With two charming en-suite bedrooms, this characterful cottage is the perfect destination for friends, couples or a small family to escape to the tranquil Cumbrian countryside. Surrounded by historic sites and idyllic landscapes, it has a private garden with a BBQ, and access to a riverbank for quiet evenings watching the sun set.
This inviting cottage blends traditional features such as exposed stone and wooden beams with a warm, relaxed atmosphere. It boasts an open-plan living space in which a wood-burner-effect electric fire in a stone inglenook adds a welcoming glow below a Smart TV. This sociable space is complemented by a well-designed kitchen that includes a fridge/freezer and a microwave, with a farmhouse-style dining table adjacent. On the first floor, two pretty bedrooms are tucked into the eaves (with some areas of low, sloping ceiling), decorated in soothing, pale colours and with skylights adding natural light. Each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom, one with a shower and the other with a shower over a bath. French doors lead out to a private, enclosed garden, furnished for outdoor dining. A short walk takes you to a delightful shared riverbank, where benches overlook the water. As an added bonus, you’ll have private parking for two cars.
Explore Hadrian’s Wall Country from your door, with the coast-to-coast Hadrian’s Wall Path just 1 mile away and the Roman Army Museum 7.5 miles away.
