Poppy Gardens in Catterick

Located adjacent to open countryside on the edge of Brough with St Giles, this attractive new neighbourhood of energy efficient two, three and four bedroom homes has a peaceful, welcoming ambience.

Less than a mile from the A1(M), Poppy Gardens is within half an hour’s drive of Barnard Castle and Darlington. Durham and Middlesbrough can be reached in around 35 minutes, and Newcastle upon Tyne and Leeds are around an hour’s drive away.

A half-hourly bus service runs from Colburn to Darlington, taking just over half an hour to reach Richmond and 70 minutes to arrive in Darlington. A few services carry on to Catterick Racecourse, passing the development.

Five minutes’ walk from Poppy Gardens there is a large Lidl supermarket. The Broadway shopping precinct, half a mile away, includes a pharmacy, a Co-op, a post office, hairdressers, a takeaway and a library. Tesco, Aldi and Iceland supermarkets, as well as sports and fashion outlets, can be found in and around Princes Gate Shopping Centre, two miles away.

Nearby Richmond is a picturesque, historic market town where the wide selection of shops, cafés and pubs, from high street chains and supermarkets to a Victorian market hall, are set around a beautiful, cobbled Market Place in the shadow of the ancient castle.

The area offers an eclectic choice of leisure activities, ranging from fine dining and race days at Catterick Racecourse to angling at Catterick Fishing Complex on the River Swale or football training at Colburn Community Sports Centre. Catterick Leisure Centre, next to Princes Gate, has a well-equipped gym and three swimming pools, and Catterick Golf Club is approximately two and a half miles away.

Richmond’s attractions include drama, music and comedy at the Georgian Theatre Royal, and The Station Arts Complex, where the old railway building has been transformed into a creative hub with a three-screen cinema, café bar and galleries with changing exhibitions.

There are also opportunities for walking and cycling around the superb parks and natural surroundings, including rambling through nearby Colburn Beck Wood or along the River Swale, or exploring the vast Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Colburn Community Primary School and a day nursery, Banana Moon, are both just fifteen minutes’ walk from Poppy Gardens, and Risedale School in Hipswell, the high school that serves Brough with St Giles, is less than two miles away.

Colburn Medical Practice, located across the road from the Broadway shops, is a full time GP practice with full nursing support, and there is a dental surgery, Alpha Dental, a mile and a half away on the eastern edge of Catterick Garrison.
