Directions to Low Urpeth have changed!
20/07/2011The directions to Low Urpeth Farm have changed... no we have NOT moved ... but an extra roundabout has been added on the A693. We've updated our directions page and added a new map to include the new roundabout.
Full directions & new map can be found on our directions page:
http://www.lowurpeth.co.uk/directions.asp
Low Urpeth Farm Bed & Breakfast and Self Catering cottages are easily accessible from the A1M (between Newcastle and Durham), leaving A1M at Chester-le-Street, junction 63.
Follow signs for Beamish Museum (or Stanley) on the A693 (1.5 miles), at the 3rd roundabout turn right to Ouston.
Go through the village of Ouston passing the garage on your left. Take the 2nd exit at the roundabout (do not take 1st exit Urpeth sign) and then turn left at the bottom of the hill into 'Low Urpeth Farm'. The Farmhouse is at the top of the drive.
