Location Details

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.

From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?

Reviews

We have just returned from a lovely stay at Drovers Cottage. Cottage was immaculate and very cosy. Owners left milk, cheese and fruit loaf which was a lovely gesture. The Bay Horse Pub was very welcoming and within walking distance. Chinese and Cafe 10 in market place were also v good. Plenty of walks in Wolsingham and High Force Waterfalls and Barnard Castle worth a visit too. Overall an extremely.enjoyable break

Arrived Friday afternoon for the weekend and was immediately impressed with the cottage. Very clean and welcoming with a personal touch. fast free wifi and people were so friendly. We took the dogs with us and only a few minutes away from Hamsterley Forest. Local pubs were all dog friendly too. Perfect!

A really lovely, cosy cottage for two. It is in an excellent location, there are plenty of walks in the area. The town of Wolsingham is within walking distance and is a very attractive place. Would definitely go again.
