햄스틸스 홀

Hamwheels self catering cottage where we took our own food and beds were very comfortable

exelent stay lovely room fantastic host will stop again

Wonderful place and concur with all the reviews except; the cleanliness of our room, the hen house. Webs and cobwebs all over the place, many occupied. I had to get the hoover in the bathroom to get rid of 5 big spiders, and their webs. The cobwebs all over the place have been there a long time. This wonderful place is seriously let down by unacceptably poor housekeeping. The windows, sills etc have accumulated so much filth; this is neglect. If you are afraid of spiders then don't come here as this will be your worst horror movie.

The property was not cleaned properly . Dirty microwave, cupboards. There was a strong odour in bathroom. A lot of the windows not cleaned with insects and dust. Lounge area ok

Property could have been great but sadly was a little tired and uncared for.

Have been here several times over the years cant fault the property

Nice first impressions, but cooker not great, basic equipment. Adequate.

I stayed in the henhouse. This was a very large dwelling place with a full kitchen in living room and a very large bedroom. It’s perfect for a family or a solo person just needing a couple of days where they can cook along their travels. It’s located in a beautiful area, the owners have sheep and a farm but it’s still very quiet. You can park right outside of the front door.

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful place with a warm welcome.

The location was excellent for us and the building was very nice and well laid out with plenty of room, a few things needed fixing light bulbs were out in the bedroom and the lamp in the living room, the bedroom was full of cobwebs round the ceiling, the towel rail kept coming off its bracket, these were all small quick fixes because the property is really nice

Owner friendly and approachable and seemed happy to sort out any issues. Bull Pen was clean, tidy and had the kitchen and bathroom facilities needed for a mini break. Would happily stay again.

Great location and very friendly and helpful hosts. Will be staying again

Very pleasant stay, everything we needed was provided and the cottage was very comfortable.

This was an excellent place. Very quite and incredibly clean. Communication was great and everything was straightforward. I stayed in the miners cottage and it was more than i could have asked for.

A perfectly clean and tidy house. Very friendly and helpful hosts with a welcome (very welcome) bottle of wine. Not our first stay may I add, which shows how happy we were of the accommodation. Well recommended.

Really good facilities for the price. Plenty of space and very comfortable. One of the radiators didn't work and the bathroom shower area could have been more thoroughly cleaned. The surroundings were very scenic, it was lovely and quiet with only a five minute drive to the nearest town (Langley Park). We would definitely stay here again and have already recommended it to others.

Wonderful quiet location near to Beamish and good access to the M1 motorway. A great week seeing the sights of Durhan and Newcastle. Local pub just up the road with good food. A great location for trips out.

Bull Pen Cottage was very comfortable, cosy and clean. You can park your car right outside and there is a patio area with lovely views of the countryside. There is a kettle, toaster, microwave, cooker and fridge/freezer in the kitchen area which is adequately stocked with crockery and cutlery. The lounge furniture is extremely comfortable and there is a small dining table. The bed is comfortable and warm and there is plenty of storage in the bedroom.

Hamsteels Hall is a collection of farm cottages, modern barn conversions, set in the rolling countryside of County Durham. It is 5 minutes by car from Lanchester with good pubs, restaurants and shops, and only 15 minutes drive to Durham or the Beamish Museum, or 30 minutes to Newcastle. It is in excellent walking country, an ideal base for a week or more. The rooms are cosy but not too small, well-equipped and clean. The hostess could not have been more helpful, fixing a couple of minor gripes or omissions. Rates are reasonable. We will return!

the owner was very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was a little dated and cold have done with a few more crockery items.The shower was a bit dangerous if you had children as it could get very hot.Overall it was acceptable for the price we paid. Wifi was ok but could only get a good reception in the bedroom.
