Caroline Cottage, Teesdale
The property was perfect. It had everything we wanted. And what a perfect location from which to visit Northumbria, North Yorkshire, Durham Coast, and the Dales. We visited them All. Teesdale is beautiful, and Caroline Cottage was perfect.

Peace and relaxation
The property was beautifully located on the village green in a very quiet location but within easy reach of some great spots. Everything in the cottage was well maintained and the kitchen was well equipped. We would not hesitate to recommend Caroline Cottage and will visit again to see all of the sights we missed this time.

About the host

Hosted by Gillian Macfarlane

Host profile image
My name is Gillian. My family and I fell in love with Caroline Cottage and the area of Teesdale. During our holiday we found a quaint cottage up for sale in the pretty village of Romaldkirk. It was perfect, just what we'd dreamed of. My husband was also delighted that there were two pubs in the village, a minutes walk from the front door!! We knew we had a lot of hard work ahead of us, after all she is 200 years old. It has been a labour of love but well worth it and now we have a cosy cottage which we hope our guests will find warm and inviting.




Why they chose this property

Romaldkirk is a quaint village tucked away in the unspoilt Durham Dales. It boasts three village greens on one of which the old stocks still remain and a beautiful old church often called The Cathedral of the Dales. 2 Public houses within a 2 minute walk from Caroline Cottage.

The village has two pubs, one with a very popular restaurant and the other situated on the village green with outdoor seating and which is very popular with the numerous walkers who flock to the village. From the cottage a short walk across fields brings you to the lovely and sometimes quite wild River Tees.

High Force - the largest Waterfall in England
Barnard Castle - A historical market town
Raby Castle - where the deer roam freely
Bowes Museum - with hidden delights
Hamsterley Forest - great for exploring
and finally the route for the Pennine Way

What makes this property unique

Caroline Cottage overlooks one of the greens with a clear view to the rolling hills beyond. It was built in 1813 and was restored and furnished to a high standard late last year.
