Description

Powburn 1.1 miles.

Enjoying a superb rural setting in the idyllic hamlet of Branton near Powburn in Northumberland, Swallow Cottage is a traditional stone cottage, perfect for a couple on holiday.

The accommodation is beautifully rustic and is in the ideal spot for those who love the countryside.

The charming living space is suitably warm and welcoming with a seating area arranged around a woodburning stove where you can imagine curling up together in the cooler months.

The kitchen is fully fitted with everything needed to create delicious meals for that special someone and when it’s time to serve up, there is an elegant dining area just perfect for long, leisurely meals for two.

If the sun is shining, then make the most of it by sitting on the bench in the courtyard to soak up the rays or go for a stroll in the delightful communal gardens.

The bedroom is really inviting and a wonderful place to lay your weary heads after a day of getting out and about exploring.

The peace and quiet of the tranquil setting add up to help create a truly restful rural break.

You are in the best spot for discovering the delights of the area with glorious countryside and rolling hills on the doorstep just waiting for you to take a hike.

The village of Powburn is nearby and has a good selection of amenities with the market town of Alnwick also close.

Here you will find an imposing castle (known to millions as Hogwarts School in Harry Potter!), the impressive castle gardens and The Treehouse Restaurant.

The spectacular coastline, the attractive towns of Wooler and Rothbury and the well-known National Trust country house and gardens at Cragside are all within easy reach.

For the ultimate rural retreat for two, Swallow Cottage is the perfect holiday destination.

Lovely cottage, wish I had that bed at home!

The cottage had everything we needed. Very quiet area.

We would have given 5 stars for everything but we found the shower extremely difficult to access.

It would have made a big difference if there had been a grab rail on the wall. The cottage was lovely and cosy with a very generous welcome pack and we would have recommended it apart from the shower
