For those wishing to make more than an overnight stay, the Bunkhouse is an ideal base from which to access a wide range of activities
and facilities in the surrounding area – golf; fishing;
Beamish Museum; shopping in Newcastle,
historic
Durham and Hexham and the
Metro Centre to name but a few.
Consett town centre is approximately a mile away and offers a choice of supermarkets, take-aways, fast food outlets, pubs and
nightclubs, and there is also a good range of friendly country pubs in the area, many of which also offer a decent menu for meals.
