“This was our second visit to Little Owl and it was just as good as the first.”

The Lodge is very comfortable and quiet, and really well equipped Many places to visit by car. Duham Dales, Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District plus Reeth, Tan Hill Inn etc. It was also nice to see the owners, Pat and Yvonne, again. Nothing is too much trouble for them. (sorry we didn't say goodbye) We are already looking forward to our third visit.

“Another lovely stay at Little Owl Lodge.”

Pat and Yvonne very helpful and friendly. This was our second stay in a couple of months. Had the opportunity to feed the Alpacas this time. Added to the interest of our stay. Well recommended.

Head West to spend the day in Barnard Castle, set on the site of a Roman fort, where the medieval castle ruins still tower over the River Tees. The town boasts quaint cobbled streets, yards and back lanes, which were first laid out in the 12th century, along with rows of attractive, old stone houses. The town centre hosts an arts complex should you be in search of a bit of culture, whilst there’s a range of independent shops to peruse, where you’re certain to find the perfect holiday keepsake. A short drive eastward from Butterknowle brings you to bustling town of Bishop Auckland, elevated above the River Wear and known as the Gateway to Weardale.On the outskirts of the town you can wander the ancient stones of the Binchester Roman Fort, the largest in the county. Beautiful walking country is right on the doorstep of this village, with the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just a few miles away, whilst an array of interesting towns and a wealth of historic attractions can all be found within an easy drive.
