Magnificent Teesdale and the North Pennines AONB

Many accolades have been bestowed upon teesdale over the years as it truly is a unique, exceptional and remarkable area.



The breath-taking spectacle of Cauldron Snout, England's largest cascade

It is located in the High Pennines and is one of the famous Durham Dales that comprise much of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Indeed the scenery and the landscape truly are outstanding. Visitors are amazed and uplifted by the immense natural beauty and the unspoilt character of the area.

Upper Teesdale presents the very best of the English countryside and wildscapes. Peacefully and serenely between purple, heather-clad moorlands that exude both beauty and a sense of calm.

This region has so much to offer. Obviously it is excellent walking country, the famous Pennine Way passing along it's heart - but there are a multitude of exceptional rambles of varying lengths that can be enjoyed by all ages and abilities.

Nearby attractions include High Force (England's largest waterfall), Low Force, Cauldron Snout (England's largest cascade), Raby Castle, Barnard Castle, Bowes Castle, Brough Castle, Egglestone Abbey, the Killhope Wheel Lead Mining Centre, the Otter Trust and the world famous Bowes Museum.
