Property code: OC-S32614

This contemporary, stone-built cottage for four is an excellent base for a relaxing countryside break, with sweeping rural views across the beautiful County Durham landscape. Your faithful hound is just as welcome as you are, making it the ideal choice for families or friends who want to experience sociable, open-plan living in the heart of the countryside.

This characterful cottage has a quirky, upside-down layout that makes the most of its gorgeous views. Step inside the entrance hall before heading upstairs to the light-filled living space. Here, the lounge, kitchen, and dining area all sit beneath a striking apex roof, creating a bright, airy setting where everyone can stretch out and unwind after busy days. The stylish kitchen is fully equipped for easy self-catering, with a handy breakfast bar for a quick bite before departing on the next adventure. After a day exploring, sink into the reclining chairs or sofa for a film night with your furry friend snoozing happily at your feet. Downstairs, you'll find a cosy double bedroom and a cheerful twin room. The sleek bathroom completes the internal layout. Directly outside the front door is a bistro set for your morning coffee with a view while your canine pal takes in the fresh country air. A little further across the path is a lovely, decked area with grass all around, furnished with a table and chairs for leisurely al fresco dining.

Set on the edge of Crook, you’ll be perfectly placed to enjoy this pretty market town’s conservation area, local shops, and weekly market brimming with fresh local produce. The wild, peaceful moors of Weardale are 13 miles away, part of the stunning North Pennines National Landscape – superb for long rambles with your four-pawed pal. For history hounds, Durham offers an unforgettable day out.

Had a great weekend. The property was everything we needed (four adults, one infant and a small dog). Pub 5 minutes walk away. Good base for going into Durham or exploring Weardale and/orTeesdale. Would stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Stable Cottage from 6-9 February. Cottage was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Location is excellent. So quiet and a lovely view too. The welcome box was very nice. Would definitely recommend Stable Cottage.

Lovely warm and modern cottage. Very handy location for Durham and wider area. The upside down layout works very well and its nice to sit and look out over the fields.
