About this property
Bellingham 2 miles. A luxury, well-presented mid-terrace cottage set within the grounds of historic Hesleyside Hall. Set in plenty of grounds and within easy access of many local attractions, this cottage would make a great place for a family or a group of friends. The whole of the cottage is furnished to a very high standard with luxury in mind throughout. On entry, you come into the fantastic well-equipped kitchen with great views across the grounds. There is also a lovely dining table; a great place to catch up after a day out and about exploring the area. Within the kitchen is a boot room area where you can hang those coats and leave those muddy boots to dry. Upstairs is a good-sized sitting room with views of the grounds and even to the River Tyne. There are three sumptuous bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room as well as a family bathroom. The cottage has a front lawned garden with furniture and access to the surrounding grounds, with plenty of areas to walk or cycle, as well as access to the river, where you can try your best to catch either a salmon, trout or sea trout. Located within the Northumberland National Park, you are within easy reach of local attractions, including Kielder Water, Corbridge, Hexham and the Northumberland Heritage Coast.

Excellent facilities, and spotlessly clean. Beautiful setting. Had two minor queries which the owner sorted immediately. Many thanks for a wonderful stay. Only downside was the rather late entry time to the cottage of 5pm, and very early departure time of 9am.
