2 The Coach House, County Durham

A stone-built former coach house, boasting exposed stonework, an abundance of character and resting within the idyllic little village of Romaldkirk. Perfect for families or friends, this lovely cottage is everything you need for a memorable stay and the warm interior promises many peaceful nights in. The ground floor houses a wonderful kitchen/diner, beautifully presented so you can prepare those home-cooked meals in comfort and join your loved ones at the dining table. Afterwards, you can gather together in the sitting room, spending a few hours in front of the woodburner on a cooler evening. When it's time to wind down, wander up to the delightful bedrooms; a king-size with en-suite and a super king-size, boasting nothing less than charm and tradition. The twin set up is ideal for children, and a family bathroom is complete to a lovely standard with a hotel-quality finish. When you are not relaxing inside, outside is where you will want to be, enjoying a refreshing drink amongst the unspoilt surroundings. Romaldkirk has pretty greens, old stone cottages, an old church and two pubs. The northern Lakes and the cities of Durham and Newcastle are all within reaching distance, whilst the ancient market town of Barnard Castle, with its many historical and cultural attractions, is just a 10 minute drive away. All you need for a holiday to remember.
