Mill Cottage

This converted barn lies in open countryside between the Yorkshire Dales and County Durham, within reach of Richmond and Barnard Castle. Everything is on the ground floor: an open-plan living space with a wood-burning stove and original A-frame beams, a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and washer-dryer, and a bedroom with a zip-and-link super king bed that can be split into singles. The bathroom has a double-ended bath with shower over. Outside, a private enclosed garden has garden furniture and a hot tub.

Mill Cottage is yours alone—no shared spaces. The essentials are covered: heating, electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels are all included. There is parking for two cars and a bike store. The property is non-smoking. A pond sits within the grounds, 55 yards from the cottage.
