About this house sitting position in Ponteland

Farmhouse building -rural setting 9 miles west from Newcastle city centre. Roman wall -3 miles. Alnwick castle 20 miles. Northumberland coast- 15 miles etc. Apart from this we are in the heart of the beautiful county of Northumberland with Keilder forest and Bamburgh castle being my favourites

We have 2 dogs then my daughter drops her dog off daily
They are a miniature jack russel, old working cocker and the visitor is a cockapoo

Plenty of room to exercise them on own property of 7 acres and the fields beyond.
Dogs very good and can be left for several hours in their room where they sleep overnight and are put when it’s wet and muddy but otherwise they are house dogs. Other demands are morning and night for 15mins feeding 13 hens and variety of birds
Also since it is the height of summer when we go we have plants and flowers to keep watered as we have several plant pots and baskets along with a medium size green house.
I do allow a friend to keep a couple of horses in my paddocks which are dog friendly but solely there responsibility Nearest shops bars restaurants 3/4miles
