Retaining character and charm, they lie in a peaceful setting overlooking countryside with many cycle tracks nearby. Ideal walking and fishing country, yet close to famous attractions - visitors can step back in time at the Beamish Open Air Museum or visit the Metro Centre (a shopper’s paradise), Hexham (with its glorious abbey), Durham City (a city of contrasts, with its fine cathedral and designer shops), or the Northumberland coast, which are all within an hour’s drive. The medieval castle of Raby has a 200-acre deer park and is a firm favourite with visitors. An ideal location to explore all the surrounding AONB. Shop 500 yards.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2020
The cottage exceeded all our expectations. It was spacious, warm and comfortable. All the rooms were quite large and whilst there were only two of us it could easily accommodate two couples or a family of four. The kitchen was well-equipped (but the oven was difficult to programme). The bedrooms had much storage space with large wardrobes and chests of drawers, which you don't always get in these cottages.
Bathroom was very modern and now has an electric shower which was a nice surprise because the website said that it didn't have one.
The owner, Mrs Bainbridge, was very pleasant, welcoming and helpful.
We are members of the NT and English Heritage and there are many of their properties and sites within easy distance. Gibside is only 15 minutes away and there are some really good walks through the estate.
All in all this cottage was a real find and we can't recommend it enough.

Outstanding! We had a lovely weekend here and would definitely book again, the only bad point was the weather which can’t be helped (still it gave us chance to have some quality family time indoors!).
The owners have thought of everything and were extremely helpful.
