Description
The Beeches is a comfortable detached bungalow situated in Weardale on a traditional hill farm with a herd of beef cattle and hardly fell sheep. The North Pennines region has been designated an area outstanding natural beauty and The Beeches is surrounded by open countryside packed with wildlife and superb scenery. There are many mapped walks straight from the door as well as horse riding nearby and many mountain bike tracks through the beautiful Hamsterley forest just 5 minutes by car. It is a short walk down to the river Wear where you can enjoy a picnic on the river bank or take advantage of the 1/4 mile of private stretch of fishing.
