This unique property is perfectly positioned in Low Etherley, a semi-rural village in County Durham, three miles west of Bishop Auckland.

Etherley Lodge was built in circa 1820 as a home for Henry Stobart who, together with his family, owned several collieries in the local area and used his wealth to build a nearby hospital for injured soldiers. At the time of construction, the Lodge included several cottages for the mine workers, a mining office, an icehouse (which remains today), as well as extensive water gardens. The house was extensively extended in circa 1912 and again in circa 1986, when it was used as a nursing home.
