Property code: OC-NB500

Part of a group of seven stone cottages which once played a key role on this working farm, the property has been carefully restored to offer a small family a secluded base for an active holiday in and around the North Pennines, where wild fells abound. Explore the footpaths and bridleways at Gelt Woods and Talkin Tarn Country Park (3 miles) before a picnic, or take lunch while shopping in the market town of Brampton (2 miles). History lovers will be in their element at Hadrian's Wall, while the nature reserve at Geltsdale (5.5 miles) will be hit with ornithologists.

Inside, the open-plan living area comprises inviting seating arranged around a wood burner and TV, with a dining table and a small kitchen area close by. It’s a relaxing space, perfect for lazy evenings in together. When the day is done, there are two bedrooms - a king-size room and a twin room - along with a family bathroom. Most rooms have original exposed beamed ceilings, adding a cosy ambience.

The outside space, accessed via the kitchen, comprises a private decked area with garden furniture, along with a shared lawn, hot tub and summerhouse which are the perfect places to escape to or swap holiday notes with other guests.

Lovely cottage, nice lounge, kitchen/ diner. Bonus to have dishwasher as well as washing machine. Large double room with great storage makes up for lack of storage in twin room. Comfy beds. Excellent location, we travelled easily to Lakes and Alnwick. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The Byre is a spacious bungalow with all the required facilities to enjoy a holiday. Access from the parking area is 3 steps to a gravelled path then 5 steps to the front patio area about 20 metres. My wife and I are reasonably fit octogenarians and only suffered breathlessness after unloading our belongings, anyone with mobility problems may strugRead moregle somewhat. Hide

The Byre provided us with our main needs during a relatively short (4 nights) stay, the location was perfect for the section of Hadrian's wall that we wanted to explore. Having an enclosed garden was ideal as we had a dog with us.

I booked this for my daughter and new husband's honeymoon break. The owners were very helpful when I asked about a few extras. The newlyweds thoroughly enjoyed their time there. Thank you.
