Enjoy a cosy couples retreat in the heart of County Durham, staying with your nearest and dearest and man’s best friend! Boasting space for the entire pack, this property lovingly welcomes two human guests and two dogs to explore the stunning countryside that Durham has to offer. Leave no stick unfetched when exploring the rambles and hiking routes all around you, heading home at the end of each day to take a dip in your private wood-fired hot tub as Fido and Rover enjoy free roam of the enclosed garden or curl up indoors where it’s cosy and warm. Beautifully renovated with a contemporary style, this home-from-home accommodation offers an instant welcome from the moment you arrive. An open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner on the ground floor features plenty of space for your dogs’ favourite bed and bowl from home, as well as direct access to the garden via French doors which always comes in handy. Let your dearest doggos curl up and dream of chasing wildlife as you prepare a romantic meal for two or binge watch something on the Smart TV. When it’s time for bed you’ll be pleased to let sleeping dogs lie in a comfy spot down here as you venture on up to a luxurious king-sized boudoir. Lead the way to adventure and exercise your canine companions with walks along the River Wear (0.5 miles), perhaps ending your journey in Willington (3 miles) or Bishop Auckland (3.5 miles) where dog-friendly pubs await. The Low Barns Nature Reserve (6.5 miles) features fascinating wildlife and wetlands, perfect for an easy-going option for walkies, whilst the historic city of Durham (8 miles) is close by for an enjoyable afternoon of discovering the area’s rich history.
