On the edge of a pretty village of Gilling West, there's a great dining pub just a short walk away from the property. If you are a foodie, head to one of the local farm shops with delis and tearooms and where you will see farm animals grazing in the paddocks. The historic market town of Richmond is just 5 miles away with much to offer. Explore the cobbled market square or stroll up towards Richmond Castle for a slice of Yorkshire history. Head north to Barnard Castle, its streets lined with independent shops, cafes and art galleries. Bowes Museum is also well worth a visit.

Approached down a private drive, this detached stone-built barn is perched individually on the hillside offering panoramic views of the rolling countryside beyond. It features exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and all the thoughtful little luxuries to enhance your stay. Walk into the open-plan kitchen/dining area enjoying the views on either side; this is an excellent social space for your group to enjoy time together. The spacious kitchen has all you need to prepare a delicious meal, including an electric oven and hob, combination microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Dine around the table with your loved ones and enjoy your home-cooked feast. After dinner, head through to the lounge and sit back on one of the comfy sofas warmed by the wood burner, before turning on the Smart TV for a relaxing movie night. Completing this floor is a cloakroom. When it's time to turn in, head downstairs to three stylish bedrooms, all of which are king-size; one has a private en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath and a WC. There is also a large dressing room so you can pack away your things. Lastly, on this floor, you will find the delightful bathroom with a shower over the bath and a WC.

The house sits elevated on the hillside with two generous gardens offering plenty of room for children to run and tire themselves out! The hot tub nestles down some steps and offers a wonderful place for you to embrace the magical views.

Lovely house with large windows, a beautiful outlook and wildlife to spare. The upside down layout takes full advantage of the location. All this, yet only a few minutes from a large,well-stocked farm shop and a few miles from Richmond, Darlington and Barnard Castle with attractions, local culture, country and more commercial shopping.

An attractive, comfortable house in a particularly lovely location, with a very large private garden and uninterrupted views across the countryside. Fully equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable relaxing stay, including a great hot tub, also with views. Thanks to the local OS map provided by the owner we were easily able to find many diRead morefferent types of walks directly from the house, especially as most are clearly marked with signposts, which is a real bonus. Several excellent local pubs (less than 15 minutes' drive) serving food are definitely worth a visit, as is a very local huge farm shop complex. Owners/managers were helpful and flexible. Would love to return. Hide

We had an amazing stay at Broom Barn and would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway in the countryside. We loved the hot tub and the fire in the lounge. The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated the milk and biscuits! The house and garden were extremely private with no other houses overlooking and the hosts do not live on site meaning weRead more had the entire place and surroundings to ourselves. Hide

Stunning location, building, comfy beds & settees, lovely & warm but general lack of attention to detail all round unfortunately gives the impression of tired couldnt carelessness Owners should spend a weekend in their property & cast a critical eye in all directions in order to make this slightly tired property sing again

A stunning property in a lovely setting, very peaceful area. A delightful barn to come back and chill in the hot tub after a days sight seeing. Near to Richmond and a little further south the Catterick garrison both good for shopping and fuel as both are just a short hop off the A1 when on the way back after a day out. Gilling West has a nice frienRead moredly local village pub about a mile away with a beer garden out back. Home from home. Hide

The cottage is very spacious, generally well equipped, in a lovely location and is ideally situated for Richmond and other local attractions. It has a huge front and back garden which can be sued for playing games, having a picnic or just relaxing. It also has a large hot tub which was the icing on the cake!

Perfect location with Enormous grounds. Our kids could play out for as long as they wanted. Views from every room. Comfortable beds and living areas. Great tv. Tastefully decorated throughout. We visited Richmond, west gilling and some farm shops. We would happily spend longer than 3 nights next time.
