About this property
Swallows Nest - Barnard Castle
Nestled just outside Barnard Castle, the quaint village of Wycliffe offers a serene escape in the heart of the countryside. A charming walk down to the River Tees is perfect for a peaceful stroll with your loved one, and there are plenty of picturesque spots to enjoy a picnic by the water's edge. Nearby, visitors can explore the historic market town of Richmond, with its impressive castle and scenic River Swale walks. For local produce, visit the farm shops offering fresh goods, or take a trip to Barnard Castle’s antique shops and cafes. Wycliffe is also a gateway to the stunning Yorkshire Dales, where miles of rolling hills, valleys, and walking trails await. Whether you're seeking history, nature, or local flavour, Wycliffe and its surroundings provide the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.
Step up into this newly renovated stone barn conversion, a perfect bolthole for two. The charming decor is entirely bespoke, featuring gorgeous fabrics that add warmth and character to every corner. The open-plan living space, with its high-pitched ceiling, is flooded with natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere. Wine, dine, and relax in this thoughtfully designed area, complete with a fully equipped kitchen where you can prepare romantic meals. Enjoy dinner at the cozy dining table before snuggling up on the large, comfortable sofa. Stream a film on the Smart TV or play soft background music to set the mood. As night falls, retreat to the serene bedroom, where a stunning plush headboard and deep, comfortable mattress ensure a restful sleep. The en-suite bathroom offers the choice of a relaxing bath or a refreshing shower.
Step outside to your private courtyard, overlooking peaceful pastureland leading to the River Tees, a perfect spot for morning coffee or alfresco dining.
