The Holiday Home: About Foxes Den

Cosy Romantic Pet-Friendly Holiday Lodge with Hot Tub on a Working Farm in the County Durham Countryside

For an intimate retreat away to County Durham, close to the border with Yorkshire, Foxes Den could be the perfect location for you to enjoy. This stylish holiday lodge is set on a peaceful working farm with ample unspoilt countryside, so everywhere you look you’re surrounded by the peaceful delights of rural living. There’s outdoor space for sunny days and plenty of cosy spaces indoors for a chilly morning – it could be the perfect escape!

Don’t forget to take advantage of the private outdoor hot tub – there’s no better way to complete an evening of self-pampering than a dip in the soothing, bubbly waters!

Up to 2 well behaved pet pooches are welcome by arrangement.


Inside this Idyllic Sleeps 2 Holiday Lodge in County Durham near Barnard Castle

Step inside the gorgeous interiors of Foxes den, complete with inviting wooden furnishings and plenty of cosy areas to curl up in and relax. Stretch out on the luxurious sofa in front of the smart TV and settle down for a cosy film night with the one you love. Or, enjoy a romantic meal for two at the dining table with a glass of wine.  On a sunny evening, you can even take your meal outside and gather around the outside furniture on the decking – it’s the perfect spot to watch the sky fill up with stars on a clear night.

The kitchen is conveniently placed behind the living area, making the most of its space and offering everything that you could need for a self-catered trip. There’s a hob, microwave, and a fridge/freezer, so you have plenty of equipment to rustle something up, whether that’s cooking a special something from scratch or making use of the convenient microwave.


Enjoy Relaxing in the Private Outdoor Hot Tub

When you’re looking to unwind in the evening, hop into the warm water of the hot tub – it’s the ideal place to have a pampering session and truly feel like you’re on holiday. After, head inside and curl up on the spacious king-sized double bed, tucked away in a private corner of Foxes Den and offering the perfect space for a dreamy night's sleep. You can wake up well-rested and head into the shower room with a cooling walk-in shower, basin, and WC.



Do a Spot of Fishing On Site

Barnard Castle

Choose Barnard Castle as the destination for your next cottage holiday and enjoy a stay in this fine historical riverside town, conveniently close to some of Northern England’s best natural beauty; with the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Yorkshire Dales National Park easily accessible close by.

When on holiday, don’t miss Barnard Castle’s fascinating castle ruins where you can enjoy wonderful river views and get a sense of this town’s rich history.

Bowes Museum which looks more like a French Chateau than a museum, is worth a visit for its wonderful exterior alone, as well as for the interesting collections that lie within.

For keen walkers and lovers of the great outdoors, the North Pennines AONB which is also a Global Geopark and a UNESCO site with its beautiful moorlands, peatlands, dales and rich wildlife is a fantastic area to discover.

More wonderful days out in the Yorkshire Dales National Park await where visitors can discover charming market towns and villages with stone-built cottages, tea shops and gift shops, awe-inspiring landscapes for walking or cycling, along with National Trust protected areas.

All in all, Barnard Castle has plenty to recommend it and could be a great place for a  self-catering holiday with friends or family. Whether you opt to stay in a holiday townhouse, a countryside cottage close to the town or a holiday lodge in a nearby holiday park, we trust that you’ll have a great time on a break in or close to historical Barnard Castle.
