Description
Corner House is a lovely house positioned in Wark, Northumberland, offering an ideal base for couples and pairs seeking intimate countryside exploration. Two bedrooms—one king-size and one single—provide flexible sleeping arrangements, whilst a dedicated sitting room centred around a woodburning stove invites you to linger by flickering flames on cooler evenings. The shower room delivers practical efficiency with a walk-in shower, basin, and WC.
What sets Corner House apart is its prime village positioning: the shop and pub sit a mere stroll away, eliminating any need to venture far for provisions or a meal out. Central heating ensures year-round comfort, and roadside parking accommodates your vehicle with ease. The enclosed garden and patio, furnished and ready for use, become your own peaceful sanctuary—perfect for morning tea or evening contemplation as day fades over the Northumberland landscape.
Wark occupies a strategic pocket within one of England's most historically layered regions. Hexham, an elegant market town mere miles distant, showcases its magnificent medieval abbey and thriving independent retail scene, ideal for couples seeking cultural immersion and authentic shopping. The town's riverside setting and atmospheric streets reward unhurried exploration. Corbridge, equally accessible, presents Roman heritage at Corstopitum and its own charming market square lined with galleries, antique dealers, and cafés perfectly suited to browsing couples. For those drawn to landscape and legend, Hadrian's Wall stretches nearby—this UNESCO World Heritage monument offers trails ranging from gentle riverside walks to ambitious ridge hikes, each revealing stunning vistas across the Pennines.
Whether you arrive seeking history, countryside serenity, or simply a retreat where two can reconnect away from everyday noise, Corner House delivers authentic Northumbrian hospitality with genuine character and convenient access to the region's finest offerings.

Lovely homely house.
Beautifully presented. Well equipped and spotlessly clean. Modern bathroom and comfy bed. Wark is a friendly village with walks on the door step. Well stocked village shop and comuinity run pub . We had a maintenance issue which the owner resolved quickly. Nice area with plenty of places to visit. Small courtyard enclosed garden and on road parking. Enjoyed our stay.
A stunning house in a stunning location.
The house is beautifully furnished, very comfortable and well set out. It has a wonderful walk in shower. The small back patio area is lovely, our little shitzu spent most of his time outside!!!! It has a gate leading to a side road for easy parking! We stayed a week but could have stayed longer. The village of Wark is small but stunning, beautiful walks across the bridge, with amazing views. It has a One stop shop for essentials, an amazing Hotel, restaurant/bar, plus another pub straight across the road from the property. The locals very friendly and helpful. Its a great location for exploring the area. We loved Hexham with its Abby. Keilder water/forest is a must see. Corbridge is also amazing with its Roman fort/museum, although dogs not allowed in the museum! We even ventured to Whitley Bay, only 1 hour 10 mins away, with its beautiful long promenade. We would certainly stay in Wark at the Corner House again
Every now and then you stumble across an absolute gem.
In this case, for us, it was the Corner House in Wark, Northumberland. Freshly modernised and offering all the comforts needed, along with some very nice personal touches making it a “home from home” and a great base for visiting the numerous Northumberland attractions. Corner House is ideally located in Wark and is within a short stroll of the well-stocked Premier mini market, The welcoming Grey Bull community pub, the absolute delightful Café 1897, exquisite Battlesteads Restaurant and Pub and the highly entertaining Sky Observatory. Wark caters well for walkers and dog owners without the need for transport. Also, being so central there are many attractions within easy reach including Hadrian’s Wall, Bellingham, Northumberland National Park, Kielderhead, Scottish Borders, Hexham, Alnwick castle, Lindisfarne (Holy Island) and Bamburgh to name but a few. We absolutely enjoyed Corner House and look forward to returning shortly for another stay
