When choosing a new home, we understand that its location is just as important as the house itself. 

And at our upcoming development Beauford Park in Witton Gilbert, you'll get all the benefits of village life whilst being just four miles from bustling Durham City and within easy reach of the region's other major towns and cities.

From a range of delicious local eateries and leisure activities on the doorstep, to an enviable location close to both picturesque countryside and the hustle and bustle of the city, there are lots of reasons you'll love living at Beauford Park.

1. Just Four Miles Away From Durham City

Living at Beauford Park in sought-after Witton Gilbert, you'll be just four miles from Durham City Centre. This beautiful, historic city has so much to do, whether it's dog walks along the river banks, or a night at the cinema and a restaurant at the lively Riverwalk.

2. Delicious Eateries on the Doorstep

When it comes to going for a bite to eat, you're spoiled for choice in Witton Gilbert and its surrounding areas. Traditional pub The Traveller's Rest is right on your doorstep, serving a fantastic selection of food and drinks. Or you could go slightly further afield to the likes of Rio Brazilian Steakhouse or The Rabbit Hole in Durham City Centre – there's something for everyone.

3. A Range of Excellent Leisure Activities Close By 

Luxurious Ramside Hall is just a 15 minute drive away from Beauford Park, boasting an indulgent spa with one of the largest hydrotherapy pools in the country as well as a fantastic golf course. For lovers of the outdoors and those looking for the perfect dog walking areas, Hardwick Park is one of the best country parks in the region and is an under 30 minute drive away.

4. An Excellent Location with Fantastic Transport Links

Whilst the somewhat seclusion of village life is desirable, we appreciate that access to larger cities is important. At Beauford Park, you get the best of both worlds. Durham train station is a mere 10 minute drive from the development, and you can drive to Newcastle City Centre in just 30 minutes or Newcastle Airport in under 45 minutes.
