About this property
A delightful little detached cottage situated in the pretty Teesdale hamlet of Holwick. Created from the skilful conversion of an old stone barn which has also been used as the village reading room. The accommodation is upside down to take advantage of the views of the Holwick fells and beyond. Equipped, furnished and decorated to a high standard. A perfect place to relax and unwind. The owners live nearby and personally welcome visitors.
Situated at the end of a no-through-road in the heart of beautiful, unspoiled Teesdale, the village of Holwick is a lovely, peaceful place ideal for those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. The village is well served by local amenities and has a pub that serves food as well as a farm-butcher's shop with café situated on the owner's farm. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the surrounding region is a paradise for walkers and lovers of country life. Nearby, and within walking distance, is the magnificent waterfall of High Force whilst just a short distance away the Pennine Way passes close by. Middleton, Mickleton and Romaldkirk are wonderful picturesque villages in the near vicinity, whilst the ancient market town of Barnard Castle is well worth a visit.
