The two of us spent 4 nights here and used it for a base to explore the countryside, do some walks along Hadrians Wall, visit some castles and just generally enjoy Northumberland. It was great - no one within shouting distance except some cows that would wander by to check us out occasionally. A cozy inside, plenty of space and a spacious bathroom and well equipped kitchen (we cooked breakfast everyday and prepared dinner a couple of nights). Hexham is a 10-15 minute drive with big grocery stores and restaurants, and there are a few smaller shops and places to eat even closer. A gem of a place…
