Last minute getaway

This is a beautiful property which had everything we needed for our short break. The huge windows make it feel like living in a tree house. It's a great place to relax - very comfortable. We found lots to see and do in the local area. It's well worth a return visit

10/10 Excellent

A spacious and luxurious stay in what feels like your own personal nature reserve.

A perfect getaway for those who want to get away from it all. Floor to ceiling windows offer incredible views over the burn and surrounding woodland. The area is teaming with wildlife which will provide you with hours of entertainment from inside or out. Relax in the hot tub while taking in the incredible scenery. A short drive into Longtown for any amenities you need. Highly recommend Spice Fusion takeaway if you like a curry. The staff are accommodating and will amicably resolve any issues you have. I honestly can't say enough good things about these guys. Even gave advice on local historical points of interest which I walked to. Very easy to find and access from the M6. Short drve to Gretna or Carlisle. Looking forward to visiting again. Big thanks to Jarod,Trevor and family for being so accommodating.
