Enjoy a tranquil country escape at this stylish hideaway, surrounded by history and nature. Set on the grounds of the owners’ property yet enjoying its own privacy, it’s located in a small village between the North Pennines and the Northumberland National Park. Sleeping two guests and welcoming one canine companion, it’s ideal for couples, solo travellers and dog lovers seeking a romantic getaway or a tranquil break with scenic country walks on their doorstep.

The cottage exudes charm and comfort, with a welcoming conservatory doubling as an entranceway, perfect for storing muddy boots and relaxing with a cuppa while savouring rural views. Inside, exposed wooden beams and stone walls create a rustic yet elegant atmosphere, complemented by neutral tones and bright pops of colour. The heart of the home is a spacious lounge/diner with a large corner sofa, a warming wood burner and a Smart TV – all the ingredients for a relaxing night in. The kitchen is compact and narrow but has everything you need to cook up a storm, along with a handy utility room for added convenience. When night falls, get cosy under the covers of the plush king-size bed, before a refreshing shower in the en-suite prepares you for another day of adventure. Outside, there’s a lovely lawned garden, shared with the owners, along with a private patio for dining alfresco. Parking is available for one car on the shared driveway.

Located just 4 miles from Hadrian’s Wall, this cottage is ideal for history enthusiasts, who also have Lanercost Priory within 4.5 miles. Venture to Talkin Tarn Nature Reserve (8.5 miles) to explore ancient woodland, a glacial lake and superb nature. The market town of Brampton (7 miles) and the city of Carlisle (15 miles) offer a mix of excellent shopping and dining, and a wealth of cultural and historic attractions.
