The location...

Situated only two miles from the A68 trunk route to Scotland, and less than 30 minutes from the A1 motorway at Darlington, the charming village of Hamsterley is surrounded by beautiful farmland and woods, and only a short distance away from the dramatic winter landscapes of the Northern Pennines.

Hamsterley Cottage is in the middle of Roslyn Terrace, distinguished by its bright red door, making it easy to spot as you drive into the village, with its stone built cottages, duck pond and mediaeval church of St James.
