A homely cottage in a picturesque village on the edge of Northumberland National Park and within 1.5 miles of the Simonside Hills and Cragside House & Gardens. With its spacious lounge, stylish kitchen and an enclosed patio garden, the dog-friendly cottage is perfect for active families or large groups keen to explore the rich array of attractions across this diverse landscape.
The two-storey cottage stands off a narrow street in the centre of Rothbury and is surrounded by period cottages of a similar character. The cottage has a bright and characterful interior, with plenty of natural light pouring over its contemporary soft furnishings across both floors. The cosy lounge is a great place to curl up with the dogs, especially when they can snooze in front of the inglenook fireplace’s wood burner. The kitchen has plenty of space for foodies to experiment with local ingredients, with hearty meals served thereafter in the stylish dining room only a few paw prints beyond. The nearby utility room will be perfect for sorting out mucky pups. The first floor has baskets for every pack, it being home to an en-suite king-size bedroom, a bunk bedroom and a twin room, along with a family bathroom. French doors in the kitchen lead out to an attractive patio garden, a real sun trap that comes into its own on warm days and where dogs can laze while their humans take on refreshments.
The area around Rothbury is great for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers. Cragside House and Gardens (1.5 miles) is an oasis of calm and there are endless paths and trails to explore on the Simonside Hills and Northumberland National Park (both within 5 miles). The Northumberland Coast AONB (19 miles) is bursting with pretty market towns, beaches and castles, the vast majority of which welcome four-pawed patrons.
