this is very inappropriate to have cctv on them. The owner visited daily to clean the hot tub and made several comments how dirty it was (don’t know what he expected when this was placed on the grass). He made lots of negative comments regarding previous guests. In reality we think he was checking up on us which felt very invasive.

We didn't leave the property for the 2 days we were there because the weather was brilliant and we were enjoying the hot tub and views too much! If the house had a larger fridge freezer or a second one in the utility, that would be a bonus as we did struggle to get all the excess amounts of food and drink that we bought into the single fridge freezer. We have already reccomended the house to others and would definitely return.

    Only negative point is there wasn’t enough comfortable seating for the 10 of us females to sit down together. Perhaps replacing the old bean bags, one of which kept losing its filling, with 2 small armchairs. However the hot tub was a big hit and owner very accommodating when we had a problem with it. We would go back again. Tudhoe is a pretty little village

    Everything was furnished to a really high standard and the open plan downstairs was perfect for socialising as a group. Not to mention the views from the back of the house, it was quick to forget there were even other houses around. There is plenty of parking with use of overflow out towards the back of the house. The owner was really nice and was there if we ever needed anything. Again, I can't recommend this enough, far enough away from town to feel secluded yet close enough that any shops you need are only a couple of minutes drive away.

    great little village too with nice pubs and 30mins walk into Spennymoor or even bus to Durham for the day. Feels very remote though and private. House was very nice loved the under floor heating. Only marked down a little because there were only stick kindling no logs for the fire so didn't last long and no way of cleaning the ash left previously. Hot tub great but would have been nice to have some robes/flip flops. I brought mine as know its a good idea with hot tub. Hot tub was clean and Owner Mark came to check on chemical levels etc. He was very friendly. A guest book would be good for any recommendations etc, and maybe some board games? Check out could do with being an hour later... everything had to be cleaned and put back, which is fair enough, however I didn't put dish washer on correctly over night so pots etc left in working dishwasher.
