A guest house with real character run by a very friendly and attentive couple. Alston is off the beaten track for most people and as a result is quiet and peaceful even over a bank holiday weekend. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery. Lowbyer Manor Country House is a great base for enjoying the wild beauty of the Northern Pennines
