    “Really enjoyed our stay in September for 3 nights.”

    Everything was exactly as described, just wish we had been able to stay longer.

The property

The Turnip Barn is a stunning conversion of a historic listed farm building, resting on the edge of Witton Gilbert in County Durham.

Brimming with original character and surrounded by endless opportunities for exploration, this inviting retreat promises a memorable base for discovering this remarkable region.

Step inside the stone-built property to find an impressive kitchen/diner, complete with a striking timber pillar, sleek granite worktops, and a spacious dining table for six.

The ground floor also features a generous sitting room, enhanced by a woodburning stove set within an attractive fireplace.

Ascend the staircase, framed by exposed beams, to uncover three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each boasting its own en-suite for added convenience.

Outside, a manicured lawn offers a tranquil spot to relax with a drink.

The heart of Witton Gilbert is close by, home to two welcoming pubs and a handy convenience store, while scenic walking and cycling routes lie just beyond the doorstep.

Venture further to the historic city of Durham, only two miles away via the park and ride, or explore the breathtaking North Pennines AONB and vibrant Newcastle for shopping and culture.

Gather your loved ones for an unforgettable countryside escape at The Turnip Barn.

About the location

DURHAM

The city itself offers elegant buildings and fascinating narrow streets with excellent shopping, eating and drinking to suit all tastes. Add to that the ease of access to the rest of this historic county, “Land of the Prince Bishops”, and Durham has much to offer the discerning traveller, from Medieval castles to marvellous landscapes and scenic walks.
