Make memories with your loved ones in this characterful, stylish apartment set within a 19th-century former gatehouse and county gaol in the beautiful market town of Morpeth. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, this is perfect for small families or groups of friends who want to reconnect in a historic home on the beautiful Northumberland coast. During the day, sit back and relax at Newbiggin-by-the-Sea or go for a scenic walk at Morpeth Castle. Return to the apartment’s chic living area to stretch out in front of the TV or have some fun playing board games with your nearest and dearest.
Access to this beautiful top-floor apartment is via a stairway or a lift. Step inside and you’ll discover a wonderfully light, bright, open-plan living/dining area. Settle onto a sofa and take a moment to make yourself at home while admiring the gothic-style window. Head to the chic, contemporary kitchen area to whip up some dinner for your loved ones, then enjoy your meal together in the stylish dining area. After dinner, stretch out on a sofa in the living area and catch up on your favourite TV shows. At the end of the day, there are two beautifully styled double bedrooms upstairs to choose from – one of which has a skylight window for stargazing.
Lace up your hiking boots and climb to the top of historic Morpeth Castle (1 mile) to see the panoramic views of the River Wansbeck, Carlisle Park and the Morpeth Chantry. Drive 8.5 miles to the coast to reach Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, a scenic, peaceful, wildlife-rich bay with a lovely sandy beach. Alternatively, pack up a picnic and head to Whitley Bay Beach (15.5 miles) to bask in the sun, take a refreshing dip in the North Sea, or enjoy a leisurely stroll along the promenade.
