About Property

Discover the postcard perfect charm of Red Brick Barn, a beautiful detached holiday home nestled within 40 acres of the striking North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Rookhope, Co Durham. Whether you are seeking a tranquil getaway or a dog friendly adventure, this converted barn serves as the ideal base to forget the stresses of everyday life.

This character-packed property is configured with 2 bedrooms, 2 beds, and 2 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 4 guests. On the first floor, you will find two double ensuite bedrooms designed with bold colors; one features cheery buttercup yellow walls, while the other boasts deep purple soft furnishings and a striped carpet. Both rooms provide plush bedding and crisp white linens, and one bedroom can be configured as a twin if preferred. Each bedroom includes a modern en suite featuring a walk in shower, WC, and basin.

The ground floor is designed for comfort and socializing. The homely and snug living room features low ceilings, a warm color palette, a large corner sofa, and a log burner for cozy nights in (logs are provided). The space is completed with traditional touches like a wooden dresser and benches. Through the archway lies the bright and airy open plan kitchen diner, characterized by mint green tiles, wooden cabinets, and a Belfast sink. This social hub includes a round wooden table with four chairs and a highchair for little ones. A spacious WC is also located on the ground floor.

Outside, a gravelled area with outdoor furniture offers an added luxury, providing incredible panoramic views of the countryside. Guests can enjoy al fresco dining or relax by the outdoor fire, which allows the space to be enjoyed year-round.

Located in the quaint village of Rookhope, the property is surrounded by heather clad moorlands, sweeping dales, and winding rivers. The area is home to England's largest waterfall and some of the darkest skies in the country. Visitors can enjoy long quiet walks, energetic hikes, cycling, fresh water fishing, canoeing, sailing, or horse riding. For fans of the TV show Vera, the filming location of Blanchland is just ten minutes away. The barn is within walking distance of village amenities and roughly an hour's drive from Durham and Newcastle.
