Beyond the comforts of the barn, Satley is a peaceful village surrounded by open countryside, making it a haven for walkers and cyclists. Explore nearby trails such as the Waskerley Way and the Derwent Walk, which pass through some of County Durham’s most picturesque landscapes.

Historic Durham, with its UNESCO-listed cathedral and castle, lies just 20 minutes away. Wander the cobbled streets, explore independent shops and cafes, or take a scenic boat trip on the River Wear. For more market town charm, visit Barnard Castle with its antique shops and the renowned Bowes Museum, or head to Bishop Auckland to explore Auckland Castle and the Spanish Gallery.
The vibrant village of Lanchester is close by, offering great pubs, restaurants, and shops, while a trip further afield takes you to the bustling city of Newcastle or the tranquil coastlines of Seaham and Roker Beach. For family-friendly days out, Beamish Museum—an open-air living history experience—is a must, offering a fun and educational day for all ages.
