"We stayed here as a group of 9 and it was a fantastic holiday home."
Location was handy to explore the area. Accommodation was beautiful, pictures dont do it justice. The living area was a great space to fit us all to allow time to be together. Lovely area to sit out and bright spacious bedrooms.

"Photos don't do this property justice!"
Our group consisted of 9 adults, 1 toddler and 1 dog and unlike some properties there was enough room in the lounge area, garden/seating areas and a spacious kitchen to support. Should be listed as 4 bathrooms not 5 but that was more than sufficient too. Would have happily stayed another week there!!

The property
Spring Meadow is a characterful barn conversion retreat set on a working farm in the heart of Croxdale, County Durham, offering a peaceful rural escape for families and friends.
Surrounded by open countryside yet well placed for exploring the region, this thoughtfully converted property blends traditional features with modern conveniences.
There is generous off-road parking for up to four cars, an EV charging point, and space for up to two well-behaved dogs, making it a practical and welcoming choice for group stays with a true farm-stay feel.
At the centre of the home is a spacious, sociable living area where original beams reflect the building’s agricultural heritage.
The well-equipped kitchen is designed to cater for everything from simple breakfasts to shared evening meals, while the dining area provides a natural gathering point for conversation and long, leisurely dinners.
The sitting area is arranged with two sofas and a Smart TV, creating an inviting place to spend time together after days out exploring the countryside and nearby towns.
The accommodation continues upstairs with five beautifully appointed bedrooms, providing generous space for larger groups.
Two elegant double bedrooms each boast their own private en-suite, complete with a walk-in shower, basin and WC for added comfort and privacy.
The remaining three twin rooms are equally well presented, offering flexibility for families or friends.
These are served by a stylish family shower room featuring a walk-in shower, basin and WC, ensuring convenience for all guests.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden is ideal for both quiet moments and shared activities.
The patio lends itself perfectly to morning coffee or evening meals, while the lawn gives children room to play freely.
Outdoor furniture encourages dining in the fresh air, and the private hot tub provides a welcome indulgence at the end of the day, whether enjoyed beneath the open sky or as the farm settles into evening calm.
Spring Meadow is well positioned for discovering some of the North East’s most rewarding attractions.
Durham Cathedral and Durham Castle offer striking architecture and a deep sense of history, while Adventure Valley provides a fun-filled day with farm animals, rides and outdoor activities.
Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens showcases botanical displays, local heritage and international artworks, and the coastal town of Sunderland invites visits to Roker Park, Roker Pier and sweeping sea views across the Northern Sea.
