Our self catering Holiday Cottages are set in beautiful rolling unspoilt countryside in Lower Teesdale on the Durham/Yorkshire border. Conveniently situated within easy reach of Northern England's most beautiful scenery and historic sites, including the North Pennines, Yorkshire Dales, Durham Cathedral, Barnard Castle, Richmond, Hadrians Wall, Newcastle and the Lakes. Locally there is an abundance of walking and cycling routes through peaceful lanes and quiet limewashed hamlets with everything from a Michelin-starred restaurant, to welcoming local pubs, restaurants, farm shops and cafes.
Mill Granary and Mill Byre are two luxuriously appointed stone built 18th century converted barns, sleeping eight and seven guests, these are separated by open fields and a wild flower meadow teeming with wildlife. They are great for family gatherings and celebrations.
Our village property is 16th century Church Cottage which can sleep four guests. It occupies an idyllic setting on the quiet green in the historic village of Gainford.
Cheeseborough House is our jewel in Barnard Castle, a 19th century grade two-listed town house within walking distance of Bowes Museum, shops and restaurants, sleeping four guests.
Also a stunning Shepherds Hut with a chic interior lovingly created for you to enjoy. A perfect retreat for two.
Dogs are welcome to stay in the Mill Byre and Mill Granary.
We had a fabulous time and the setting was lovely, very quiet and peaceful. Everything you could need is in the hut and Kate was a great help when booking!
We are back from another lovely stay at the Mill Byre. We managed to take advantage of the Byre being free and having the same week off work so it was a no brainer as we love our visits and enjoy the peace and quiet the Byre offers. This will have been our 21st stay and as always we have had the best time and feel very much at home here. The Mill Byre is spacious, stylish, very comfortable and well equipped and is within easy reach of places to visit. We enjoyed Salt-burn by the Sea, a walk around Derwent Reservoir and the dogs went swimming in the River Tees, always lots to do regardless...more
