A couple’s retreat, part of a small complex on a working farm, this converted building is perfect as a bolthole for active holidays walking Hadrian’s Wall or just exploring this beautiful countryside and nearby North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. And as we know how much people love their dogs, up to two four-legged chums are on the guest list, too! Relish the peace and quiet of this natural setting with fantastic walkies opportunities in this unspoilt landscape. Enjoy spending time all together in the fully enclosed garden watching the clouds by day and the stars by night.

This cosy stone cottage offers comfortable accommodation on one level. Beautifully kitted out, it offers practical open-plan living areas with plenty of scope for time alone too. The stylish lounge/kitchen/diner offers a well-equipped, modern kitchen and your very own table for two, with plenty of room for two furry friends to snooze on the practical wooden floor. There’s a choice of soft seating in front of the TV and snuggly wood burner. Or open the French doors to the patio in warmer weather. An elegant king-size bedroom awaits at day’s end. Guests benefit from a private garden with both a patio and a large lawned area. It’s fully fenced, so let the dogs go mutts! There’s also access to a shared hot tub on-site by arrangement.

Enjoy canine capers walking through Miltonrigg Wood (2 miles). Visit the former Roman military base at Birdoswald Roman Fort (8 miles) which offers a visitor centre and the longest surviving stretch of the original Hadrian’s Wall. Stock up on supplies in the vibrant market town of Brampton (2 miles). The historic cathedral city of Carlisle (12.5 miles) offers more options.

A very comfortable cottage for 2 people ( and dog) in a great location. Really good for exploring the border country. Very quiet.
