Overview
Property code: OC-COQ72

This charming single-storey cottage in Newton-on-the-Moor offers cosy rustic charm and elegant finishing touches, with a central open fire that creates a warm, inviting space after refreshing countryside walks. This peaceful spot is ideal for groups of six and their curious canines.

Enter this tranquil holiday home, find a space for your walking boots, then wander through to the kitchen to make a cup of tea or pour a glass of wine. Find everything you need in here to help you create culinary creations that the whole group can enjoy around the dining table. Head through to the lounge to watch a box set or spend time collecting your thoughts in the light and airy conservatory. With stunning views across the garden, this is a lovely place to unwind with a book. On cooler evenings, settle in beside the glowing fireplace to relax, and when the sun is shining, fire up the BBQ in the south-facing garden and enjoy the peaceful presence of the surrounding wildlife. As night falls, venture along the hallway to the comfortable bedrooms, whether you’re choosing the two sumptuous doubles with en-suite bathrooms or the charming twin zip-and-link bedroom with exclusive use of the shower room.

Take advantage of the property’s proximity to Alnwick (6 miles) and spend a leisurely afternoon touring the magical castle and gardens, as well as its wealth of shops and eateries. Discover fascinating facts and history at Warkworth Castle (7.5 miles), where you can also combine this with a trip to the beach here. If you fancy something a little quieter, Amble is 8.5 miles away and has a great selection of artisan shops, pretty cafes, and boat trips to Coquet Island to see the puffins.

This is a lovely holiday home with several luxury touches, including the amazing bathrooms and Temple Spa toiletries. We also very much appreciated our very generous welcome hamper, not only for us, but for our dog, too! The house is very spacious and comfortable, and very well equipped for cooking meals. And with a table in the kitchen as well aRead mores in the living/dining room area, you could be informal and formal. It was also very warm and cosy, especially the conservatory, which was lovely to sit in, reading. Furnishings are all top quality, and the beds are especially comfortable. The garden is also spacious and wonderful, and had many spring bulbs flowering during our stay. It is also very private and peaceful, and even though there is a pub right opposite, it is not visible from the house, and we heard no noise from it in the week we were there. The house is very easily accessible from the A1, which also means it's really easy to get to absolutely anywhere in Northumberland! There is also plenty of parking. Definitely recommend this place.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ryan Leigh over the Christmas period. We found the house really comfortable and cosy. It contained everything we needed for our stay and David the housekeeper was really friendly and helpful. The location is excellent for exploring Northumberland and the icing on the cake is that you have the Cook & Barker Inn so closeRead more for excellent pub grub. Only negative is that anyone with mobility issues needs to be aware that it is not possible to enter the property without negotiating some steps. Hide

So much room for 4 adults and a 3 year old. Beautifully furnished and the large en-suite bathroom was wonderful. Nice quiet location with pub just across the road, which we never heard any noise from; lovely food. Can also recommend Nelsons at the Park cafe at Swarland which also had a good play area, The Old Stables tea room Alnwick has delicious Read morecakes and light lunches but has limited opening days. Good food at The Courtyard, Beadnell. A well placed cottage for accessing many local attractions. Hide

Previous occupation with pet dogs had left excessive hairs. Vacuum cleaners were blocked and full of hair debris and floors and upholstery was dirty.
