  • "This is our second visit to Low Thearns."

    We have been staying in holiday cottages for over 20 years and this is the best one we have ever stayed in. The property is warm, comfortable and well equipped and the thoughtful owner Sally-Ann, has furnished and decorated the cottage so tastefully it really is outstanding. There is so much to do within half an hour’s drive and lots of local walks too. The village is picturesque, with friendly locals and plenty of eateries plus a Co-op. Book this property you will not regret it, the only problem is you will compare every cottage you stay in afterwards to Low Thearns, and you will struggle to find anywhere as fabulous.

    The cottage is comfortable, clean and very well equipped. The welcome pack and free range eggs were lovely, a real special touch, and very much appreciated. The owners are there if you need anything. Sally Ann and her family provide that personal touch, which is nice. I have already shared our gratitude with Sally Ann for their help during our stay. We enjoyed a relaxing week at Low Thearns, just what we needed.

  • "This is a beautiful cottage, every attention to detail has been thought through and everything is of a high standard and quality."

    The cottage is so cosy and spotlessly clean. We stayed during the recent storm and it was a perfect excuse to stay in, put the fire on, drink wine, watch a good film and enjoy the cottage. It’s situated in a lovely village and we would recommend the local butchers and Samuel James coffee shop and deli. Barnard Castle is a nice place to visit and high force a lovely place to walk to. The owner Sally Ann came to introduce herself and check we were ok. When we arrived the lamps and heating were on creating a lovely warm welcome and a thoughtful welcome pack was awaiting us. I would recommend this cottage to anyone you will not be disappointed, we have stayed at many cottages and this is by far the best we have stayed in.

The property

Resting in the charming market town of Middleton-in-Teesdale, County Durham in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is Low Thearns.

This wonderful, stone-fronted cottage benefits from off-road parking, close proximity to local amenities and two well-appointed bedrooms, perfect for couples, small families or friends looking to explore the surrounding area.

Be welcomed by a homely living/dining area where you can warm your feet by the crackling woodburning stove before heading into the fully-equipped kitchen to help whip up tasty meals for the whole group.

Gather around the dining table to tuck in or if the sun is shining step outside to indulge in an alfresco affair in the enclosed garden; be sure to pop open a bottle of fizz to toast your retreat.

When stars fill the sky, head inside to wash away the day in the ground-floor shower room before choosing between the king-size or ground-floor twin to catch your rest.

Low Thearns lies paces away from local convenience stores where you can pick up necessities to help ease your self-catered stay or treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at the Teesdale Hotel or the Forresters Bar and Restaurant.

The property lies on the fringes of the North Pennines which is bursting at the seams with a variety of walks and trails including idyllic trails leading to Summerhill Force and Gibson’s Cave, Easter Beck, Cauldrons Snout and the famed High Force Waterfall which drops a dramatic 69 feet.

History is woven throughout the encompassing countryside; marvel at Barnard Castle, traverse the ruins of the fabulous Egglestone Abbey or admire the imposing, medieval Raby Castle which houses art and tapestries.

The Yorkshire Dales National Park is also easily accessible by a short scenic drive and is home to a myriad of attractions and the iconic three peaks challenge which the brave among you may try to complete!

Make unforgettable memories at Low Thearns.
