Description

St John's Chapel 1.7 miles.

Surrounded by landscapes of heather moorland and rolling dales within the quaint village of Westgate is this charming terrace dwelling, 2 West Haswicks.

This rural hideaway has been designed with a couple or a small family in mind and is perfect for those seeking a refreshing escape from everyday life or for exploring the North Pennines AONB, an area renowned for its bird-watching, cycling and walking.

Be welcomed into the sitting room, where a plush L-shape sofa awaits you after an action-packed day and the woodburning stove offers extra comfort during those winter months.

Beyond here is the contemporary-styled kitchen, where the quality appliances invite you to rustle up a delicious evening meal or prepare a picnic to take on your trips to explore the countryside setting.

During a summer’s evening, look forward to enjoying a spot of alfresco dining within the rear garden, where the surrounding views and countryside soundtrack can be admired as you tuck into your meal.

As the sun sets, retire to one of the well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a double bedroom and a single bedroom.

Each bedroom is benefited by its own TV, ample storage and an idyllic ambiance to wake up to each morning.

If you can tear yourself away from this wonderful spot, a stone’s throw away is the village pub with a delicious dining menu and friendly atmosphere to complement.

For a larger selection of eateries and a shop, a short car journey will find you in St John's Chapel or the bustling town of Bishop Auckland.

Here, you will be spoilt for choice by the pubs and eateries that await you for refuelling, with something to cater to all tastes.

Whilst here, brush up on the local history by discovering Durham’s castles, including Finchale Priory and the ruins of the 12 century Bowes Castle, or spend some time at the open air museum of The Bowes Museum in the Durham Dales which plays host to the significant fine arts.

For those feeling active, look forward to exploring miles of walking and cycle routes upon Durham’s great outdoors or for thrill-seekers try a parachute jump to enjoy the AONB from a different angle.

2 West Haswicks is a superb base for an action-packed holiday with your loved ones.

A bijou bolthole in the country.

Suitable for small couples. High standard of upkeep from a decor perspective and appeared very clean. Unfortunayely there was a musty smell in the bathroom and a old dog/rotting smell in the front room. Plug in airfreshers were available to cover this but we found that worse. A great fire with plenty of wood and this is how we ignored the odour in the evenings. We were out all day exploring some great sites in the region

What a lovely cottage in a beautiful position, surrounded by countryside and beautiful walks in the area.

Neighbours very friendly and helpful. After spending months touring the area, the cottage was a home from home, beautifully maintained,decorated and very comfortable. This cottage stood out against all the other places we have stayed recently as the best, there is nothing negative to say.
