Well equipted accommodation in a quiet beautiful location. The Alpacas in the field gave much joy to the grandkids and granny! With so much to do in nearby towns, including the awesome 'Living Museum in Beamish' a week worked well. Highly recommend. Emrys Skye

The Turnip Barn was a stunning house, well equipped and very suitable for our family. The bedrooms and beds were very comfortable and the linen, towels etc were of a high quality. Very comfortable lounge and well equipped kitchen area. It is in an ideal location to travel to lots of the North East attractions without travelling too far.
