Freville Cottage

Freville Cottage is a two-bedroom terraced house in Shildon, positioned for exploring County Durham's attractions. The National Railway Museum is 2.5 miles away, and Bishop Auckland—known as the Gateway to Weardale—lies similarly close, offering riverside walks, shops, restaurants and the grounds of Auckland Castle. The Bowes Museum and Witham theatre are at Barnard Castle, while Saxon churches and Durham's World Heritage sites are within reach for a day out.

The cottage has a double bed in one bedroom and two single beds in the other, sleeping four, with a bathroom combining bath and shower. Downstairs holds a living and dining room with a sofa bed, plus a separate kitchen equipped for cooking and a utility room with a washing machine. One parking space is on the road; an enclosed yard is also available. Wi-Fi, bed linen and towels are provided, along with heating and electricity. A welcome pack awaits arrival.

The property suits groups wanting to base themselves for exploring, with walking and cycling routes starting from nearby Bishop Auckland. One dog is welcome at no extra cost. No smoking indoors. Check-in is after 15:00 and checkout before 10:00.
