Upon entering this single-storey abode, you will be met with the heart of the home, the open-plan living/dining room, where you can unwind in front of the Smart TV, warmed by the glow of the woodburning stove set within an exposed stone fireplace.

The galley kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to prepare delightful meals, enjoy some pancakes with gooey syrup at the breakfast bar or throw a log on the fire and serve your feasts at the dining table.

Where you’ll be staying

EGLINGHAM

Alnwick 7 miles.

The pretty village of Eglingham sits on a country road between Alnwick and Chillingham, and with its stone houses, lovely gardens, stream and wooded areas, it makes a lovely spot to visit. There is a fine Victorian church in the village, a large pub and also a good restaurant. The surroundings are ideal for those wishing to get away from it all – you may see the heron grace the Eglingham burn, or just relax and take in the views and incredibly wide skies of the area. Within easy reach are the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, the Farne Islands, the castles at Dunstanburgh, Warkworth, Chillingham and of course Alnwick, with its spectacular Garden next door.
