Take one lucky pup to this stylish property just outside the village of Lamesley, which is ideal for couples, friends or families looking for a restful holiday. The cottage is in a secluded position within the grounds of the owner’s property. There is easy access to Newcastle-upon-Tyne (6 miles) and Northumberland’s stunning heritage coastline is within 20 miles. A great local attraction for all ages is the Beamish Living Museum of the North (5 miles), where your hound can sniff out some historical adventures.
This sleek, contemporary cottage, set over two levels, is light and spacious, with an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, perfect for socialising. Downstairs, you’ll find a lounge with ample comfortable seating to enjoy watching the TV or relaxing with a coffee. Four paws will find plenty of spots for a snooze. The kitchen has all the appliances to cook, and you can eat and plan adventures around the charming dining table. There is a shower room and a double bedroom on the ground floor. Head upstairs via an open-tread staircase to the mezzanine-level double bedroom overlooking complete with a TV. There is a second bathroom on the first floor. Outside, the garden lawn and patio areas surrounding the cottage offer breathtaking views over the Northumberland hills. Unwind under the gazebo and fire up the BBQ for al fresco dining.

Newcastle-upon-Tyne (6 miles) has plenty of options to set tails wagging, including a walk down by the quayside, dog-friendly eateries and a walk at the tranquil Leazes Park. If four paws prefer leaving no stick unfetched, head to Chopwell Woodland Park (9.5 miles) and follow one of the many trails. History abounds in this area, and the World Heritage Site and Roman fort at Arbeia (12 miles) welcomes your four-legged friend.
