Warm and welcoming, this cottage is a great choice of base for a family in Barnard Castle. The 12th-century castle is a short walk away, and you’ll also be within easy reach of indie boutiques, antique shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants. This is a cosy home-from-home with a log burner that’s ideal for winter visits, and a garden with a patio and barbecue for summer stays. The well-equipped kitchen-diner makes this home as practical as it is comfortable.
