About this property
This spacious two-storey apartment is set in picturesque Allendale in the North Pennines. Sleeping up to five guests, it’s the perfect base for families and groups of friends seeking outdoor adventures and a choice of local events. Allendale offers a charming base for your holiday, with its shops, pubs and eateries all within a few steps of the property. Discover the town’s art gallery and quirky sci-fi museum, while a host of annual events offer an insight into the community. Events include the Allen Valleys Folk Festival in September and the Allendale Tar Bar'l on New Year’s Eve, which involves blazing whisky barrels filled with tar. The area is renowned for its scenery, with wildlife-rich walking and cycling trails leading through woodlands and moorlands and along the East Allen River. You can also visit historic Hexham (10.5 miles) for its Grade I-listed abbey and range of shops, pubs and restaurants.
Follow the stairs to this first-floor apartment and step inside to find light and airy accommodation spread across two floors. Here, high ceilings and exposed wooden beams add character and contrast with a wealth of modern comforts, offering an inviting base in which to unwind. The open-plan lounge/diner is the social heart of the property, offering a chic space designed for relaxation. Sink into the soft seating, switch on the Smart TV and bask in the glow of the wood burner set into a stone hearth. You can also perch on the window seat, which overlooks the market square and offers a great vantage point for the New Year Tar Bar'l celebrations. The light-filled kitchen provides an elegant space for cooking up holiday meals and prepping picnics for the day ahead. Enjoy each meal at the wooden dining table, which sits beside another window with views of the market square. At the end of each day, head upstairs to find three charming bedrooms, all of which sit under the sloping eaves of the building. Choose from two king-size bedrooms, one located on the lounge level, and one on the top floor along with a single room with a small double bed, all of which make use of the family shower room featuring underfloor heating, a walk-in shower and a WC. A separate WC completes the accommodation.
While there is no outdoor space at the property, your central location in Allendale places you within metres of the town’s picnic tables and green. Parking is on-street and subject to availability, with unrestricted options on the village square and in the surrounding streets.
