The School House
This is just the most lovely property, beautifully renovated and in a stunning location. Ideally placed for either the coast or the moors . A brilliant choice for families or if you just want to get away !!

A lovely welcome from Estate staff member on arrival checking we had everything we needed. Delighted with all aspects of Emily cottage. Wonderful weekend away bolthole, peaceful and very comfortable. Enjoyed bacon rolls and coffee at the village tea room on Sunday morning. Spectacular scenery.

We stayed here over Christmas, and I say this without hyperbole - we had the best Christmas ever. Check-in was effortless, the accommodation flawlessly clean and full of character, with not a single thing I would change. It's hard to explain how relaxing a time we had, and I feel the biggest compliment I can pay is that we WILL be back. Thank you!

Beautiful accommodation in a peaceful and beautiful setting. We had a fantastic stay. Every thought has been given to the furnishing of the cottage and the bath is stunning! The hosts offer a warm welcome and are most helpful.

We had a lovely few days here, a good base for a wedding at Matfen Hall. The beds are very comfortable and the cottage spacious and well equipped. The enclosed garden was great for our small children to run and crawl around in. The location is very rural, quiet and peaceful.

Fabulous, so much to see in the surrounding areas. So clean.

What a place!! This was so much better than I had anticipated! The cottage is lovely and definitely ticked all the boxes for me. It was very peaceful despite being in a row of three cottages and is much larger than the pictures would suggest. The instructions and communication from the hosts were excellent and very clear. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend it!

SM-W - September 2021

The School House
A great week - the cottage is very peaceful, set in a lovely rural situation. There is a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, good bathroom with shower and bath (and plenty of hot water), and a spacious dining room. The sitting room with log burner is cosy for cooler evening and it is good to have off road parking in a designated space.

The West Wing
Capheaton Hall is stunning. The West Wing is grand but homely and the garden and grounds are spectacular. Fresh garden produce from the magnificent walled garden was a real treat. Willy and Eliza were delightful hosts and their dogs are gorgeous!

The West Wing
We can't recommend this beautiful place highly enough. The house is lovely, the setting spectacular. The garden was stunning, in full bloom and highly scented. The views from the terrace (and some rooms indoors) are amazing, you would never get tired of drinking them in. The estate is lovely to wander around - they are rightly proud of the wonderful walled garden, but there are also woods, a folly, a lake and a tennis court. William and Eliza were very attentive and friendly hosts, but relaxed and never intrusive, and Louise was also extremely helpful. The resident dogs also provided bonus entertainment for the children! We can't wait to come back.

A wonderful time in a beautiful setting! A great spot to explore the area and relax with glorious views. Looking forward to returning soon!

The Lakeside Cottages at Capheaton must be among the most wonderful and amazing places to stay in the UK. The cottages with their vaulted ceilings and very high quality furnishings and fittings were well beyond the normal holiday homes. If you are looking for tranquillity, beautiful sunsets, fabulous landscapes and excellent internet speeds then this is the place to visit. I just hope that there will still be availability for our next visit!

Like being in a Jane Austen novel. What an incredible place and our family will remember it forever. Thoroughly recommended.

Wedding
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the entire Capheaton team (Louise, Eliza, Willy, Jane, Fergus and everyone else) for being so welcoming and supportive throughout the entire wedding process up until the post-wedding day! We had the most magical day and wish we could do it all again. Louise is the most patient and kindest soul who was so patient and helpful with her advice. She always had a solution to things that seemed impossible, and we are just thankful that we had such support! What more do you want, a fantastic venue with the best team to work with. Thank you once again!

Mr and Mrs W - August 2019

Wedding
Capheaton was the perfect venue for our wedding reception. It was intimate, elegant and relaxed, which helped us and our guests have a really great time. Thank you very much to everyone at Capheaton, especially Louise and Eliza, for your help with everything, and we would highly recommend Capheaton to anyone looking for a unique venue for their wedding day.

Mr and Mrs C - May 2019

Wedding
There was a good amount of meetings before the wedding which meant we felt organised and on top of things. On the day Louise and Anna were always there to check things were getting done and we were where we were meant to be.

I would definitely recommend a wedding at Capheaton Hall. The setting is perfect and you receive so much help from the wedding coordinators that you feel totally calm and well organised. On the day they are fantastic at keeping you right and they go out of their way to help.

Jenny and James - June 2019

The School House is a beautiful house to stay in. Very Cosy with the log burners on and nice thick curtains. The kitchen was well equipped and clean. Lovely views out over the countryside from all rooms.

Helen - January 2020

The School House is an amazing property, beautiful location, beautiful house and immaculate and certainly exceeded our expectations. Very much in keeping with the photographs. Information from Tom was extremely helpful. We would certainly stay there again.

Christine - December 2019

We spent two nights in the lovely School House in October. Despite some horrible weather, the cottage was warm and cosy with ample comfortable bedding. The house is well equipped and finished to a good standard making it feel very homely for our short stay. What's more, the wonderful views out over the Lake, and its quiet, picturesque location made it the perfect base for a relaxed family weekend in Northumberland.

Dorothy - October 2019

What a great stay. Thought the communication was great up front, the property was exactly as advertised, everything was spotless and the house was extremely comfortable. Would recommend to others. And a bottle of wine and a cake on arrival - very thoughtful.
