Separate Toilet.. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Welcome pack. . Enclosed back garden with sitting out area, BBQ and garden furniture. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking.. Built in 1833, the cottage has been beautifully updated and renovated to an exceptional standard. The elegant contemporary interiors blend with traditional features and quality fixtures and furnishings. The spacious living room is filled with natural light from three large windows framing views of the countryside. A stylish and relaxing room with beams to the ceiling and a feature fireplace. There is a second lounge area which has a cosy boutique style, a lovely space to relax after dinner or watch TV. The open plan kitchen/diner makes a great social space, with the kitchen being well equipped with everything you will need for your stay, and leading out to a utility room with washer, sink and cloakroom. The master bedroom with king size bed is bright and airy with fabulous views. The second bedroom has a double bed, and third bedroom has a super king bed which can be arranged as twin on request. The bathroom has a rainfall shower over a large bath. There is also a separate WC. Outside is a beautiful, tiered garden with fruit trees and extensive lawned area stepping up to a raised woodland area set with garden furniture to sit and enjoy the stunning views of the countryside and the Cheviot Hills.
Conveniently close to the A697, with access to explore this beautiful and historic part of North Northumberland. The market town of Alnwick with its castle, Alnwick Gardens, and a wide array of independent shops, galleries and eateries is within just 8 miles. The picture-postcard town of Rothbury sitting at the foot of the Simonside and Lordenshaw Hills, with Cragside Hall on its outskirts, 9 miles away. Wooler is a welcoming market town 11 miles from the property, nestled at the foot of the Cheviot Hills and offering a good selection of shops, pubs, and restaurants. Walkers and cyclists will enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the surrounding countryside with its many challenging or less strenuous walks or trails close by, and any stargazers will delight in the dark sky offerings on the doorstep. The Northumberland Heritage Coast is less than 15 miles east and there are no less than 10 castles to explore within 25 miles, with many Iron Age discoveries to be had very close to the property. Shawdon Hill Cottage is an excellent base to uncover the beauty of North Northumberland and has easy access to the Scottish Borders or even Edinburgh which is only 74 miles away. Beach 15 miles. Pub and restaurant 1 1/4 miles. This property can be booked with Shawdon Hill Coach House (UK31949) to accomodate parties of 8.
