Castleside is a small base, with five places and very little variation between them. Nearly all are two-bedroom lodges for four people, and the usual nightly prices cluster closely together. The cheapest night is only slightly under the typical one, so hunting for a bargain gains you little here. The one place with extra facilities costs a bit more than the rest. If you want more choice or a lower starting price, the neighbouring towns listed further down have more places to compare.

Castleside sits on the edge of the North Pennines in County Durham, and the lodges here suit couples, small families or two friends travelling with a dog. Every place we track has a hot tub and a garden, and every one accepts pets. That makes the choice simple if those are your starting points.
The stays are all of a similar size. Each sleeps three or four people and has two bedrooms, so there is no larger group option in the village itself. Prices sit in a narrow band, with the cheapest night only a little below the usual one. Guest ratings are very high, close to the top of the scale. Extras are less common: a sauna and a log burner appear at only one place, and that place is the dearest of the five. Winter and the rest of the year cost similar amounts for a full week, so timing matters less than you might expect.
A hot tub and a garden come with every place, so neither will help you tell them apart. A barbecue is included at four of the five, and three have a high chair, which matters if you are bringing a toddler. Only one place has a sauna and a log burner, and it is also the dearest. Places with a barbecue are usually a little cheaper than the village as a whole. If a wood fire matters for a winter stay, you have just one option, so check its dates early.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot tub | 5 | 100% | £219 |
| Garden | 5 | 100% | £219 |
| BBQ | 4 | 80% | £209 |
| High chair | 3 | 60% | £219 |
| Sauna | 1 | 20% | £231 |

All five places fall into one group, sleeping three to four people in two bedrooms. Split between four guests, the usual cost works out at a moderate amount each per night, which is reasonable for a stay with a private hot tub. Two people will pay the same nightly rate but have more space than they need. If your group is larger than four, Castleside will not fit you, and you would need to look at nearby towns with bigger lodges or book two places.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 3-4 | 5 | 2 | £219 | £55 |
Prices are lowest in November and December, and December is the cheapest month shown. From January to March the usual night is noticeably higher and stays flat across those three months. April is the dearest month in the list. Availability follows the same pattern: late autumn and December have fewer free nights left, while January to March has plenty of open dates. That makes early the new year a good time for a last-minute booking, though you pay a little more per night than in December.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £219 | 36% |
| December 2026 | £217 | 47% |
| January 2027 | £238 | 78% |
| February 2027 | £238 | 80% |
| March 2027 | £238 | 80% |
| April 2027 | £250 | 70% |
Several larger towns sit close by and give you more to compare. Durham has the most places by some distance and the lowest starting price in the group. Bishop Auckland also has a wide choice and a low starting price. Consett and Slaley sit in between on price, while Lanchester and Wolsingham start higher, with Wolsingham the dearest. If Castleside has no free dates, these towns are the obvious next step, and many will cost less per night than Castleside.
