  • "Cottage was very comfortable, warm and clean."

    Lovely furnishings in the cottage as well.Plenty of room for 5 of us and our grandson loved the wee sitting room complete with huge telly and good selection of dvd,s. Nice private courtyard with lights but sorry we could not take advantage of same due to the weather.Plenty to see and do in the surrounding area.

    Hi Anne, just catching up on our guest reviews. We are pleased our holiday home was to your liking and you used some of the dvd's, it would be nice if you could have enjoyed the outdoor space, maybe another visit in the warmer months is on the cards. The surrounding area could also be enjoyed, especially the Durham Dales. Simon and Melanie Property Owner

  • "This is a lovely house to stay in."

    It is really tastefully furnished, comfortable and homely. All of the furniture, including the beds, is very comfortable. The property was spotlessly clean throughout. The kitchen is well equipped and the courtyard garden is a peaceful secluded place in which to relax. Parking was easy, right outside the front door. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property. The dog welcome was a thoughtful added extra. I would definitely return and stay again.

    Hi Mick Many thanks for your lovely feedback about our property, we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay and the weather allowed you to enjoy the outdoor space. We would be more than happy to welcome you back again. Thanks again Simon & Melanie Property Owner

  • "We all really enjoyed our Christmas break at Deanery View, it was beautifully furnished ,and decorated with a large Xmas tree etc."

    It’s well equipped with everything you need for your stay ,the bedrooms are tastefully decorated and really comfortable. My only issue was the heating system it was lovely and cosy ,but when I turned it down before going to bed to 9.5 it still came on very early in the morning and the pipes were rattling which kept me awake as am a very light sleeper. Other than that I would recommend your cottage .

    Many thanks for your feedback and we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay at Deanery View and liked the festive decorations. Regarding the noise from the pipes, we have already bled the radiators and the annual service for the heating is due next month so hopefully, that will resolve the issue, we welcome this feedback so we can strive to improve the experience for our future guests. Many thanks Simon and Melanie Property Owner

  • "We were very impressed with this holiday cottage."

    It was so spacious, comfortable, clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The outside space is a lovely relaxing, tranquil retreat too and especially when the lights are all lit up on an evening. It looks so pretty, my daughter loved staying up til it got dark to see the lights on. We would love to revisit Deanery View, we are regular customers with Sykes and stayed in quite a few properties now but this has been our favourite.

The property

Positioned in the heart of the pretty Teesdale village of Staindrop, in rural County Durham, rests this remarkable three-bedroom Grade II listed holiday home, Deanery View.

Brimming with an effortless blend of both contemporary and traditional décor, Deanery View makes an excellent base for a family retreat to the country.

Marvel at the quaint, stone-built exterior of this lovely abode before stepping over the threshold to begin your staycation.

A handy bench seat greets you in the hallway, ideal for taking a seat when unlacing your muddy walking boots following a day of exploration.

Moving through the property, be charmed by the sitting room, thoughtfully laid-out with a sumptuous corner sofa and arm chair gathered in front of the warming fire, providing a lovely spot to unwind with a family favourite on the television at the end of an action-packed day.

When stomachs start to rumble, make your way through to the open-plan kitchen/diner, where delightful nautical blue cupboards house a range of conveniences to assist with your self-catering needs; a handy dishwasher helps keep your space neat and tidy.

Uncork a bottle of wine and serve up the fruits of your labour at the nearby dining table, or make meal times an alfresco affair by venturing outside for a sociable seat in your private garden.

The snug provides the perfect space for little ones to catch up on their favourite shows as the adults soak in the last of the evening sun on the patio.

When the day draws to a close, climb the stairs to the first floor to catch your rest in one of three bedrooms, with the king-size master benefiting from access to it's own en-suite to help beat the morning queues!

Completing the property is a convenient ground-floor cloakroom along with a stylish family bathroom, fit with both a bath and an overhead shower, giving guests the choice to indulge in a blissful soak in the bubbles or wake-up with an invigorating rinse.

Take advantage of your central location and tuck-in to a delicious meal out at one of the many eateries that rest on your doorstep; fuel the days excursions with a hearty breakfast at The Country Tea Shop & Restaurant or enjoy a well-deserved pint at The Wheatsheaf Inn at the end of a tiring day of exploration.

Those that prefer to dine from the comfort of their holiday home can stock-up at the handy convenience store.

Be sure to visit the medieval Raby Castle that sits just outside the village, steeped in rich heritage dating back to the 14th century and enveloped by a tranquil deer park, Raby Castle makes an idyllic location for a day out.

Take the short drive to the bustling market town of Barnard Castle and explore all the town has to offer, boasting a wealth of shops and tea rooms, along with The Bowes Museum and the stunning architecture of Barnard Castle.

The market town of Darlington also sits within easy reach, where visitors can tour the fascinating exhibitions on display at the Head of Steam Railway Museum, wander through the peaceful wetlands of the Drinkfield Marsh Nature Reserve, or catch a live performance of opera, theatre or music at the Darlington Hippodrome.

Nestled between the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the North York Moors National Park, you're in an outdoor adventures paradise, with miles of open moorland, ancient woodland and craggy peaks waiting to be explored.

Treat your loved ones to a long-overdue escape from reality with a retreat to Deanery View.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

About the location

STAINDROP

  • Barnard Castle 5 miles

The pretty Teesdale village of Staindrop has always been closely associated with the fortunes of nearby Raby Castle and its owners. The Castle (open to the public) is one of the most grand in England. Enlarged and beautified over the centuries, the medieval heart remains and a walled garden and 200 acre deer park add to the splendour. Staindrop has many interesting shops, pubs and cafes set round its long village green. The popular market town of Barnard Castle is 5 miles away, with its castle, the Bowes Museum, plus of course its wide range of shops and tea rooms. Walkers will enjoy the many walks around Teesdale.
