Property code: OC-566718

This intimate and romantic bolthole is situated in an awe-inspiring countryside spot and is ideal for those who love to adventure and roam on foot. Once a blacksmith’s forge, this property has been lovingly converted into a studio property combining contemporary styling with characterful features.

Inside, the open-plan living area set beneath a vaulted ceiling is super light and airy. Get cosy on the sofa in front of the roaring wood burner. Alongside the lounge is a compact, yet practical kitchen with everything you need to create hearty breakfasts, prepare delicious dinners, or even make picnics to take with you when you head out exploring. A useful little two-seater dining table is also provided. Adjacent is an alcove containing a king-size bed, set in front of large windows offering superb views. A family bathroom completes the interior. Outside of this quaint little property, you will find the perfect spot to sip on a morning coffee or dine alfresco of an evening, overlooking the rolling views, or stargazing when the night is clear.

Set in a quiet spot just on the cusp of the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you will find walking routes close by to keep you occupied. Head off along the Northumberland Coast Path which can be accessed via the pretty village of Beadnell (3 miles), which has a wide and sandy beach, that is great for water sports, and some lovely village pubs. Alternatively, head 3 miles south to Newton-by-the-Sea, where you can visit the ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle by foot.

The Forge is small but was perfect for the two of us and our two dachshunds with the garden fully enclosed. Great walks from cottage and of course the nearby coast.

We have previously stayed at The Forge and were delighted with our stay on the first occasion and that's why we chose to return.

The bed is wonderfully comfy and even though the property is compact, the fact that it still offers a bath is wonderful after a long day of walking. I'm sure we will be back to visit The Forge again.

Very easy - great place. A floor plan would have helped for the property. Logs were missing and we couldn't get hold of anyone to get any.

Compact and comfy. Good central location. Really like Tughall Steads as a location. Everyone is friendly in the nearby cottages and its nice to have people about, but at night the place is dark and peaceful. The stars are amazing. We spent a few evenings just sitting in the garden with our bottle of wine, star gazing.
