IF the lure of the countryside beckons to you, and you’re finding that getting away for just a week or two every year is not enough, it might be worth considering investing in a holiday home.

Family-owned Hillcrest Park is developing a small, but exclusive, number of high-quality, holiday lodges at their site on the beautiful border between North Yorkshire and County Durham.

Already successfully renting out cottages, camping pods and touring pitches, owners Kate and Ed Nichols are branching out by building a small selection of bespoke, luxury lodges on long leases.

The lodges will be sited on good-sized plots, and interested buyers can choose either a single or a double unit. You can create your own individual home-from-home by selecting the layout from an array of different designs.

To give you an idea of what’s available, come along to the Open Day on August 24, and have a look at the Pathfinder Tuscany Lodge which is already sited on the park. The Lodge has a light and breezy ambience with a modern, but cosy feel throughout.

The living area boasts twin luxury sofas and a traditional-style electric stove, with a dining area featuring bright fabric chairs and a light oblong table ideal for entertaining family and friends. The bright, open-plan living area benefits from a large picture window and patio doors leading out onto private decking and far reaching views of beautiful Teesdale.

The kitchen is well-equipped with state-of-the art appliances, to make life as easy as possible. The bedrooms are fitted with stunning feature walls behind each bed and, of course, hosts all the practical furniture needed to offer superior comfort.

The views around the area are stunning, and the park is in the heart of some of the most beautiful countryside in the UK, with lots of lovely places to visit, within easy distance.

A small deposit will secure your lodge on your preferred plot, and it will be built to order, with full payment on completion.

This is a fantastic opportunity if you are thinking of downsizing and considering buying a holiday home.

There is a small shop on-site, and, in the summer, you can enjoy the delights of a pop-up café. With plenty of great places to eat nearby, and a number of dog-friendly, welcoming public houses, you’ll soon settle in - and wish you’d taken the step sooner!
