Low Shipley Mill

Perched in Marwood near Barnard Castle, Durham, is this superb stone-built, semi-detached barn conversion, Low Shipley Mill. Enjoying a fantastic location surrounded by rolling countryside with views of the Dales, and an interior boasting a wealth of character features, including exposed beams, Low Shipley Mill is a truly exceptional pet-friendly dwelling for a group or family of eight.

Upon arrival, you will find an enclosed courtyard with dining furniture featuring a table made from the old water mill, along with a bubbling hot tub where you can sit back and soak up the gorgeous Dale views.

Kick-back and relax in the stylish sitting room, with Smart TV with Freeview, plush seating, woodburning stove, and a glass window providing an amazing outlook on the original working, colour-changing water mill below! If you fancy watching something different, there is also an inviting snug to retire to.

On the first floor, you can freshen up in the well-appointed bathroom, before retiring to one of four beautifully decorated bedrooms, two king-size with their own en-suite shower room, a twin and a bunk, all with Smart TVs with Freeview. For your local amenities, head over to the historic town of Barnard Castle, where you can stock up on essentials at the well-stocked convenience store, or tuck-in to a tasty meal at The Old Well Inn.
