Description

Bursting with character inside and out, this beautifully renovated cottage offers charming accommodation in a peaceful rural setting.

Set within 100 acres of fields and woodland, this property enjoys panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. The immediate grounds have plenty to offer, from a picturesque 14th century chapel filled with myths and legends to a private mile stretch of fishing on the River Derwent, not to mention a fantastic selection of walking, cycling and bird watching opportunities. Rowlands Gill is less than half a mile away, offering a good range of shops, newsagents, restaurants and takeaways, while the nearest pub is located one mile away in Burnopfield. For a day out with a difference, experience the Beamish open-air museum, which is set within 300 acres of County Durham countryside, or head to nearby Newcastle for some retail therapy.

Prepare tasty meals in the traditional kitchen, which offers ample workspace, a sociable breakfast barn and a door leading out to the garden. The lounge/diner next door is a cosy and welcoming room with a dining table, roaring wood burner, large comfortable sofa, TV/DVD. Here, you will also find a good selection of books and games for relaxing evenings in. Also, on the ground floor is the master double bedroom, which features a TV, dressing table, plenty of storage space and fabulous views across the garden and towards the Derwent Valley. There is a tiled family bathroom seperate shower.
