About this property

Staindrop 2.5 miles.

An attractive stone-built, semi-detached cottage, rurally situated on the owners' livestock farm, 2.5 miles from the pretty village of Staindrop near Barnard Castle. Boasting lovely views of the surrounding countryside, this Staindrop cottage is a wonderful base for family and friends to get together and explore this beautiful area. Renovated to retain much of its original character, this traditional Staindrop cottage offers a spacious sitting room with beams and luxurious underfloor heating, whilst the kitchen has been fully modernised and is well-equipped, with a dining area and a pleasant outlook over fields. With two bathrooms and an additional ground floor cloakroom, this Staindrop cottage provides comfortable living in an enviable quiet setting. There are fabulous walks from the doorstep of this Staindrop cottage, and a host of historical buildings to visit nearby including Raby Castle, Bowes Museum, the ruins of Barnard Castle and Eggleston Hall. Enjoy a stroll along the nearby River Tees or for the more energetic, follow the Teesdale Way up the valley. A few minutes' drive brings you to the popular market town of Barnard Castle with quaint tea-rooms and antique shops lining the cobbled streets. High Force, Low Force and Cauldron Snout lie further up the river valley and are well worth visiting, as is the charming village of Middleton-in-Teesdale. A fabulous Staindrop cottage in a superb location.

Closely associated with the fortunes of nearby Raby Castle and its owners is the pretty Teesdale village of Staindrop in the Yorkshire Dales. The castle, a monument that is open to the public, is one of the grandest in England. Extended and modified over the centuries, the heart of the castle is medieval with a walled garden and 200-acre deer park. Staindrop itself is home to many interesting shops, pubs and cafes, all set round its long village green. The popular market town of Barnard Castle is only five miles away, and is the setting for the Bowes Museum, in addition to its wide range of shops and tea-rooms. The area is a wonderful place for walkers and cyclists with numerous routes throughout the stunning scenery.

    The location was perfect for us and the dogs. Only a short 10 minute drive in the car to Bernard Castle which is lovely. Hosts are very friendly and helpful. The cottage itself is beautiful, very country cosy and has everything you need. The local villages are filled with little shops, restaurants and coffee shops and there are loads of lovely walks nearby also. I would highly recommend and would definitely look to book another stay in the near future.
