Hoodgill Barn, Newbiggin

Excellent stay ! We will definitely book again 100

Our weekend at Hoodgill was perfect from start to finish. I booked the cottage for my 30th birthday and had a very enjoyable stay. I was very impressed with the cottage spacious but cosy, very comfortable and absolutely spotlessly clean. It had all of the amenities we could want and need for the weekend. The appliances were easy to use and we were shown how to use the hot tub before the property owner left on the first day. Peter the owner met us at the property on the first day. He was immediately warm and welcoming. He showed us around the property and I was struck by how much more spacious the house was in reality in comparison to the photographs online. Peter reassured us that if there was anything we needed, he was only a phonecall away. He also gave some great recommendations, being very knowledgeable about the area. We visited the Forressters for lunch on the first day as per his recommendation food was lovely, affordable and we enjoyed the dukebox in the bar area. Not a negative for us at all but perhaps seen as an inconvenience to some there are only 2 designated parking bays but other parking was close by and within walking distance. There was plenty to do nearby but we enjoyed our time spent in the cottage. I was sad to leave and will definitely be booking a return visit hopefully in the not so distant future! I had the best weekend with all of my favourite people under one roof. We all commented on how much Hoodgill made the weekend. It was the perfect space great house, super location, amazing host. The perfect mix of fun & relaxed. Thanks again Peter!

Great holiday cottage very clean and warm, and everything works. Beds comfortable. Quiet peaceful location with lots of wildlife to be seen from conservatory. Excellent area for walking , shops 10 minute drive . Had a lovely week.

This is a charming, wellpresented cottage that offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The owner greeted us on the day of arrival and provided a thorough explanation of everything. If you're seeking peace and quiet, along with stunning scenery, this is the perfect retreat. On clear nights, the stargazing is simply magical. The kitchen is also wellequipped for all your needs. All I can say is what are you waiting for book it.

We stayed here for 5 days at the end of November as a short break for our sons 40th. We met Peter on arrival where he showed us around this fabulous property. A true home from home. The walks were great and the Low Force, High Force and Gibsons Cave are a must. We were snowed in for one day. Peter messaged to check on us and the neighbours came to check that we had the essentials. It was the perfect day for the hot tub. It was the perfect break for us. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic place to stay! Amazing location, comfortable, cosy and just what we wanted for my parents Golden Wedding anniversary with the immediate family

This was our second visit to the lovely Hoodgill Barn & we loved it just as much as the first. The house is charming, roomy & well equipped. The hot tub being inside the garden room extension makes for perfect relaxed evenings whatever the weather though our weather this year was very kind indeed! The very best thing about the cottage is the setting. It is tranquil & quiet while only being a 5 minute drive from Middletoninteesdale with all the necessary supplies. A footpath runs behind the cottage straight to Gibson's Cave, Summergill Force, Low Force and High Force. The views from everywhere in the cottage are beautiful & filled with rabbits, pheasants & a slew of different birds. This year the cows weren't in the field beside the hot tub we quite missed them watching us!! A perfect family base for everyone.

Really lovely place to stay for a group of families and friends. Spacious, well maintained and in a beautiful location.

We were met by Peter who showed us around and explained everything to us. Nothing was too much trouble. The location was fantastic and the accomodation exceptional. We were 6 adults with 3 young children, a baby and a dog. There was ample space and comfort for everyone. In summary we enjoyed a fantastic weekend.

We had such a great weekend with all the family to help us celebrate a special birthday. Everything was as described and even better. There was a delightful welcome pack and so much help to welcome us in. The cottage is much larger than I expected with plenty of room for everyone and as the weather wasn't the best we used the hot tub room as a cosy play area for the buys. The rooms were very spacious and the property was exceptionally clean. The kitchen was well equipped as we selfcatered both nights with infants as part of the party. We would definitely return to spend more time exploring the area.

Super cottage, perfectly placed in an idyllic setting. Hoodgill Barn was well equipped, spotless and a great base to relax and enjoy the views. Great walks nearby with the added bonus of an indoor Hot Tub to soothe those aching legs after those long walks. Peter, the owner, was a great host, friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend Hoodgill and we will be back as soon as possible.

I had a wonderful time at Hoodgill Barn and couldn't fault a thing. The location is beautiful and perfect for walking and exploring the area. The house is lovely and had everything we needed for our stay. The owner was really helpful and welcoming and we would love to come back again in the future.

Amazing location, great facilities and the owner was very helpful

Lovely cottage in a fabulous location, great views and so lovely to see the stars at night. Very quiet location with lovely walks on your doorstep. The barn was beautiful, home from home with a lovely welcome pack on arrival. It housed everything you need, very clean.

Fantastic holiday cottage. Lovely owner who is very helpful. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family. Thank you

Great location for low force walks lovely spacious cottage very well equipped comfortable with fantastic views only negative was toilet seat in on suite slightly wobbly and I am sure Peter will get this sorted. Hot tub sheer luxury everything else totally positive

Fantastic. Felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, yet plenty to do around the property. So peaceful, beautiful views, and the hot tub room was perfect. The cottage was clean, lovely inside and out and everything provided. The owner, Peter, was so helpful and friendly, thank you.

