The picturesque market town of Wolsingham sits at the entrance to Weardale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty nestled within the North Pennines. Boasting many period features and stone-built listed buildings, the town is a popular stop-off point for visitors at the base of the Weardale Valley. The town boasts a number of well-regarded pubs, cafes and restaurants as well as convenience shops and takeaways. It also has the Wolsingham Agricultural Show, held every year on the first weekend in September. Nearby is the village of Hamsterley which sits on the brow of a hill between Teesdale and Weardale, on the edge of the North Pennines. Boasting an old village pub, the village is just two miles from Hamsterley Forest, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which covers 2000 hectares of mixed woodland and has an abundance of wildlife.
