Just north of the Northumberland National Park and 26 miles from the seaside village of Bamburgh, explore both coast and countryside whilst holidaying at this humble abode. Full of charm and rustic style, this cottage welcomes you back after long days exploring. Sleeping six guests over three rooms, the open fire is perfect for cosy evenings in (and is a real hit with dogs), whilst the beautiful garden and summerhouse cater for sundowner evenings.

Arrive at this home from home and settle in right away. The handy boot room is a great place to leave muddy shoes and towel down soggy fur after adventures before heading into the lounge to warm up. Throw a log on the open fire and sit awhile with a book and a cup of tea. If you’re the designated cook, find yourself in the bright kitchen/diner where there are all the appliances you need to serve up delicious flavours. Dine inside or descend a step to the patio and enjoy a sociable meal with a toast to the chef. One of three charming bedrooms can be found on the ground floor and sits opposite a family bathroom so you can freshen up with ease. The two remaining bedrooms can be found on the first floor in the eaves of the house (take care of sloping ceilings) and both are treated to en-suites. There is off-road parking for three cars.

Jump in the car and head 26 miles to the vibrant village of Bamburgh with its dog-friendly beach. Boasting terrific ocean views, both the castle and the golf course are well worth a trip before you settle down on the sand for a day by the sea. Brimming with spectacular landscapes and trails to explore, spend time roaming the Cheviot Hills. View the tumbling falls at Linhope Spout (27.5 miles), walk the Border Ridge and set off from Kirk Yetholm (4 miles), or travel 19.5 miles and summit the tallest point in the Northumberland National Park, The Cheviot, which stands at 815 metres with views reaching as far as the Lake District on a clear day.
