Jamie
We really enjoyed our stay at Oaklea Cottage. The peaceful surroundings, lovely views from the gardenand easy access from the A1 made it a perfect spot to explore Sedgefield and beyond!
Emma Parker
We had a lovely second stay here! The hot tub was already heated when we arrived, which was perfect after a long drive. The welcome pack was a thoughtful touch. The beds are super comfyand there's plenty of space for our family. We know the area well, with lots to do nearby. The location is great for exploring the north eastand we definitely recommend visiting Beamish - it's a must! We'll be back.
Emma
The cottage was charmingand the owner was really friendly, meeting us on arrival and giving a quick tour, including hot tub instructions. I accidentally left some tops behind, but they kindly posted them back. Highly recommend!
