Why Stay with Teesdale Cheesemakers

Stunning Views

Sit on the veranda and enjoy stunning views, stroll through the woods, take a picnic to enjoy by the river, or pop into our café for lunch or a late afternoon meat and cheese platter (described as 'Epic'), with a glass of wine.

Agricultural Setting

Our glamping huts are a shepherds hut with the curve of an agricultural building, so they have a higher ceiling than a traditional shepherds hut.

Off-grid Huts

The glamping huts are off-grid so amenities are limited but we do offer en-suite facilities, a phone charging point, tea and coffee making facilities, a small fridge and an equipped kitchen for basic cooking.

Bed linen & Towels

Bed linen and towels are provided. The pillows and duvets are supplied by Urban Wool. They are chemical-free, organic wool which are naturally hypoallergenic. The perfect start for a relaxing stress free night.

Bed & Breakfast

The glamping experience has a small kitchen so cooking is available but if you don't feel like cooking the cafe is open most days of the week.

Bed & Breakfast

Our breakfast sausage and bacon is from our own rare breed pigs reared here on the farm, along with eggs from our chickens and local bread. It you opt for a more continental cheese breakfast all the cheese is made here on site using milk from the family farm 6 miles away and is served with local bread, chutneys and butter.

We even have locally roasted coffee which we think it's fantastic!
We welcome dogs. They must be booked in at time of booking.
We are a quiet couples only site and do not allow large parties or children.

Undisturbed Tranquility

Whilst the café has disabled parking, disabled access and a disabled toilet, the glamping site is only suitable for the agile as it is a rural setting and your hut is a walk over the field from the car park.

To maintain the tranquility we do not allow children. Thank you for your understanding.

What our customers say

Stayed the weekend in the glamping hut. Really comfy, well kept, amazing view of the valley from the porch. So peaceful and relaxing. Selection of cheeses was really tasty, with an interesting selection. Nanny blue in particular. Cheese toasties with thier own cheese and own bacon is a great breakfast. Allison and Jonathan were lovely hosts, so accommodating. If you're looking to get out of the city for a relaxing time in nature and love cheese this is the place.
