Overview

Holiday Highlights

  • High Force – at 21m high probably the most spectacular waterfall in England.
  • Low Force - Its baby brother!
  • Cauldron Snout. Reputedly the longest waterfall in England.
  • Teesdale, magical scenery away from the Lake District crowds.
  • The Pennine Way! It passes close by the hotel. We will walk a few sections.

Nestled to the north of the Yorkshire Dales and with the Lake District gracing its western horizon, Upper Teesdale unveils breathtaking landscapes without the usual throngs of visitors. Middleton, a former Quaker mining town, serves as the ideal base for exploring this untouched gem. The town is cocooned by picturesque countryside and echoes of its mining heritage.

Four of our walks embark right from the doorstep of our hotel. Without the need to wait for buses, we have more time to relish the best of our walking excursions. One day, we'll arrange transport to Langdon Beck for a walk along the Pennine Way, leading to the awe-inspiring Cauldron Snout waterfall and the serene Cow Green Reservoir. A mid-week free day provides the perfect opportunity to rejuvenate your legs and explore the local surroundings. If you arrive via public transport, Barnard Castle is easily accessible by bus.

Our accommodation, the Teesdale Hotel, centrally located in Middleton, is a beloved haven for walkers. The hotel's bar pulsates with the vibrant heartbeat of the local community. Join us for an unforgettable adventure in the unspoiled beauty of Upper Teesdale.
