Cottages in the North Pennines
Here you’ll find our range of holiday cottages in the North Pennines, a beautiful national landscape that straddles the borders of Cumbria, Durham, Northumberland and North Yorkshire. The region is known for its large waterfalls, clear skies, impressive valleys and rural communities. The perfect destination for detox breaks and walking holidays, a cottage holiday in the North Pennines is a real treat. Our range of holiday cottages in the North Pennines, and the whole of Northumberland for that matter, includes dog-friendly accommodations, luxury holiday homes, and properties with hot tubs.
Nestled among breathtaking fells, the picturesque village of Blanchland is a truly local gem. Explore Blanchland Abbey, a stone-built marvel built in the 12th century that has retained its charm and beauty over hundreds of years. Set sail on the Derwent Reservoir and reel in trout, wander the water’s edge, and picnic in its 1,000 acres of stunning landscapes.
Another destination in the North Pennines is Alston. High up in the clouds of the North Pennines, this age-old market town is one of the highest settlements in England. This remote and lively town is immersed in the Pennines’ wild heathland, sitting along the upper banks of the River South Tyne. Famous for Alston Cheese and Cumberland Mustard, it’s a bustling cobbled town that’s a must-visit for food lovers.
We also have a range of cottages in the small village of Hamsterley Mill in County Durham. The village is equidistant between Durham, Newcastle and the coast, and offers friendly local pubs, welcoming shops and a traditional chippy. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, Hamsterley Mill is a great spot for walking and is located on the famous Derwent Walk – a 12-mile route between Consett and Swalwell.
Lanchester is another place where we offer holiday homes, which is also located along the Derwent Walk. A 15-minute drive from Durham, Lanchester is a very quiet and calming location with great views of the Derwent Valley and North Pennines.
Finally, there’s Allendale. Famous for the River Allen that runs through, which contains silver and lead ore – ‘Allendale’ itself means ‘valley of shining water’. Home to lots of local festivals including the annual Tar Bar’l, where men born in the Allen Valleys take part in a flaming barrel roll on New Year’s Eve in a spectacular display that is said to have begun in the Middle Ages.
