Welcome to Northumberland Cottage

You have found a jewel in a secret kingdom: a beautiful holiday cottage in the tranquil hamlet of Branton, Northumberland, two miles from the National Park Visitors' Centre in Ingram.

We're told that we provide excellent value for money and that all the extras, such as bikes and toys, books maps etc make holidaying with us extra special.Take a look....

Situated on a national cycle route (no 68) which meanders up the Breamish Valley into Northumberland National Park, this luxury 3-bedroom stone-built former farm cottage is set in idyllic walking and cycling country, a mile from a village pub, half a mile from the River Breamish, and only 10 miles from Alnwick. The property is beautifully refurbished, and furnished with charming antique pieces sourced from nearby Cheviot Antiques. It has an Inglenook fireplace with log bunring stove, Jerusalem Stone floored kitchen, sash windows, quality antique pine furniture and luxurious bedding and linen.

Whether you are dedicated ramblers, professionals escaping the rat-race, or parents with babies, toddlers, tweenies or teenagers, Northumberland Cottage is the perfect choice for a holiday in the countryside. Catering for those of you with twins is no problem! See Reviews to get an idea of what people say about the cottage.
