This boutique-style converted stone build barn is surrounded by the County Durham countryside which can be admired from the private courtyard. Four guests and one canine companion can spend quality time in this elegant, well-sized, single-storey property with a colourful yet minimalist open-plan living space. Discover the nearby historical landmarks, rural villages and towns plus the wild North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
As you enter the property, you’ll notice the calming atmosphere of the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner created by pretty décor. On one side of the room, there’s an eye-catching one-wall kitchen with contrasting cabinets and surface tops. In the centre of the space is an antique-style circular table. In front of a patterned feature wall is a comfortable sofa and two plump armchairs surrounding a Smart TV. Completing the interior is a family shower room and two elegant bedrooms – both with king-size beds. Outside is a private courtyard with furniture and countryside views. Private parking for one car.
