Lily's Cottage

About this property

Located in the pretty village of St John's Chapel, surrounded by the North Pennines AONB, is Lily's Cottage at number 16 Hood Street. Finished to a lovely standard of quality inside and with access to many interesting attractions in the area, this mid-terrace cottage offers a cosy home-from-home feel. It is perfect for a family of four or a couple looking to explore the Pennine hill range. Step into the living room, which is warmed by the central heating and the additional imitation woodburner. There is a TV and plush furnishings to relax and unwind after a long day of walking or cycling. At the rear of the property is a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and a dining area, with a door out to the courtyard. Gather for tasty meals and chat late into the night about the adventures you've had and plan for the day's ahead. Upstairs are the two bedrooms; a double with views over the caravan park at the rear and a twin, both sharing the lavish shower room. On a summer's afternoon, sit out on the patio with a cool beverage in hand and enjoy this refreshing location. You have many pubs nearby to choose form should you wish to get out and experience a different atmosphere. You also have a Post Office to hand, along with a shop and cafe. Stanhope is the nearest market town, with a delightful high street, a heated outdoor swimming pool and riverside walks. The city of Durham is within easy reach, a World Heritage Site offering its imposing castle and stunning cathedral, plus Hadrian's Wall is not too far away. With ancient forests, glorious wildlife and many picturesque walking routes a stone's throw away, this cottage makes the ideal base for you.

This County Durham village sits in Weardale in the heart of the North Pennines aonb. As well as two village pubs, St John's Chapel offers a Post Office, a shop and a café. The nearby market town of Stanhope sits on the fringes of the aonb and offers a wider choice of amenities as well as an art gallery and an outdoor pool. The city of Durham is slightly further afield but well worth a visit.
