Located down a private lane within the picturesque Weardale village of Sunniside, this charming barn conversion with luxury hot tub offers a tranquil escape for friends, family and a couple of canine companions. With its traditional stone-built exterior hiding a contemporary open-plan living space, it’s the perfect place to spend quality time with loved ones. Situated in the breathtaking Durham Dales, 2 miles from the stunning landscapes of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there's no end of tail-wagging adventures nearby.
Upon entering, you'll find a spacious open-plan layout seamlessly blending the lounge/kitchen/diner. The modern kitchen invites you to create delicious home-cooked meals using locally sourced ingredients. You can then gather around the dining table to share stories and savour the flavours of your creations. After dinner, sink into the plush sofas and unwind with a movie night on the impressive Smart TV while Rover snoozes at your feet. When bedtime beckons, choose from three generously sized bedrooms, each providing a peaceful haven for a restful night's sleep. The two double bedrooms offer ample space and comfort, with one featuring a private en-suite wet room, while the twin room offers a cosy retreat for younger family members or friends. Completing the accommodation is the white-tiled family bathroom with a shower over the bath. Step outside onto your private gravelled patio through the sliding patio doors, where you can enjoy the tranquil surroundings with your morning coffee. Relax with family and friends in the luxury hot tub set within a geodome so you can soak up the panoramic views, whatever the weather. During warmer months, fire up the BBQ and indulge in al fresco dining, and as night falls, gather around the fire pit to toast marshmallows and stargaze with your faithful friend at your side.
Surrounded by rolling hills and picturesque countryside, the property provides the perfect base for exploring the beauty of the region with superb walks to get tails wagging right from your doorstep. Nearby, Durham city centre (9 miles) awaits with its stunning cathedral and quaint streets filled with shops, cafes and dog-friendly pubs. Alternatively, a day trip to the seaside offers sandy beaches and coastal vistas, with Seaham's rugged coastline (30 miles) open for frolics with four-legged friends year-round.
