Set in the Yorkshire countryside just outside the village of Neasham, this delightful cottage offers scenic accommodation for up to six guests, perfect for families and groups of friends. Nestled just south of Darlington (6 miles), Neasham charms with its beautiful surrounding countryside and rich history. For a livelier local town, Darlington’s vibrant centre is great for mooching with its wealth of boutique shops, cafes and restaurants. For an indulgent afternoon while your other half plays a round of golf, Rockliffe Hall Golf and Spa Resort is only 3 miles away, while outdoor lovers should savour a trip to Harwick Park (14 miles) with its landscaped gardens and scenic trails. With North Yorkshire’s and Durham’s golden coastlines only 28 miles away, guests can transform this rural getaway into a coastal one, enjoying day trips to the likes of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Seaton Carew and Hartlepool.
Step inside this charming cottage and be greeted by a bright and airy, open-plan living space that seamlessly blends comfort and style. To your left, the inviting lounge awaits, surrounding a delightful wood burner, perfect for cosy evenings together. Gather here after days of rural walking, flicking on the Smart TV for easy evening entertainment. On warmer days, open the impressive bi-fold doors here to let the fresh country air flow in. When stomachs begin to rumble, move over to the other side of the room where a wooden dining table sets the perfect scene for group meals. Just behind this is the well-appointed, country-style kitchen with its sleek granite worktops, wooden units and sociable island where you can sit to keep the chef company. Find all you need in the kitchen to cook up a group feast, perhaps using the local ingredients you sourced earlier in the day. At the end of each day away, let the wood burner die down and move through the house to choose from three sumptuous bedrooms, the first of which is on the ground floor. This bedroom offers an inviting double bed, its own Smart TV and a fantastic en-suite shower room with underfloor heating. Up on the first floor, choose from another double bedroom and a master king-size, both of which boast countryside views and well-equipped en-suite shower rooms with more underfloor heating for those chilly mornings.
Outside awaits a wonderful, private space in which to unwind and soak up the surrounding farmland and river scenery. A spacious patio looks over the lawn, offering the perfect spot to meet for al fresco evening meals or to simply soak up the Yorkshire sun using the loungers. Find a charcoal BBQ here too, if you fancy grilling some locally-sourced meat. For those who enjoy fishing, the river is just a short stroll away, offering a peaceful spot to cast a line. If you’re seeking even more indulgence, the large hot tub, which comfortably seats up to six people, invites you to sink in and unwind. Ample private parking is also available for your comfort and convenience.
