About the host
Hosted by Laura Smales
Laura Smales has managed Thornton Farm Cottages since 2009. We are a small family run organic arable farm near Berwick-upon-Tweed. Our family have lived here since 1948 so we know the area pretty well!
Why they chose this property
Thornton is a small farm with deer and lots of wildlife. The night skies and sun rises are something else.
There are peaceful walks around the local area as we are well away from a main road. It's quiet enough for families and peaceful enough for a complete get away. You're also a short drive from shops, pubs and more importantly, stunning Northumberland coastline. We have a choice of local beaches, all of which are clean and easily accessible.

What makes this property unique
Wagtail is cosy, especially with a log burner and unlimited logs. The interior is modern and well kitted out for a home from home vibe. There is even a Nespresso machine which adds to the little bit of comfort. The garden leads straight out from the cottage and you can enjoy a morning coffee looking out to fields. It's very peaceful.
