    "First impressions were very good."

    The property is part of a recent barn conversion sited in the grounds of the owners. The one bedroom property was very clean with good quality modern furnishings, fixtures and fittings. It was perfectly located for visiting many historical and iconic sites. Met the owners on several occasions; they were approachable & friendly, offering ideas of places to visit. Would recommend as a self catering base for those wishing to visit the North East.

    Jane, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Hope you have a lovely rest of 2025. Kind Regards Chris & Lynne Property Owner

    "If you can find a better presented cottage ,book it ."

    The quality of the finish is superb . There is a bus stop outside that takes you to Newcastle . If you want to explore Hadrians wall ,Corbridge and Chester’s Fort are 25 min. scenic drive in one direction and Beamish is 25 min in the other direction . I had a swim in the Derwent just down the road ,a bit shallow and rocky but after a long day refreshing .

EBCHESTER

Consett 3.4 miles; Beamish 10.3 miles; Newcastle upon Tyne 15.2 miles; Sunderland 22.3 miles

Durham City 15 miles. Ebchester is a charming village perched on the boundary of County Durham and Northumberland, a stone's throw away from the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village takes its name from the beautiful St Ebba’s Church and the roman fort of Vindomora. The village is home to a well-stocked village shop with all the essentials you need for a holiday and a pub, Derwent Walk Inn, for those wanting a hearty meal or refreshing pint. You will also find Ebchester West Wood, a stunning National Trust woodland home to a vast variety of wildlife, where you can take morning walks or runs, breathing in the fresh air. The forest borders the River Derwent where you will find a small cascading fall and during warmer months why not try some paddleboarding? Cycling opportunities abound in the near vicinity with access to the Sustrans maintained Coast to Coast Cycle route and some superb cycling roads in the North Pennines. Venture out and find the stunning village of Beamish, home to the world-famous “Beamish, the Living Museum of the North”, an open-air museum. Here you will find another pub, The Shepherd and Shepherdess, to dine at. Further afield is the bustling city of Newcastle upon Tyne, with its wealth of eateries, cafes for a family meal or a light lunch, theatres and music venues. Visit the beautiful cathedral, one of the city's museums, and when the sun is shining head to North or South Shields for a beach day. Whitley Bay and Tynemouth are also worth a visit. Visit the stunning Durham Cathedral & castle. Enjoy a wander around the city, a stroll along the riverbank and maybe take a rowing boat out onto the River Wear. Take the B6309 up Ebchester bank, through Leadgate and onto the A691 directly to Sniperly Park and Ride where you can pickup the bus into the city (£2.20 day return)
