This property has been renovated to the highest possible standards.
Itâs simply fantastic. Weâve just returned home from 10. Superb nights. We always look for minimum four star, preferably five. This is by far the best property weâve stayed in in the UK. Katey and her family live two minutes away, and are super helpful. Nothing being too much trouble. There is off-road parking for a minimum of 4/5 cars The lawned garden wraps around the property with a table and a seating area and a barbecue area. The views from the garden are fantastic, uninterrupted panoramic views of all the open countryside. The best view is to the west where you see the forest and the hills, and itâs relaxing, watching the sunset On entering the property through the front porch to the left of the hallway is the large kitchen diner and lounge To the right of the hallway is the downstairs double bedroom which is of a good size next to. That is a brilliant utility room with plenty of space for storage and a spare fridge. Next to that is the downstairs wet room which is six star. absolutely fantastic with the rain shower with attachment, wash basin and WC Upstairs there are two double bedrooms both are good size one being twin beds thereâs a shower room with rain shower and attachment basin and WC. The main bedroom is an excellent size with an ensuite consisting of bath, rainshower attachments above wash basin and WC. All fitted to the highest possible standard. The beds are extremely comfortable. The property is a great position to explore County Durham with all the wonderful history and scenery. We will definitely return Wishing everyone happy holidays. Cheers.

Our group was 5 adults, a 3 year old and 2 dogs.
The property was absolutely perfect for us in terms of size and layout, allowing for the dog owners to take the downstairs double bedroom to be near them overnight. The enclosed garden was a great bonus for dogs and kid, but our chosen weekend was on the cold side so I'm sure we'd use it more in the summer months. We had a great welcome to the property and found everything we needed once inside for cooking etc. The owners left a great pack with local info and tailored recommendations for our child, as she had called us to check who was coming and how old they were. She had also left lots of toys and some children's bowls/cutlery etc which meant less to pack in the car. The contact with our host was great and she was always on hand to answer questions. The place is nicely decorated and very clean. The beds were very comfortable too. In terms of local area, we visited the vast Hamsterly forest numerous times for dog walks, never seeing the same part twice. The riverside walk from the visitor centre was perfect for our 3 year old and included lots of playgrounds and a Gruffalo activity. Fish and chips from Miners Munchies was nice (cash only) and we visited a couple of localish pubs. Despite the cold we had the most amazing skies with expanded views over the hills. I'm sure we'll be back in the future, maybe in the summer months next time!

We absolutely loved our stay in the flat above 27.
The flat is actually in the village of Stanhope, about 20 minutes drive from Bishop Auckland. The village is beautiful - the river walk especially - and there is a Co-Op, butchers, bakers etc as well as a really good chippy and Indian. There is a pub directly next door which looked good, and wasn't noisy from the flat. It was the perfect location for us. The flat seems to have been recently refurbished in order to cater for holiday rentals. It's a really high standard throughout. There were a few little things we would add; black out curtains in the bedroom rather than just blinds, wooden/plastic cooking utensils rather than metal ones (we tried really hard not to scratch the pans!). The king mattress could probably use a topper as well. A welcome pack would also be helpful to set expectations on cleaning, recycling, etc. But these are just little things and did not affect our enjoyment of the place. Would highly recommend this beautiful flat and village for anyone looking for a holiday.

The cottage was as described, very welcoming and comfortable, very clean and tidy .
The kitchen has every thing we needed and more besides. The bedrooms were very comfortable and large enough for our needs. The bathroom was very good and clean. The only catch indie the cottage was that none of the bedroom doors could be closed as all the door handles and locks were either damaged or falling apart. The bathroom door was the only door that fastened properly but the did have a 2 inch gap at the bottom of the door, also the water pump in this room was extremely load and seemed to rattle throughout the house. The only other 2 things was the steep steps outside could do with a hand rail as they are very sloppy when wet or frozen. And the parking was bad as the neighbour had parked his van,car and motorbike outside so I had to park further down the road. I would still recommended the cottage as these things can be fixed , as for the location it was perfect , peaceful with very stunning views and central to all locations. We loved it and would go here again.

A very well appointed, clean and comfortable apartment with a large well equipped kitchen and fabulous shower in the bathroom.
The apartment is situated on the Front Street, Stanhope, close to all amenities with an Indian Takeaway and Co-op store with ATM on one side and a pub on the other with the Everyday Cafe below. Parking is restricted to two hours but there is ample parking across the road in the square. As the apartment is on the main street there is road/traffic noise but this becomes un-noticeable after a short while. We stayed over the Christmas/New Year period and the owners kindly left a lovely welcome pack and had decorated the living room. We had a very enjoyable and relaxing holiday, the only negative was two power cuts which plunged the whole village into total darkness, for at least up to an hour on one occasion. Thankfully we had a couple of torches to get us through until power was restored. The area is ideal for keen walkers to explore the Weardale Valley and places of interest are within 30/40 minutes drive of the apartment. We would thoroughly recommend this to anyone.
