Glorious location for large family gatherings with two first-class adjoining barns on a relaxed farm, each offering space and facilities to also do your own thing. Great for families and friends.

If you are planning an extra-special staycation with all the family, then look no further than the stunning Northumberland countryside. Sleeping ten humans and two hounds, this superb property is ideal for large groups, providing the entire pack with oodles of home comforts including two kitchens, two lounge areas, and even access to on-site cookery and gardening courses. You’ll be able to explore your surroundings at leisure with Fido in tow, and the friendly owners can help you arrange catering to make any celebration a glamorous affair.

Step inside this former barn to discover a delightfully contemporary retreat with original timber beams and exposed stone walls. Laid out in a reverse-level style, the elegant bedrooms are tucked on the ground floor complete with polished concrete floors, underfloor heating, and their own gorgeous en-suite bathrooms or shower rooms. The downstairs is divided into two to allow for privacy, with two separate entrances, and two staircases leading upstairs to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Socialise in style on the first floor, letting sleeping dogs lie by the wood burner as you cook up a storm for family feasts, or settle down for film nights with wine and snacks. Outside, the original gin-gang area hosts a BBQ and garden furniture for al fresco dining, plus another patio area for quiet mornings admiring the views over coffee and pastries.

Grab Rex’s lead and stroll around the farm, greeting the resident animals as you explore. Learn about the surrounding areas fascinating history with a trip to Housesteads Roman Fort, 14.5 miles away, taking in the sights of Hadrian’s Wall and the Roman remains dotted throughout the site.
