Hauxwell Grange Cottages

Barnard Castle 2 miles. These delightful stone built cottages are situated just two miles from the popular town of Barnard Castle. Superbly set in stunning countryside, these Barnard Castle cottages would suit anyone wanting peace and tranquillity while being within easy reach of a network of wonderful footpaths tracing the upper reaches of the River Tees. With one cottage set all on the ground floor, the accommodation is suitable for a variety of groups. Both cottages have a multi-fuel stove to keep you warm on any cooler evenings and outside is a front patio where you can enjoy your morning cup of tea. A short drive brings you to the popular, historic market town of Barnard Castle with a host of antique shops, tea rooms and independent shops. Be sure to visit the river bank at the foot of the castle and serious walkers can take the 15 mile hike further upstream to High Force and Cauldron Snout. Nearby are the Bowes Museum and Raby Castle with its splendid grounds and deer park. This is a wonderful holiday base, whatever the time of year.

Second visit, as lovely as the first, having nice accommodation to come back to at the end of a wet, cold and windy day makes all the difference, all’s good at curlew cottage,

- Mrs Hartley, April 2021
Mr Alcock April 2021

“First time in renting a cottage, hence expectations were unknown.”

Curlew cottage could not have been any better, everything about it was excellent. Little extras, e.g flowers and welcome pack made this a holiday we’d like to repeat. On the basis of this trip in which the whole process was superb, from the booking process to leaving the cottage, we look forward to our next two bookings of Sykes cottages in Cornwall. We heartily recommend Sykes and will certainly use them again.

Mrs Dixon February 2020

“We were so comfortable in this lovely cottage while storm Denis raged outside.”

The cottage was clean, warm and very well equipped including a hairdryer which I wish Sykes would include in their listings. I've packed a hairdryer to go to several Sykes cottages only to find one already there. We chose the cottage as it is all on one level and has a shower cubicle which is lovely when you cannot get into a bath. This cottage is in our favourite area of England and we had a warm welcome there. Would certainly like to go again.

- Mrs Dixon, February 2020

About the location

BARNARD CASTLE

Staindrop 6 miles; Richmond 13 miles; Darlington 16 miles; Durham 20 miles.

The market town of Barnard Castle is situated in the unspoilt countryside of Teesdale in County Durham. It stands on the site of an ancient Roman fort which crosses the river. The medieval ruins of the castle still tower over the river and are well worth a visit. Known affectionately as 'Barney’ by residents and visitors alike, the town boasts cobble streets, yards and back lanes, which were first laid out in the 12th century. The nearby Bowes Museum is well worth a visit and a wonderful way to spend a day wandering around this beautiful building and experiencing the fascinating exhibitions. Beautiful walking country is right on the doorstep of this lovely market town, with woodland walks and cycle routes and the Lake District, the Pennine and Teesdale Ways, and the River Tees and magnificent waterfalls at High Force are all within easy reach.
