Escape to the glorious North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for a break filled with fresh air, wandering and adventuring. Don’t forget your bag of treats and a lead as canine companions are welcomed at this humble abode. Settle down in this characterful barn conversion for cosy evenings relaxing and unwinding or utilise the communal spaces and raise a glass to lively evenings playing games, chattering and laughing. With plenty of stick chasing, fishing and sailing spots surrounding you, there will never be a dull moment as you ditch the everyday and switch into holiday mode.

Step inside this glorious barn conversion and feel right at home. Find a cosy little nook in the lounge and put your feet up as furry friends sprawl out beneath you; lose yourself in a TV series or close your eyes for a moment of peace and quiet. Feed hungry guests in the well-equipped kitchen and dine at the breakfast table as you savour each morsel. Should the sun shine and the air be warm, dine alfresco in the enclosed courtyard which is shared with the property next door. Climb stairs to the first floor for a bubbling soak in the bath before bed. The three bedrooms reside on this level too and are delightful spaces in which to rest heavy heads ready for dreaming. Rise and shine and freshen up with a quick shower before you plan the day's adventures.

An abundance of exciting walks lie near the barn - head out for a game of fetch and a sniff of new scents. To catch some trout or enjoy a walk which isn’t too strenuous but gets you moving, head 7 miles to Derwent Reservoir. For a taste of rural village life, travel 11 miles to Hexham and roam the quaint streets.

This cottage could be a bit of a squeeze for five adults but it is fine for three or four adults or a family of up to five. It is .very well equipped and comfortable. It is a bit out of the way and it takes about half an hour to get anywhere by car, except Blanchland itself which is worth a visit. Some may actually prefer a remote location and it sRead moreuited us fine. The bathroom facilities are quite flexible with one combined bathroom and toilet and a separate shower room and a downstairs toilet. Hide

Nice cottage in a lovely area. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. We did struggle with the door lock at first but soon got the hang of it. Unfortunately downstairs smelled very strongly of dog, which was somewhat understandable since this is a dog friendly property, but could have been better with air freshener and open windows. The showerRead more cubicle could also have been a little cleaner and benefited from a quick clean before use. Would recommend to people who want to holiday with dogs. Hide

Lovely barn conversion in an idyllic setting. The barn was very comfortable and welcoming and had everything we needed. The enclosed courtyard was ideal for our 2 dogs.

Lovely cottage in the middle of nowhere. Great for outdoorsy families. The cottage was very clean and had everything you could possibly need. I would recommend Hornbeam cottage to anyone who wants to just get away from the humdrum of everyday life. Met the host briefly and he couldnt have been more helpful! Great value for money too!
