Had our family reunion at this idyllic Vesta View and Shepherd's Retreat near Humshaugh. Location perfect surrounded by chickens, sheep, lambs and cows ... The house was ideal and catered for my brother in a wheelchair. Beds so comfortable and the welcome hampers were so very welcome as we'd forgot the milk! Did the sycamore gap trail - a bit late to see the tree. Went to Beamish museum, vindalanda , The Sill and the star gazing at Twice Brewed - meal in the pub, then a presentation on the universe , unfortunately didn't get to see the stars as it rained - but still worth it.
This is our fourth time staying at Vesta View which shows how good it is, it is an amazing place and Leah & Kevin have thought of everything to make sure you settle in quickly and feel at home. The views are incredible and you can't beat the cosy fire looking out over those views. The family loves the place too, its so peaceful and quiet but they never fail to have a great time all together, with plenty of space and their own en suite rooms. Amazing place and we will be back no doubt!!
This is a beautiful place to stay. Kevin & Leah are amazing hosts and can’t do enough for you. Lots of special little touches - a fantastic cake & very much appreciated welcome pack greeted us when we checked in. Everything you could possible need is all available and at the highest standard. The views are amazing and make you totally relax. We strongly recommend Carraw and can’t wait to go back and stay.
