The reservoir is 3½ miles in length with a thousand acres of clean, open water, which is devoted to fishing, wind surfing and sailing, with five generous slipways for easy launch. Golfing enthusiasts will delight in the ample choice of prestigious courses close by, one being the superior De Vere Slaley Hall. Ramblers and cyclists will enjoy exploring the heather moorlands with rugged uplands which include some of the highest, wildest and most beautiful scenery in the country.

The Beamish Open Air Museum is just half an hour’s drive away where you can take a tram ride back in time.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hunter House. It was a great location for exploring the surrounding area and a pleasure to return to in the evenings for peace and quiet. We spent every day out and about, exploring, but would have happily spent a day indoors relaxing with the calming reservoir as our backdrop. The house was well equipped and clean.
