Firstly, Belford itself is a delight and a perfect base for exploring all of the interesting surrounding areas. The property was so easy to live in, all you could want, an incredibly comfortable bed, and everything in perfect working order. Jacqui (owner) was really welcoming and helpful: all in all, a deserved 5 star review.

Just returned from a week staying at the Counting House and I can not praise it enough. Arrived at the accommodation and Jacque the host had left a basket with lots of goodies in it , tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits, jam, honey and milk in the fridge. Also a lovely touch was fresh flowers on the dining table. Property was spotless and very spacious. It felt like being at home, kitchen had everything you could need. Communication was excellent Lovely pub opposite the house which did excellent meals and staff and customers where very friendly and welcoming.
