  • Beautiful barn conversion in a rural setting close to Bamburgh Beach and castle
  • Splendid open-plan living area on the first floor with a balcony overlooking open countryside
  • Superbly furnished throughout, with a vaulted ceiling and beams
Property code: OC-NB1962

Take in the staggering beauty of rural Northumberland when staying in this delightful barn conversion, an exceptional choice with luxury features throughout. Inviting four guests to stay, this unique holiday home benefits from a reverse-level layout with the living space on the first floor and an attractive balcony for soaking up those countryside views. Having made a plan of action for each adventure-filled day, head out to explore picture-perfect fishing villages, pristine beaches and remote islands from the Northumberland Coast AONB or rolling hills and rewarding hiking routes in Northumberland National Park.

This abode sits on a quiet estate with a collection of similar properties. Pass the furnished outdoor sitting area at the front of the property before stepping inside. You’re greeted on the ground floor by two bedrooms, a double and a twin, both served by a modern family bathroom. The double bedroom has been furnished with a TV for those truly restful mornings or evenings. Find another TV upstairs in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a place with vaulted ceilings, original beams and contemporary glass balustrades. There’s space to cook, dine and unwind in this room with soft seating for getting cosy on an evening. If the weather is balmy, take your tipple out onto the balcony and enjoy the views of the open countryside.

Venturing inland, the town of Wooler is just 10.5 miles away on the edge of the area’s mighty national park. A great place to embark on walks in the Glendale countryside, you can park the car here and set off walking, always looping back to enjoy a local town pub before heading home. A similarly appealing town is Alnwick (12 miles), well worth a visit for some shopping or dining out. In terms of beaches, you’re not at all far from Bamburgh Beach (5 miles), a stretch of appealing sand with the dramatic Bamburgh Castle set behind it and a popular golf course within reach.

This is a lovely cottage and is a great location for exploring the area. I wouldnt recommend if you have mobility issues, however, it suited the two of us perfectly

Very enjoyable stay. Accommodation fitted the bill perfectly. Great views from the balcony which was a big hit. Good communication from the owners who were most helpful. Hoping to return soon.

Very quiet comfortable & well equipped - super views from the Balcony with the sea in the distance. Good location for the Northumbria coast or the National Park & Cheviots/Borders region. Be aware that the lounge/kitchen is upstairs, which gives the great views but does mean it might impact anyone with mobility issues.

honest review from dog owner this lovely cosy cottage is in a great location . it has a lovely bedroom with super comfy bed , great decor with lovely finishing touches both upstairs and down . there re however some clear drawbacks for dog owners: they are not permitted in the bedrooms at all , the stairs are very steep and covered in laminate sRead moreo very difficult for dogs to climb - ours had to be carried up and down . there is no grass area for the essential " quick walks "to do their business and no non road walks from the property. in short a lovely homely cottage but NOT dog friendly.

This cottage is in a perfect location for touring round Northumberland and despite its proximity to the A1, is very quiet. It is bright and airy, with amazing views from the balcony. The bed and bedroom are very comfy and nicely decorated. The kitchen is well set out and equipped, but the appliances are rather dated. The living area benefits from tRead morehe many windows and views but again the TV and DVD are dated and one of the 2 sofas very uncomfortable as the springs have broken in the cushions. If anyone has mobility issues I would not recommend Cuthbert Cottage. The handrail on the stairs does not go all the way up and the allocated parking space is at an angle that made getting in and out of the car difficult as you have to parallel park up against a fence. The property allows dogs but in our opinion isnt dog friendly. Hide

This cottage is spacious, warm, comfortable and has everything you need. Short drive from Bamburgh, Seahouses and the A1 if you wish to travel further. Very good location.
