Set on a working farm in a picturesque village along the Cumbria/Northumberland border, this cheerful property makes a fantastic holiday base for families, couples and friends exploring the North Pennines. Within easy reach of Hadrian’s Wall and the southern outskirts of the impressive Northumberland National Park, the stylishly updated former farm building has a cosy wood burner, exposed beams and vaulted ceilings, with access to a shared summer house, lawn and hot tub. Offering fresh, light-filled accommodation for up to six guests, this sympathetically updated hideaway is perfect for walkers, history buffs, cyclists and nature lovers discovering the area’s beautiful woodlands, ancient sites and picturesque villages.
The cottage features a delightful lounge with a wood burner and ample seating, making a perfect space to settle back in the evenings. Heading through this room, the bright, stylish kitchen/diner provides a warm and inviting space for cooking and sharing family feasts. The ground floor also has an invigorating bathroom and a cheery twin bedroom. Two en-suite bedrooms are on the first floor, each with high beamed ceilings: a king-size room and a super-king-size room with a Juliet balcony and picture window. To the front of the property, there’s an unenclosed patio with outdoor furniture, offering a relaxing spot for a drink in the evenings. Meanwhile, the back garden features another patio with furniture and steps leading up onto a lovely lawn. You will also have access to the site’s shared hot tub and summer house.
