Gather friends or family for a memorable break at this charming stone-built cottage in the peaceful hamlet of Netherton, surrounded by the wild beauty of the Northumberland countryside. With a crackling wood burner in the cosy lounge and a sunny garden featuring a summer house, this wonderful retreat is ready and waiting, whatever the weather or time of year.
Enter through the front door or via the handy garage/boot room, perfect for storing bikes, muddy boots, and extra holiday supplies, thanks to a bonus fridge/freezer. Inside, a hallway leads to the lounge, where the crackling wood burner and Smart TV promise relaxed evenings. The bright, open-plan kitchen/diner is ideal for entertaining, with French doors opening to the enclosed garden and a dining table for family feasts. A utility room offers a washing machine, dishwasher and freezer, while the cloakroom adds extra convenience. Upstairs, three stylish bedrooms provide flexibility for groups, comprising: two super-king-size zip-and-link bedrooms (convertible to twins) and a king-size with its own en-suite. A sleek family bathroom completes the picture. Outside, the enclosed garden boasts multiple seating areas, a chiminea, and outdoor dining furniture for lazy lunches or drinks under the stars. A detached summer house/conservatory is a lovely spot for a coffee while listening to the stream at the bottom of the garden. Private off-road parking for three cars ensures a stress-free stay.
Just 6 miles from the market town of Rothbury and 4 miles from Thropton – home to two pubs serving hearty meals – this is a fantastic base for exploring.
