A comfortable well equipped cottage with lovely outdoor space. Disappointing to find that the bathroom no longer has the shower over bath described in the cottage advert, just a free standing bath. This means the shower cubicle in the separate toilet has to accommodate all guests wanting to shower. Excellent to have the Cross Keys Inn a short walk away, serving great food. And Hamsterley Forest is a great place nearby for the family and four legged friends ##### Anne Dougan ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Dominican Republic](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Dominican-Republic-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d50-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Wyndham Garden Edmonton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Wyndham-Garden-Edmonton-Airport.h16820041.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d178315-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Prince Edward](https://www.expedia.ca/Prince-Edward-Hotels.d553248635924757362.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinnacle Hotel Whistler Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Whistler-Hotels-Pinnacle-Hotel-Whistler-Village.h68320.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Honolulu](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels.d1488.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [W Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-W-Toronto.h11653.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [S Hotel Montego Bay - Luxury Boutique All Inclusive Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Montego-Bay-Hotels-S-Hotel-Jamaica.h31370664.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottages Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Cottages.d11178-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Mont-Tremblant](https://www.expedia.ca/Mont-Tremblant-Hotels.d55374.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Ajnala (ATQ) to Nanded (NDC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/atq/ndc/sri-guru-ram-das-ji-intl-airport-to-nanded) > > [Flights from Regina (YQR) to Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/msp/regina-to-minneapolis) > > [Flights from Lisbon District (LIS) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lis/ath/lisbon-to-athens) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ath/edmonton-to-athens) ### Packages > [Hawaii](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/213/Hawaii)
