    “We loved our stay at Foxes Den - the lodge itself is very high end with everything you need for an easy stay and it felt surprisingly big!”

    We loved the log fired hot tub and the gas fired burner indoors…all very atmospheric and easy to use. The farm itself is immaculate with easy parking and beautiful walks from your front door. It is also a great part of England to explore both in terms of history with places like Barnard and Raby Castle and the Bowes Museum and with walks like Low Force in Teesdale. Thank you to our great hosts Steven and Mary. We highly recommend it and will be back for sure!

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.

This property offers the following short breaks:

  • Winter
  • Off-season
