A beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings. Tiore far exceeded our expectations. Christine and Peter have gone the extra mile to make Tiore welcoming and comfortable. We have felt very much at home. We have also been very impressed with how child friendly Tiore is. Ella has been catered for exceptionally well and she has had a great time. It has been good to be able to relax and not worry about Ella's safety in the cottage. Tiore really is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Cheryl, George and Ella Barber, Darlington, Co Durham
