We're delighted to share some exciting news about a new addition to our Luxury Lets North East portfolio: Church View!
Located in the charming village of Lanchester, this impressive three-bedroom holiday home is undergoing a full renovation and will soon be ready to welcome guests. With three bedrooms, the property will comfortably sleep six people, and we're pleased to confirm that it will also be dog-friendly.

Explore the Best of Durham
Church View is perfectly situated to explore the rich history and vibrant culture of County Durham. Just a short drive away is the historic city of Durham, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its magnificent Durham Cathedral. This breathtaking example of Norman architecture is a must-visit, with its serene atmosphere and fascinating history.
Beyond the cathedral, Durham offers a fantastic mix of old and new. You can get lost in the city's cobbled streets, exploring independent shops and the indoor market, or head to modern shopping centres like Prince Bishops Place and The Riverwalk. When the sun sets, the city comes alive with a bustling nightlife scene, from cosy traditional pubs and quirky cocktail bars to lively clubs, ensuring there’s something for every taste.

This peaceful path is a great way to explore the local area and its rich railway heritage.
