About this property
Teesdale holiday cottage, sleeps 4 + dog at Bank Top, Mickleton, Barnard Castle
- 3 Bank Top is a cosy Teesdale holiday cottage for four plus one well-behaved dog in Mickleton, near Barnard Castle, with two great country pubs on the doorstep.
Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen that includes microwave, slow cooker, four-seater table, dishwasher, and coffee machine.
You’ll also find oil-fired central heating, a washer-dryer, fridge-freezer, and all bedding and towels included.
In the living room, toast your toes around the woodburner and tap into the free Netflix and superfast WiFi. Or dive into the DVD collection. And bring your sun cream for the south-facing, fully enclosed garden.
After a hearty day’s hiking, soak your tired legs in the freestanding bathtub. Then retire to the main bedroom, a king-size with dressing table, hairdryer and Alexa, and bedroom two, with two singles, plenty of space, and a view over the hills.
Teesdale
Teesdale on the outskirts of the Yorkshire Dales, is a walker’s paradise. Discover High Force, England’s highest waterfall, trek the disused railway track to delightful Romaldkirk, or climb to iconic Kirkcarrion, with its Bronze Age burial chamber.
And if you love ancient market towns, you’ll want to potter around Barnard Castle and Middleton-in-Teesdale.

Quite & Relaxing
Had a lovely long weekend at Bank Top in Mickleton. Very relaxing and peaceful. Yhe cottage was perfect and very comfortable with all we needed. The weather wasnt great but it didnt dampen our experience.
The Sunday Roast at the CROWN which is 100yds away was outstanding.
Great time and our dog, Poppy loved it too.
Many thanks.

Fantastic Cottage, great location
The cottage was fantastic and exceeded expectations. The location was great, a few yards from great pubs and lots of walks. It had great outdoor space as well as indoor space. I would highly recommend.

Home from home.
From walking in the front door it was like walking into your own home, very cosy, exceptionally clean., comfy beds, and the log burner was the icing on the cake. So many little touches providing the little things you might have forgotton to bring. A lovely welcome pack and some doggie treats too. Just loveky. No complaints whatsoever.
