Accommodation

The cottages were developed from an 18th century byre and granary using Charles’s skills as an engineer and Dee’s creative background in fashion and textile design.  Their work sympathetically retains many original features and the historic feel of the place combined with very comfortable and high spec modern building design.

All three cottages form part of one traditional Northumbrian sandstone building, with a paved patio area outside including original feed troughs overflowing with cottage flowers.  Each cottage has its own front door leading into its open plan ground floor space. The parking area is immediately beside the cottages.

These are very comfortable and cosy houses that work equally well individually or taken together to accommodate larger groups. They comprise -

East Cottage.  Sleeps 4

*  Glazed front door leading into: Open plan double height sitting room comfortably seating 6, log fireplace, well-equipped kitchen with dining table seating 6. Spiral staircase to first floor. 

*  1 double bedroom and en-suite bathroom (bath).  1 twin bedroom with mezzanine balcony over sitting room.  Spacious wet room.

*  There is an interconnecting door joining East and Middle Cottages on the ground floor, in case larger groups wish to rent both.

*  East Cottage makes an ideal living space for 4 people.
