    “We had a wonderful time staying in Fox’s Den.”

    We loved the accommodation, which had everything we needed. The facilities were excellent (the good quality air fryer made cooking meals easy, along with a well equipped kitchen). The accommodation was spotless. The weather was very cold on arrival, but Fox’s Den was cozy and warm. The location was ideal, with a friendly host and plenty of walks and cycle routes on the door step. Raby Castle and grounds were fascinating and only a couple of miles up the road. We thoroughly enjoyed ...

    We loved the accommodation, which had everything we needed. The facilities were excellent (the good quality air fryer made cooking meals easy, along with a well equipped kitchen). The accommodation was spotless. The weather was very cold on arrival, but Fox’s Den was cozy and warm. The location was ideal, with a friendly host and plenty of walks and cycle routes on the door step. Raby Castle and grounds were fascinating and only a couple of miles up the road. We thoroughly enjoyed returning, setting up the hot tub and then soaking away the aches and pains from the day’s activities, whilst star gazing! We would certainly come back for another stay!

    Thank you so much for the lovely feedback and we are so pleased that you will come back to stay with us and we are also pleased that you found time in your active week to relax in the hot tub and take in the dark skies. Thank you again and look forward to see you in the future. Property Owner

About the location

STAINDROP

Barnard Castle 5 miles; Durham 20 miles.

The pretty Teesdale village of Staindrop has always been closely associated with the fortunes of nearby Raby Castle and its owners. The Castle (open to the public) is one of the grandest in England. Enlarged and beautified over the centuries, the medieval heart remains and a walled garden and 200-acre deer park add to the splendour. Staindrop has a well-stocked general store, a pub and a coffee shop, set around the village green. The popular market town of Barnard Castle is 5 miles away, with its castle, the Bowes Museum, plus of course its wide range of shops and tea rooms. Walkers will enjoy the many walks around Teesdale.
