Shepherd's Cottage
A delightful detached cottage skilfully converted from an old stone barn and set in the corner of a beautiful sheep grazing/summer hayfield. The ideal situation for access to the River Tees via a short walk through our own private fields, then over a style to join the Pennine Way. Turn right for about 3 miles mainly by the river into Middleton-in-Teesdale, or alternatively turn left to Low Force, for about a 1 mile, then to High Force and beyond. There are several round walks including crossing the Tees at Wynch Bridge, or sooner at Scoberry Bridge.
Shepherd's Cottage provides "upside down" accomodation to give the best views of the beautiful surrounding countryside in this special part of Upper Teesdale.
