Stables Cottage, Barnard Castle

This charming Yorkshire Dales holiday property lies two miles away from Whorlton and is situated on a former farm three miles from Barnard Castle. The cottage has been imaginatively converted from an old stone stable, and much consideration has been taken to transform the property into a unique and superior holiday cottage whilst retaining the original features and character.

The property is served by underfloor heating, making it a cosy place to stay off-season and in the depths of winter. There is also an outdoor play area for the children and a small private courtyard for guests to relax. To the rear of the property is open farmland and many pathways to explore, making this an idyllic rural retreat at any time of year.

Want for nothing!

A very comfortable, well equipped, warm (underfloor heating) cottage. Everything we needed was there. Within easy reach of Barnard Castle where there was a large supermarket & lots of individual shops & a weekly market. Very close to Bowes Castle if weather is inclement. Within easy reach of beautiful countryside & attractive towns & villages. An excellent base, with friendly helpful owners.

Fantastic property, very modern, open plan feel with lots of natural light. The high ceilings also provided a real sense of space. The cottage was immaculate and extremely comfortable. With the owner having kindly baked a delicious cake along with providing milk tea and coffee for our arrival, we were made very welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay from start to finish. We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

The cottage was comfortable, welcoming and so clean. Very well furnished with lovely little touches. Our host was very helpful. Loved her special bread!

Mr Hale

Very safe for our toddler - an enclosed patio area, no steps, counter-level oven, safety feature on hobs etc. Knowing he was safe to run around and enjoy himself made our holiday! Our son also enjoyed seeing the chickens and using the play equipment.

The accommodation exceeded our expectations and the welcome we received was very cordial. The accommodation was central to the places we had planned to visit and there were other suggestions available in the cottage if we had run out of ideas.

The property was all on one level and not allowing pets and smoking was ideal for anyone with access difficulties and allergies.
