Indulge in a peaceful escape for two at this quaint studio apartment located 5.5 miles outside Hexham in the heart of the stunning North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Sleeping two people in one bedroom and welcoming two canine companions, this romantic retreat is perfect for couples who want to discover the untamed beauty of Northumberland with their faithful friends by their side. Take a stroll around the historic market town of Hexham – even the Old Gaol Museum is dog-friendly – and in the evening, come home to the cottage to snuggle with your special someone in front of the wood burner while your dogs snooze at your feet.

Step inside and take a moment to admire this spacious studio, which consists of a lounge/kitchen and bedroom. Featuring stone walls, high ceilings and exposed beams, you’re sure to feel right at home. Unleash your inner chef in a kitchen area, where you’ll find everything you need to cook up a romantic feast for two. After dinner, step outside and you’ll find two folding chairs. Pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the sun set and the stars come out. Alternatively, simply snuggle up in front of the wood burner while your dogs stretch out and snooze in the fire’s glow. When it’s time for bed, cuddle up in the studio’s bedroom.

Take your pups to Aydon Castle (10.5 miles), a beautiful manor house in the village of Corbridge. The walled orchard is a fabulous spot for a romantic picnic, and the surrounding woodlands are sure to make tails wag. Or head into Hexham (5.5 miles) and take your pups on a walk around the oldest surviving purpose-built prison: Hexham Old Gaol. You and your pups can even visit the dungeons.

Bothy quite stylish, spacious , reasonable provision of kitchen stuff etc for a studio. However, the stairs up to the door are very steep, the studio was cold on arrival, the woodburner made a bit of difference once it got goingbut in the morning the dated storage heaters were ineffectualso combined with lack of light made it quite miserable. No haRead moreirdryer. Not even a pint of milk provided. Certainly dont feel welcoming. Hide

Beautiful cottage - spent two nights here over a weekend and it was the perfect hideaway. very clean and cosy - was quite cold to begin with but soon warmed up- but would suggest bringing warmer indoor clothes in winter. Log burner was great and furnishings were of excellent quality. Lovely host thank you for the welcome . We will be back. CharlottRead moree & James Hide

A beautiful little hide away for two. We stayed with our 1 year old Samoyed who loved playing with the farm dogs, who were very excitable but friendly. Beautiful scenery and nicely located about 15 minute drive in to Hexham centre. The building is lovely and quirky. The floor is anything but level, which added to the charm. A full kitchen (no freezRead moreer), meant we were able to cook lots, including pancakes for breakfast. Would definitely recommend. Hide
