  • Delightful cottage set on a 100-acre working farm with opportunities to meet the animals
  • Situated close to the North Pennines AONB, perfect for walkers and cyclists
  • Ideal base for exploring the stunning Durham Dales and just a short drive from the historic city of Durham
Property code: 36675

This quaint and cosy cottage is situated deep in the Durham Dales, a glorious landscape featuring majestic moorland, meandering rivers and sweeping hills. Just 2 miles from the sleepy village of Wolsingham, it’s the perfect bolthole for a romantic getaway accompanied by two tufty-pawed pals. Don your walking boots and set off to explore the surrounding farmland, visiting the animals and investigating riverside paths, nature trails and even an ancient monument. Return weary-pawed to a thoughtful welcome pack, restoring your energy for a quick challenge in the shared games room.

 

Single-level and packed with home comforts, this delightful cottage is warm and welcoming. Relax on the sofa with a good book, or choose an exciting film to enjoy over a warming glass of red. Mealtimes are a real treat thanks to the country-cottage-style kitchen, where you can cook up a storm guaranteed to get Fido’s nose going. After a deliciously hot shower, retreat to the snug bedroom for a restful night’s sleep, dreaming of the next day’s adventures. The private seating area outside is an idyllic spot for a pot of fresh morning coffee, a peaceful setting for watching the farm come to life in the early morning dew.

 

Based just 3 miles from the North Pennines, you’ll be able to explore the fabulous countryside on foot, bike or even on horseback. The nearby village of Wolsingham has a very pooch-friendly pub, where your little pack will receive a warm welcome. Be sure to visit the historic city of Durham 15 miles away for an unforgettable day trip; the stunning architecture of the castle and cathedral alone is enough to transport you back in time. If you are feeling brave, climb the steep tower for awe-inspiring views!

Lovely well presented accommodation. In an ideal setting for exploring, with the benefit of having a tea room located next door, which allows you to bring your furry friend with you, and had a ready supply of dog biscuits to help yourself to (or the dog!) Will definitely return here. Hare cottage is perfect for a couples get away, and the dog!
