Really enjoyed our stay

We enjoyed the house very much. The bed was warm and cosy, the fireplace in the lounge for the evening was welcome. The sun streaming in the kitchen in the morning was nice. Lots of personality in this house. We enjoyed the homemade jam too. Cheviot is well worth stopping and staying for longer. We cycled and hiked and will visit again.
