Perfect for walkers and cyclists, the River Wear runs just 2 miles away and there are many riverside walks and cycle paths to explore and enjoy. Only a short distance from popular villages and towns including Wolsingham, Frosterley and Stanhope guests will be able to enjoy taking popular walks right through to the upper reaches of Weardale, which is rightly designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Perfect for active families and guests of all ages, Hamsterley Forest is only 6 miles away and is a delightful 2,000-hectare site of popular walking trails including the Gruffalo Trail, cycle trails and orienteering, as well as plenty of spots for the perfect picnic. Only 4 miles away guests will find Witton Castle in Witton-le-Wear, which offers fly fishing, a bird sanctuary, historic castle and beautiful grounds. This detached property is located just over 5 miles away from Bishop Auckland, which is home to the Kynren Eleven Arches Spectacular from July-September 2018 and really must be visited. This epic tale of England is set to be a historical extravaganza with a cast of over 1,000 people and set over 7½ acres of County Durham, and promises 14 action packed and movie-like performances of colossal and dazzling proportions. The show will incorporate a full size lake with pyrotechnics, stunning lighting and water effects. Also ideal for guests wanting to visit the cathedral city of Durham, White View Lodge is just under a 20-minute drive away.

Perfect as a holiday home for guests with friends and family based at Durham University, all of the main campuses can be reached within a 20-minute drive making White View Lodge a super property to book for guests wanting to enjoy a graduation ceremony, attend taster weeks and explore the campuses before the start of the university year, and a great location for celebrating a university reunion with friends old and new. A current World Heritage Site, Durham is home to many popular tourist attractions, which include the Lumiere Festival, jazz festival, book week, arts week, the theatre, castle and cathedral, as well as many designer boutiques and shops. White View Lodge occupies a generous corner plot on the outer edge of Crook with larger than average landscaped front garden set back from the road, and with parking for four cars. To the rear of the property sits a beautiful paved and gravelled patio, providing a superb private outside space for relaxing in the hot tub and enjoying a barbecue. The outside dining area is covered by a gazebo which can be used in all weather, as is the hot tub, perfect for a colder night with friends.
