Binks cottage is set on a picturesque green in Thornley village, on a traditional working farm, situated on the edge of the north Pennines, in an area of outstanding natural beauty. This stone cottage was originally a shepherd's house, but has recently been furnished to a high standard to make your stay comfortable.

We are ideally located for walking, pony trekking, fishing and golf. Beamish museum, Kilhope lead mine, high force, Durham city and Raby castle are less than half an hours drive away. Within easy reach are the lovely market towns of Barnard castle and Hexham and further afield is the beautiful coastline of Northumbria. The Lake District, Keilder water and the Yorkshire dales are within comfortable traveling distance.

The cottage has been restored to a high standard with original beams and inglenook fireplace.
