A peaceful escape awaits at this wonderfully cosy countryside cabin, well placed for exploring County Durham and the North Pennines National Landscape – it’s the ultimate relaxing retreat for couples and families. There’s something for everyone to enjoy at this scenic spot, from relaxed walks along the Weardale Way, which passes through the farm, to fishing on the on-site stretch of the River Wear (licence required). Get back to nature by exploring the tracks, trails, waterfalls and spotting the resident wildlife at Slitt Wood, a former mining area, reached within 8 miles of the doorstep. Those who prefer life on two wheels can ride the blood-pumping mountain bike trails at Hamsterley Forest, 12.5 miles away. Head to the bustling town of Barnard Castle, 18 miles away, to browse its fabulous independent shops, bars and restaurants showcasing this area’s best local produce before exploring its iconic medieval fortress.
After a busy day’s adventure, this beautifully cosy cabin provides a peaceful sanctuary to call home. Step through the glazed front door to be welcomed into the homely, studio-style open-plan layout. This light and airy space embraces nature at every turn, affording plenty of natural light, natural wood hues and stunning views across your peaceful surroundings. Plan your next adventure inspired by the view seated at the quaint farmhouse-style dining table before rustling up something sparkling or some local treats in the charming kitchenette. The curved ceiling creates a cocooning ambience that sets the scene for relaxation, whether you retire to the plush built-in sofa or sumptuous double bed. Offering versatility, the sofa can be converted into a bed to cater for an additional two guests. Encompassing the back of the cabin, the contemporary shower room is bursting with style and sophistication.
Make the most of your peaceful setting by enjoying your morning coffee or a sundowner on the picturesque terrace adjoining the cabin. Below the terrace, the pretty, gravelled area boasts everything you need for a spot of al fresco dining or stargazing, featuring a BBQ, fire pit and picnic bench. There is off-street allocated parking 50 metres from the cabin.
