About this property

The Old Queen's Head is a second floor apartment, within an old coaching house in the centre of Wolsingham, in the North Pennine Durham Dales. This beautifully decorated, self-catering apartment provides everything you need for an enjoyable, comfortable holiday, making a lovely place to relax and rest between exploring all that Wolsingham and the surrounding area has to offer, and just a short walk from an array of pretty shops, pubs and restaurants. There is one comfortable bedroom with an en-suite shower room and an open plan living area with a well-equipped kitchen, lovely dining area and comfy sitting area. Why not go exploring in nearby Hamsterley Forest, hire a bike or a horse for the day and discover the beauty of nature at its finest? A short drive from Wolsingham will take you to a host of exciting local attractions including Barnard Castle, Bowes, High Force and Durham Cathedral. A little further afield are the delights of the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales or the Northumberland Heritage Coastline, or you can simply enjoy the hospitality of the town of Wolsingham. This charming apartment is perfect for couples to take a relaxing and romantic break with stunning countryside nearby.

The picturesque market town of Wolsingham sits at the entrance to Weardale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty nestled within the North Pennines. Boasting many period features and stone-built listed buildings, the town is a popular stop-off point for visitors at the base of the Weardale Valley. The town boasts a number of well-regarded pubs, cafes and restaurants as well as convenience shops and takeaways. It also has the Wolsingham Agricultural Show, held every year on the first weekend in September. Nearby is the village of Hamsterley which sits on the brow of a hill between Teesdale and Weardale, on the edge of the North Pennines. Boasting an old village pub, the village is just two miles from Hamsterley Forest, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which covers 2000 hectares of mixed woodland and has an abundance of wildlife.

  • Alison

    Ideally located for exploring Weardale, lovely walks from the door.

  • Paul

    It has everything you need and is very comfortable for a few days or a week or more. There are so many lovely walks from the door that you hardly need to move the car. Free parking nearby is straightforward enough, you just need to be considerate of the locals and not take their usual spaces.

  • Michael

    Will probably return in the future.