We had the most amazing and relaxing time here. I couldnt fault anything.

We had a fantastic weekend catching up with friends 5 from Glasgow and 1 from Oxford. The cottage is very comfortable lots of space added bonus was the hot tub. Beautiful location, very peaceful.

Lovely cottage, spotlessly clean, in a peaceful setting, with views across valley from all frontofhouse rooms. Peter met us when we arrived to hand keys over and gave lots of helpful advice on the cottage and the area. There was a generous welcome hamper. Thanks! Great local walks, and loads of day trips within 1 hours travel. Hot tub is a great feature for kids, or for adults if they can get in before the kids! Coop in Middleton stays open until 10pm. Areas for improvement? We struggled a bit with the cooker just a single oven and seemed to take for ever to heat up. But we were a large group of 6 adults, 3 kids, plus a baby. Also it rained every day and we felt there was a shortage of drying facilities perhaps we should have been less reluctant to put the heating on!. But overall, a great holiday.

We had a fabulous two weeks at Hoodgill Barn exploring the sites, now missing our daily walk to the waterfalls. Hot tub well used after our long walks. Three generations making great memories together, just what we needed

We had a fantastic week at Hoodgill Barn, the setting was perfect set back off the road it was so peaceful. Looking out from the front garden you don't see anything but the countryside. The accommodation was very comfortable and was well equipped and the hot tub was great. Peter was very helpful and accommodate, would recommend to anyone. Thanks

We just spent 3 nights here as a group of 6 friends for my husbands 60th birthday celebrations. The host Peter met us at the property with lots of useful information and a lovely welcome hamper. The cottage is in a really peaceful setting. Some beautiful walks in the area, including the stunning high force waterfall. The cottage is very spacious, warm and well equipped. Wonderful addition of the hot tub in the extension. Nicely decorated, super comfy beds. Would definitely recommend to others.

Me and 8 friends had a 2 night stay here just this last weekend for my 50th yearof celebrations! ! We had a blast, Peter met us at the property and had left 2 bottles of bubbly to help with the celebration

Hoodgill Barn suited our requirements very well, I was only sorry we could not stay longer and explore the area more thoroughly. Hot tub was great, beds very comfortable. Short of a bedside lamp in one room but otherwise we had everything we needed.

Fantastic, comfortable cottage, well equipped kitchen. Including a very nice welcome hamper. The location was ideal for walking and the views out across the valley and fells were lovely, especially at sunset. Well recommend, thanks again to our host.

Fabulous cottage in a beautiful setting so the perfect spot for us. Peter was very helpful with tips for walks and fishing. So many walks out the back garden to stunning woods and the river. Very comfortable and warm and all the utensils and equipment we needed. Deers at Raby estate were a highlight Thanks

Beautiful cottage in beautiful countryside. Peter met us at the cottage and provided help and advice on walks and things to see. We had a lovely few days with our family and wished we could have stayed much longer!

Gorgeous location, a very welcoming cottage, with everything included and very homely, host was very helpful too! Will definately return when next in the area, highly recommend for everyone!

We loved the place. Was nice and big for all of us to stay in. Lots of stairs but we got our steps in. Used the tub a few times was nice to sit there. It rained most the time but that didnt bother us. We sat in the tub listening to the rain. It was great that both waterfalls Low force and High force very close near by. Lots of walks to be had. Its also nice and dark so you can see the stars when we did have the odd clear night. I would go back again. Loved the area. And the owner was great. He showed me round and was a funny guy. Still wondering about them dam 3 seashells.

Hoodgill Barn is one of the best holiday cottages Ive stayed in. It was clean, had a well equipped kitchen, super comfy beds and plenty of space for the five of us. And the hot tub in the sun room with the comfy sofas and fabulous view was a great way to while away our time. The host Peter gave us some great tips on where to eat and walk to locally, both of which are in abundance.

Peter was great, the accommodation was great, just the break our family needed.

A lovely cottage in a wonderful location, would definitely book again. A gorgeous hamper awaited our arrival the owner was in touch and really helpful. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing place! Immaculately presented and no issues to be found! 100 recommend this location to any group who enjoys getting out on walks and exploring the local countryside or nearby towns.

A fabulous place to stay. House was fantastic and had everything we needed. The hot tub was a great way to relax. The house is in such a lovely location, fabulous views and nice and quiet. Great walks from the door which our dog loved. Highly recommend this property and we will definitely return. Stacey met us at the house and was lovely. She was really helpful and gave us lots of information on good places to visit, eating out etc.

Beautiful cottage, beautifully kempt and location is fab. Owner Peter very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely holiday. Thankyou.

Hoodgill Barn was perfect for our little holiday. Very comfortable, spacious, had everything we needed and more. Peter, the owner, was super helpful and easily contactable before and during our stay. We will definitely go again this was a perfect base to explore the beautiful area and relax in. The hot tub was an added bonus and the accommodation to a high standard.

Wonderful property which we used for an intergenerational get together. Superb support from the owner both friendly and practical. Lovely views and walks straight from the property. Highly recommend.

Excellent place to stay, loved every minute even though there was a power cut and we had no electric all weekend! !!

Lovely cottage, well presented with everything you need , very pleasant chap, Peter. Would highly recommend.
