Things You'll Love

We have an abundance of birds visit our garden, including the great spotted woodpecker and other birds in the area include the skylark, herons, buzzards, grouse, pheasant, blackcock and peregrine falcons, making it an ideal location for bird watchers. You may be lucky enough to see our neighbouring red squirrel family who come regularly to play in the garden. The area is also home to many rare wild flowers and grasses including wild orchids and gentiouns.

This beautiful mountain area is little known and still unspoilt, but the warm local hospitality, quite wooded valleys and old buildings make it well worth exploring.

Location

Greycroft is set on a corner site with open views south across the beautiful South Tyne valley towards Cross Fell (the highest point on the Pennines). It is in the peaceful hamlet of the Raise, a five minute walk into Alston and is tastefully furnished to a high standard with our guests in mind.
