Immerse yourself in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on your stay in this paw-friendly property in County Durham where fantastic walkies are all around, including the trails of the Weardale Way and Warren’s Peak. Back at home, every detail has been considered for both humans and hounds, with a comfortable bed and treats especially for your four-legged friend.

Bursting with character from the exposed wooden beams and featuring a wood burner fireplace, the living room is a lovely place to relax with plenty of seating for all the family. Next door, the open-plan kitchen diner is filled with quirky feature furniture, offset against pretty cupboards to create a unique space to cook and eat in. All three bedrooms can be found on the first floor, with an elegant king-size room and a modern en-suite shower room, making it a wonderful place for a good night’s sleep. The second bedroom is a family room featuring both a double bed and a single bed, perfect for those with a young child, and the final room is a twin. Completing the property is the modern bathroom with a large skylight filling the room with natural light whilst you shower or bathe. Outside, the garden offers a great space for kids and canines to burn off any extra energy, whilst the seating area is ideally positioned to make the most of the far-reaching views of this beautiful part of the country.

Just under 3 miles away is Frosterley, the closest village where you’ll find a small selection of eateries including a pub for the days when you wish to stay closer to home. Soak in the scenery by hopping aboard the Weardale Railway line which welcomes dogs to enjoy the journey with you for a relaxing afternoon activity. Alternatively, head deeper into the North Pennines to visit High Force Waterfall (15 miles) and experience natural beauty at its finest, combined with a woodland walk with plenty of exciting scents to sniff en route.

Well equipped and spacious cottage in an isolated but beautiful location. We stayed for Christmas with all the family and it was ideal. Big dining kitchen with a Rayburn stove to keep it warm and a cosy lounge with a log burner. Lots of nearby walks and places to explore. Lovely to see the sun rise over the hill Boxing Day morning and see the Moon Read morerise over the hill in the afternoon. Hide

A superb cottage in a superb location. We can only recommend this cottage. The location is quite remote, it is not the right cottage if you want to nip to the pub in the evening, but for everything else it is magnificent.

We enjoyed a lovely week at Camperdown the 1st week in September. The cottage was equipped with everything you could possibly need, homemade cake & a welcome pack on arrival. There were even spare supplies for the dogs. The host was lovely & informed us that there was a local show being held nearby over the weekend, she also recommended local pubs,Read more cafe's & shops. There were also leaflets for local attractions in the cottage. The cottage was very comfortable & the garden was lovely. Hide
