Location

Teesdale is an area of outstanding natural beauty, and is home to England’s highest waterfall, wooded valleys, open moorland, historic towns, picturesque villages and sandstone farmhouses. It’s described as the northernmost of the Yorkshire Dales.

The market town of Barnard Castle takes its name from the Norman stronghold around which it was built. It’s a maze of cobbled streets and winding lanes with elegant Georgian and Victorian architecture.
