About this property
Sitting proudly in the rural setting of Harnham, a quaint village near Ponteland in Northumberland, lies this outstanding, four-bedroom, stone-built holiday home, Harnham Hall Cottage. Boasting off-road parking for four cars, excellent interiors finished to a high standard, with décor that perfectly incorporates the old and new, and a superb location just a short drive south of the magnificent Northumberland National Park, this wonderful cottage welcomes a large family or group of sharing friends for a relaxing, self-catered getaway in the beautiful, northern countryside. Park up, unpack and make yourself at home in your lovely new dwelling, where you'll find an array of exquisite living spaces.

Alternatively, a grand dining room invites the whole group to gather, dine, and catch up on the days' events whilst you raise a glass of wine to toast your trip. In the evening, settle down in the sitting room, where two plush sofas and a Smart TV offer an idyllic spot to watch a film whilst you're kept warm and toasty by the crackling embers of a woodburning stove. When sleep calls, head upstairs to refresh with a rejuvenating shower before you finally tuck yourself in for a well-earned rest in one of the four sumptuous bedrooms. If you can tear yourself from your amazing new lodgings, lace up your boots and explore your local area. Be sure to stock up on essentials at the Belsay Post Office before you sit down to enjoy a pub lunch at The Beresford Arms. A visit to the Belsay Hall Quarry Garden is simply a must whilst you're in the area, whilst the Kirkley Hall Zoological Gardens offer you and the gang a chance to get up close and personal with exotic wildlife! For a full day out, make the brief car trip south into the bustling city of Newcastle, a location teeming with noteworthy landmarks and attractions, including the Discovery Museum, the Great North Museum: Hancock, the Gateshead Millennium Bridge, and the scenic greens of Exhibition Park.
