For those of you with a dog the recently planted Teesdale Heritage Wood is growing well and is a pleasurable place to walk. This is a community woodland project, sponsored by the Forestry Commission and consists of 8 acres of native hard wood trees. The woodland walks are free and open to the public to explore at any time and are dog friendly! On a fine day you can see right up Teesdale.  The walk meanders through the paddocks now housing the animals from the park, donkeys, ponies and  llamas, so why not go for a walk and enjoy the scenery and the animals, it is all free access.

Make Thorpe Farm your stop on the A66 for fresh food, fresh coffee, fresh ideas and fresh clean air!
