Charles Dickens was a guest in days gone by and based some of his writing on the local area. Another famous visitor was the artist William Turner, who painted some landscapes in the local area.
Now the building will give you a warm welcome whatever the reason for your visit and we can offer these facilities for your enjoyment:
Please pay us a visit and let us offer you some traditional Teesdale hospitality, whether it’s for a quiet cup of coffee, a pint or two of real ale or a home-cooked meal, a good night’s rest, or even to see one of our legendary ghosts! Whatever the reason for your visit, we will do our best to give you a warm welcome.
Accommodation
At our Inn, we have 12 newly refurbished rooms. Four are in the front of the main inn – two fantastic character doubles with en-suites and two smaller rooms (one double, one twin) which share the house bathroom. Across the cobbled courtyard, there are 6 more rooms in the converted stables (5 doubles and 1 twin, all with en-suite) plus two more rooms in the cottage (one double and one family room – both en-suite). We have five rooms which are dog friendly.
Breakfast is served in the Inn daily, freshly cooked to order from local produce, and evening meals are available in the Restaurant or in the Bar in front of the warm fire.
Afternoon Tea
Afternoon tea at our Inn will take you back in time as you are seated in our 17th-century building with old-fashioned cake stands, china cups and crisp white table linen. Once seated we let you peruse through our drinks menu which includes many teas, cafetière s of coffee, latte’s and also cold drinks if you prefer.
Served with your drinks we present you with a stand of delicious warm scones served with clotted cream, preserves and butter and also sandwiches and savouries.
Then to follow, there’s gorgeous homemade cakes just like Grandma used to make!
Business
Our Inn is an ideal venue for business with its location just off the A66. We’re easily accessible but rural and quiet so ideal for your business needs.
We have hosted a variety of business events, including private business lunches, training workshops, Christmas celebrations and many more. Being so close to the A66, we have many returning business travellers, who enjoy our warm and relaxing environment whilst they’re away from home.
Private Functions
Our Inn is available to hire for private functions and is ideal for family celebrations.
Food can be tailored to suit your taste and budget – you could even bring your own chef! Or maybe book the whole building for your special event, we have 12 comfortable guest rooms at your disposal.
Route 66
If you’re driving along the trans-Pennine route of the A66, why not slip off the main road for a well-earned break. We’re only a minute’s drive off the main road but we’re a world away from the traffic and we can revive you with a delicious home-cooked meal or you can put your feet up in front of a roaring log fire and enjoy a cup of Yorkshire tea or barista-style coffee.
Everyone is welcome and there’s something for everyone.
You may even decide to stay the night in one of our lovely rooms!
What to do
When you stay at our Inn there is plenty to explore in the beautiful, unspoiled area of Teesdale. The countryside is stunning – changing with the seasons and you can walk for miles and see nobody. The Pennine Way passes through Bowes so you can take in part of this historic route, exploring the ruined castle in the village or just soaking up the stunning views from the bench by the castle. A dream for photographers and artists!
Travelling just a bit further, the 3.5 miles into Barnard Castle, this historic quaint market town with its massive ruined castle is set alongside a fabulous bubbling river. It’s well worth taking some time to wander around the streets, enjoying the coffee shops and traditional old shops. If you have a whole day to spare you have to take in the Bowes Museum, which is a massive French Chateau packed full of amazing artifacts collected by the family over their travels.
Bowes is a village in County Durham, England. Located in the Pennine hills, it is situated close to Barnard Castle. It is built around the medieval Bowes Castle.
