The Covey at Rest at the Nest

About

Relax, unwind, and allow yourself to be enveloped in nature at The Nest, an extraordinary retreat carefully hidden on the rustic banks of the historic Hurworth Burn Reservoir.

The Covey
Our spacious 5 bedroom family home with extensive grounds is perfect for children or dogs to run around and burn off energy whilst you relax in the hot tub or the hammock and enjoy the view. 

Furnished with everything you need for that special get-together. Our property boasts a large kitchen/diner and lounge with panoramic picture window and wood burning stove. The five bedrooms consist of a Super King Master bedroom with walk in dressing area and ensuite bathroom with shower, bath, wc and basin. There are four remaining bedrooms comprising two double rooms and two twin rooms (one with zip and link to convert to super king) with a family bathroom, again with large shower, D shaped bath, wc and basin. There is an option to cater for 12 with a sofa bed in the snug.

Out and About
If after relaxing and enjoying the view you fancy a little explore we are just 20 minutes from Durham.  Bill Bryson called it ‘a perfect little city’, The Independent named it as one of the best cities in the world to visit in 2020, and Condé Nast’s Traveller magazine readers voted it the ‘Best city in the UK’ 

Explore the timeless quality of Durham, a quintessential old English University City, take some time out with a relaxing riverside walk or river cruise, or soak up the atmosphere with superb cafés, artisan workshops, boutiques, galleries and museums.

Or if you fancy somewhere a little closer to home, just a short drive away is the pretty market town of Sedgefield with an fine array of pubs/restaurants, coffee shops, and interesting boutiques.

Alternatively with direct access from your doorstep you can enjoy the Castle Eden Walkway, which runs alongside the reservoir, and the abundance of wildlife it has to offer. Enjoy a cycle or walk along this disused railway line which runs along the National Cycle Network Route 1, to either Castle Eden or Wynyard Woodland Park.

There is so much to see and do in County Durham with great transport links to access all the famous landmarks and landscapes, with plenty of hidden gems to be discovered!
