With its log burning stove, fully equipped kitchen, and private courtyard, it's the perfect retreat. Enjoy starry-night skyscapes from the comfort of your double bed. Private parking ensures convenience, while shops, pubs, and eateries are easily accessible by car. The cottage serves as a great base for exploring Durham and Newcastle's cultural delights.
The space
The Cottage Overview
The Cottage is a detached accommodation perfect for two adults, featuring its own private parking and entrance. Enjoy a cosy seating area with beautiful views on sunny days. One dog is welcome for an additional one-off cleaning fee of £20, payable on departure.
Neighbourhood Highlights
If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat that’s still close to pubs, restaurants, and cultural attractions, this is the place for you. Leisure facilities, including a sauna, jacuzzi, pool, and gym, are a 10-minute walk or a 2-minute drive away. We offer WiFi, so you can enjoy your favourite streaming services like Netflix and YouTube.
We also have Quarry Barn, which is detached and has its own parking area. Both Quarry Barn and Quarry Cottage are located just inside Northumberland, making them ideal bases for exploring the area.
