Peek Inside this Magical Rustic Holiday Home in Northumberland
This converted barn set in a peaceful valley sleeps six guests
On the ground floor is an open-plan living space, full of rustic charm, with a wood burning stove. The living room also has a flat-screen Smart TV and large corner sofa, ideal for cosy nights in. The dining table overlooks the garden, and in the heart of the room, the kitchen houses a large island plus modern amenities. Exposed stone walls and vaulted ceilings throughout add to the tranquil retreat’s historical charm.
From the living space a private decked balcony can be accessed, complete with patio furniture and gorgeous views over the valley’s stream and mini waterfall.
A wrought-iron spiral staircase leads to the lower ground floor, where there are two spacious bedrooms with super king beds, which can be split into twins if needed. Also on this floor is the family bathroom with roll-top bath. On the first floor is a galleried living space which has another Smart TV and a sofa bed – a cot and highchair are available on request.
Outside, the back garden has a courtyard seating area, and is complete with fire pit and barbecue for outdoor drinking and dining. The grounds are gorgeous, with a total of 11 acres to explore, featuring a stream, meadow and walled garden and abundant wildlife. There is private parking for two cars, plus a bike store.
