I've been lucky enough to visit Coves House a number of times and it is one of my favourite places in the North East. Everyone at the house and centre are very friendly and welcoming and the views are breathtaking. I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to anyone!

This was an exceelent weekend. The views from the centre are amazing and the accomodation we were provided with was excellent.
