The house suited me down to the ground in a village I love visiting. It was in a great location with an enclosed rear garden. Everything was clean and tidy and I was very happy with the house,

**Brand new to the market** A cosy yet spacious cottage dating back to 1800, located in the small village of Frosterley. We have recently modernised our property throughout in the last 12 months, including replacing the old unreliable oil heating system for a more efficient new gas central system to maximise our customer's comfort. We have strived to find the correct balance of modernisation and maintaining some of the cottage's original features to match it's beautiful character. We aim to make our cottage feel like a home from home for our guests where you can forget about daily stresses and relax in the stunning countryside of Weardale. We hope to cater for families, couples, walkers with animal friends also welcome if required. It goes without saying that the property is deeply cleaned in between guests. If anybody has any questions regarding our property or anything else please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your time! When visiting our cottage you will find: - Self check-in - Everything you will need to cook (apart from the food of course!) - Tea & coffee - Fresh bedding & towels - BT TV & WIFI - Iron & ironing board - Hair dryer - Coat hangers
Hi All, We are Jordan & Danielle. We've recently married and are expecting our first child in 2021! This is our first Holiday Let property, it is something we have wanted to do for a long time and now it's finally ready we'd love to welcome you to it. We like to travel around and stay different places ourselves, so we appreciate the value of comfort and being able to make yourself at home. Our goal is to operate future Holiday Lets in different locations, however not before making sure we get this one right first. During your stay we will be available for contact 24/7 should you have any concerns or problems.
Frosterley is a small village situated in Weardale which lies in between the market towns of Wolsingham (3mi) and Stanhope (2.5mi). Located 18 miles from Durham City which is easily accessible by car or local buses for guests wanting to experience the City. Weardale offers stunning surrounding countryside where guests can enjoy ample routes to walk/bike/run as much you like. After a long day of exploring you can grab a bite to eat in one of two friendly pubs, make use of The Village Chip Bar or if you prefer to cook then ingredients can be purchased from the local Coop (larger stores located in Stanhope/Wolsingham) Some suggestions of things to do around the area include: - Explore the river Wear which runs through Frosterley - Walk along the disused Frosterley Marble quarry which has been used for flooring and columns in Durham Cathedral - Ride the Weardale Railway by boarding at Frosterley's very own station - Stanhope Open Air Swimming pool - heated to 27 Degrees - Hamsterley Forest - A popular forest with a range of activities on offer for the whole family (7.7 mi) - Derwent Reservoir - Somewhere to stop on the way to enjoy a short walk and appreciate the wildlife (16.4 mi)
