Property code: OC-GD1919

A charming stone barn conversion situated on a working farm 9 miles from the market town of Wooler. The barn is surrounded by dramatic tree-covered valleys and vast stretches of open moorland. It offers a single large bedroom, spacious lounge and two shower rooms, ideal for active couples eager to explore the Ingram Valley Northumberland National Park.

This rustic barn has lost none of its original charms, with exposed stone walls and wood beams on show throughout. The spacious lounge, complete with tiled floor and wood burner, is a comfortable refuge for guests made weary after a long day out, with a bright shaker-style kitchen opposite open for continuous refueling of plates and glasses. The barn’s lone yet highly versatile bedroom comprises a double bed, two single beds, and a bunk bed, ideal for groups with young children, but can be closed off via a sliding barn door to provide a cosier space for smaller groups. The bright shower room stands close by ready to refresh and invigorate tired limbs. The view of the countryside from the paved patio is best enjoyed with a fortifying drink and conversation full of ideas for the following day’s adventures.

The barn is surrounded by marked trails and paths that can take walkers in all directions across the Ingram Valley. Many of these enjoy far-reaching views of the Northumberland National Park and lead to historic sites including Threestoneburn Stone Circle (1 mile), which dates back to the Bronze Age. Market towns and villages such as Powburn (7 miles) and Wooler (9 miles) offer a dog-friendly welcome and further access to walking and cycling routes.

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing week at this secluded and charming cottage with our two dogs. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything you could need for a short stay. We look forward to our next visit!

Little Dod Barn is an excellent place to stay. The barn was warm and comfortable and in a lovely peaceful and remote location. Lovely walks directly from the property, so much so we looked forward to NOT going out every day.

Just back from our second visit this year, which tells you that we loved the property. It is remote but that suited us just fine. There are no amenities such as shops, pubs or eateries for miles so take that into consideration & go prepared.
