Located down a private lane on the owner's equestrian centre in the small Weardale village of Sunniside, this delightful barn conversion offers a quiet setting for families and groups of friends with two dogs in tow. Surrounded by rolling hills and countryside, with the Durham Dales and North Pennines also nearby, this is the perfect base for walkers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Stride out on the trails from the doorstep or head further afield for busier days out in the city – bustling Durham is 9 miles away, while Newcastle’s many attractions are within 23 miles. For days on the coast, Seaham's rugged shoreline is 30 miles away, with charming Whitley Bay waiting just beyond.


Head into the social heart of the property – the open-plan living space that combines a well-appointed kitchen with a dining and lounge area. This spacious room boasts far-reaching countryside views and is soaked in natural light thanks to the glass patio doors. Cook up a group feast in the kitchen with its modern amenities and ample countertop space. Dine in the light of the patio doors, and afterwards, unwind in the inviting lounge space as you sink into the leather sofas and flick on the Smart TV. At the end of each day away, feel the underfloor heating on your toes as you walk over to a choice of three restful bedrooms. Choose from two double rooms – one with an en-suite wet room – and a cosy twin. A well-equipped family bathroom completes the interior.


Step through the patio doors and out onto your every own gravelled patio where rural views, outdoor furniture, a fire pit and BBQ combine to offer everything needed for peaceful morning coffees and al fresco evening meals. On starry nights, gather in the bubbling hot, which sits in a unique geodome, meaning you can soak weary walking muscles come rain or shine. Guests will also benefit from ample private parking.
