This two-storey cottage enjoys stunning views of the surrounding countryside from its enclosed garden, one of the many delights which will await an active family. Situated in a peaceful hamlet, it’s just 1.5 miles from Bamburgh which is home to a golf club, shops, pubs, restaurants, tea houses, cafes and a castle which towers over a vast sandy beach. For more history, head to the market town of Alnwick (16 miles) or, for something a little quieter, try Budle Bay bird sanctuary (1 mile).

The cottage has been finished to an incredibly high standard, meeting all the needs of a modern family. After entering the ground floor through a bright and spacious hallway, you will discover an open-plan living area comprising a sitting area with a wood burner and a kitchen/diner which stretches the whole length of the bungalow. Comfortable seating punctuates the slate flooring and the walls boast an array of colourful artworks. The whole area is bathed in natural light from large bi-fold doors leading to the garden. A lengthy en-suite super-king-size bedroom with TV and slate flooring enjoying garden views adjoins this area. Three further en-suite bedrooms - two super-kings and a king-size room - all featuring colourful prints can be found on the first floor.

Outside, relax in the enclosed garden’s private hot tub or on garden furniture scattered across the patio terrace, with views of the open countryside beyond. The Gathering Place, a detached farm building in the courtyard which is home to a range of games facilities and space for dinner parties of up to 24 guests, is also available to use. A tennis court and a grass paddock sit adjacent to this, perfect for a football match or running about with the dogs.

The Duchess was all we could ever ask for for a holiday cottage, clean, modern, spacious, comfy beds and the game changer which was having two, yes two dishwashers. We will definitely be back.

Communication with Original Cottages was very good. Cottage was beautiful and well located for our needs. We had a blissful week although realised that the adjoining cottage was empty for most of this so not sure what it would be like if people were outdoors partying! All in all a very special time
