Description

18 Thorngate Wynd is a delightful, dog-friendly holiday cottage in the heart of Barnard Castle, County Durham, offering breathtaking views across the River Tees.

Boasting three beautifully appointed bedrooms, an open-plan living space with a wood-burning stove, and an enclosed garden with fantastic views, 18 Thorngate Wynd is the perfect setting for families or friends looking to explore all that County Durham has to offer!

Begin your getaway by parking up outside and then crossing the threshold into your new home-from-home, where an open-plan living space greets you.

Step into the sitting room, where you can unwind in front of the crackling wood-burning stove, before cooking up a storm in the fully equipped kitchen.

Enjoy this with your loved ones around the dining table.

If the weather is nice, take advantage of the beautiful patio, which boasts incredible views across the river.

Dine alfresco and raise a toast to your getaway, with the trickling river as the soundtrack to your evening.

When the sun sets, venture back inside and to the first floor, where you can freshen up in the family bathroom before choosing between two double bedrooms or a single room to catch up on sleep.

In the morning, take a short walk into the centre of town to stock up on essentials and discover a host of pubs and restaurants, like The Artisan Corner & Bistro and The Threehorse Shoes.

18 Thorngate Wynd is also perfectly placed to enjoy walks along the River Tees and throughout the countryside.

Head to High Force Waterfall, a true sight to behold, or venture south into the heart of the Yorkshire Dales to uncover Aysgarth Falls.

Here, you can also enjoy a day of family fun at The Forbidden Corner!

History lovers can admire the ruins of Barnard Castle, tour The Bowes Museum, and visit the beautiful ruins of Egglestone Abbey.

The 14th-century Raby Castle is also within reach, as is Bowes Castle.

You could also venture further afield into the thriving city of Durham to discover the breathtaking Durham Cathedral and Durham Castle, which boasts views over the River Wear.

If you'd rather explore the coast, there are a variety of beautiful beaches to choose from.

Spend the day on the golden shores of Seaton Beach in Hartlepool, Redcar Beach, or Marske-by-the-Sea Beach; all wonderful places to let your dog run free.

You could also spend the day on the rocky shores of Seaham Beach, hunting for the sea glass that this stretch of coast is best known for.

Make unforgettable memories at 18 Thorngate Wynd!

Please be aware of the drop to the river bank from the wall at the back of the house.

No.

18 was extremely clean and well stocked with kitchen appliances and comfortable furniture. The view over the River Tees from the kitchen and dining area was beautiful regardless of the weather. There’s no private parking but we had no problem parking in the Wynd near no.18. The steepness of the Bank up to Barney centre might be issue for some - but the centre is well worth the effort - very vibrant varied shops and eating places, good pavements, friendly people, 2 hour free parking areas. Barnard Castle is also a great centre for those who want to tour the beautiful North East coast & Northumberland - or to head West to visit the spectacular Lake District. Having left Barney in the 1970’s I’m really pleased to see it’s improved to be nicer now than it was even then - there’s no urban decay in Barnard Castle.
