Description
This lovely detached holiday cottage is a quaint 'home away from home’ perfect for families, couples or groups. The cottage is located within the stunning Beamish conservation area with stunning views over the valley, on a working stable yard with only horses as your neighbours.
Things to do
The Beamish Valley is located in a picturesque river setting, boasting everything from country inns and gastro pubs to an abundance of great cultural and historical days out.
Mole Hill Cottage is located close to Beamish Museum, the famous and largest open air museum, recreating early life in the North East over various points in history. You can take a ride on the worlds oldest steam engine railway, at at Tanfield Railway, through the picturesque Causey valley.
There are endless walks through the tranquil countryside, also suitable for keen cyclists, exploring the natural heritage and abundance of wildlife. Also, Beamish Lakes offers three crystal clear lakes for fishing and nearby Beamish Park Golf Club is perfect for a round of golf within their peaceful surroundings.
For those looking for adventure, Beamish Wild offers a High Ropes Treetop Adventure course and Archery for an instant adrenaline rush! Broom House Farm also offers an action packed family day out along the nature trail with exciting woodland challenges and obstacles from flying along zip wires, daring to enter the tunnels and climbing up towers! Beamish also offers horse riding.
The city of Durham itself, with its lovely cathedral, river walks and cobbled streets should not be missed. For cricket fans, Durham County Cricket Club’s ground, ’The Riverside’, is a short drive away at Chester-le-Street.
Beamish also has easy access to the A1, which will take you further north to Alnwick and the Northumberland Heritage Coast, where a day can be spent exploring the many historic castles and friendly villages set amongst unspoilt golden sandy beaches.

“Great escape”
Lovely little cottage next to stables(Which were immaculate too). Very secluded with two pubs within walking distance, the black horse was lovely, open fire and delicious food. The kitchen was definitely the heart of the property, well equipped, (Including two fridges, that was a great addition), clean and a lovely cake on the table when we arrived. Both bathrooms had a roll top bath, shower and toilet. The bedrooms were a great size And very comfy beds. The lounge had books, a desk, a tv and video/dvd player, so definitely take some dvds with you for cosy nights in. If I could make a Little suggestion - a wine fridge for that room Would be a great addition, although my thighs enjoyed the benefit of going down stairs for a top up. The beach we reached in less than an hour and lovely walks close by. If you want to just get away, relax I would recommend. Amanda the host was lovely - all in all we had a great break, in a lovely Cosy and homely cottage. Kind regards, Laura

“Exquisite cottage”
Beautiful cottage; exceptional, interesting, welcoming and nourishing for the soul. Lovely, friendly hosts that go the extra mile to ensure you have all you need and are appreciated! We felt so special when we arrived to a delicious chocolate cake! The log fire is divine, the views are stunning and having horses as your only neighbours is everything you need for the perfect getaway. We would defiantly love to return and highly recommend!
