Stanhope is 10 mins away and Barnard Castle 30 mins.. great for runs out. Some nice local shops and cafes. Would deffo return. ##### Paul B. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sharon C. 9 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Cottage was very cute, dog friendly garden and clean throughout.It is very remote in the hills so a car is a must. My husband is 6ft tall so found it small and couldn’t stand up straight in the shower. There wasn’t anything to do within walking distance, unless it’s walking you want to do.There were 2 dogs next door who were quite barky when our dog was in the garden which was a bit annoying.The hosts left a gift package which was welcome and the cottage was well equipped with everything you need. ##### Sharon C.
