The Area
Wolsingham is a thriving commuter market town situated
approximately 14 miles west of Durham, set within the heart of a
designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and is popularly
known as ?The Gateway to Weardale?. The settlement itself dates
back to the Saxon era and retains many points of historical
interest; the current town is predominantly situated within a
conservation area, with many period properties thus the traditional
charm is retained.
The village strikes an ideal balance between the desirable
life-style situation, benefiting from a tranquil, relaxed,
semi-rural location with numerous outdoor pursuits readily on hand
and the fantastic backdrop of the surrounding fells and moorland,
together with the accessible location meaning that the dynamic city
attractions of both Durham and Newcastle are within a short
travelling distance. International Airports at both Newcastle and
Durham Tees Valley offer both national and international travel and
are both accessible within one hour?s drive. Mainline railway links
are also available within the locality, meaning that the village is
ideally suited for the commuter. Those seeking the ideal balance
between trappings of modern life and the peaceful pace of the Dales
will find Wolsingham an ideal location to enjoy.
Wolsingham has a comprehensive range of day to day facilities
including a range of local shops, doctors and dental surgeries
together with restaurants, public houses and a gymnasium with
swimming pool. Mixed schooling is available at both primary and
secondary level; both schools are situated within a short walk of
the property.
