Ideal location

Lovely well equipped cottage located in a peacefull village handy for visiting Barnard Castle, Richmond, Darlington and Durham. Lots of wildlife to see. If you like country walks visit the nearby village of Whorlton and take the short walk from the church down to the river. We can recommend the service and the meals at the local FOUR ALLS pub locate a 5 minute walk away.
