We have had a wonderful 2 week stay at The Barn with our inlaws staying in adjoining Coach House. The House is great, beautifully decorated with everything you need and some lovely little extras like nice soaps etc. Debbie and Nigel are so lovely, showed us round and explained how everything worked, they have been on hand for anything we might need. The paddock at the back is great for the dog, she loved chasing her ball (and rabbits & pheasants!) the view from the top is really lovely. The hot tub is great for relaxing after a long day exploring the area. We enjoyed a few long dog walks along part of the Weardale Way which can access from the village. Enjoyed a drink and pizza in the local pub. Chip shop on Frosterly and Stanhope are good and the Indian in Stanhope is great too. Woolsingham just a few mins drive has a lovely Italian that we went to one evening, also has a local park with ice cream van which kids enjoyed. There are two lovely bakery’s one in Stanhope and one in Woolsingham for some nice lunch treats and also lovely fruit/veg/florist in Stanhope. We went swimming at Woolsingham pool and also larger pool with flume and waves in Spennymoor. Enjoyed a day out to Hall Hill Farm Park and Homeside Park. The in laws enjoyed Bowes museum and Barnard Castle. Bishop Aukland (30 mins) has a good retail park and large supermarkets. We have had a great 2 weeks here and would highly recommend to anyone

We had a lovely week's stay at the Barn in Frosterly in April 2023, and the local Teeside area was lovely too.
The property is in a great location, we loved the hot tub and the garden, and field at the back as our dog could run around and the owners were so friendly and helpful.
I also highly recommend Roots of India takeaway which is in Stanhope a 5 minute car journey away, great food and not expensive.
