Stay at this charming stone property in the historical village of Otterburn for a rural retreat with your loved ones. It's right on the edge of Northumberland National Park, a haven for hikers, cyclists and mountain bikers. Spend a day in the hills or marvelling at fascinating castles, then settle in for the night in front of a cosy traditional fire. The house sleeps up to four people as well as two dogs, so there's no need to leave your pets at home. This traditional cottage is beautifully decorated in a period style that's befitting of the building, with antique furniture and vintage-inspired soft furnishings in muted shades. Relax with a book on one of the sumptuous sofas while your canine companions doze off by the roaring fire. The outdoor space has stone steps, decking and a seating area. On slower days, enjoy a home-cooked lunch in the dining area then take a pot of afternoon coffee out to the summer house at the end of the garden. At night, make sure you check out the sky – in clear weather, you'll be wowed at how bright the stars are! The village, where you can enjoy a pub lunch and delicious meals out, offers wonderful views over the surrounding moorland and hills. The national park is an outdoor lover's dream – head for a day out in the breathtaking Kielder Water and Forest Park (20 miles), where you'll find the largest manmade lake in northern Europe and the biggest forest in England. Or spend an afternoon at Rothbury (15 miles), a pretty riverside town with independent shops. The National Trust property at Cragside (16 miles) is also well worth the trip for its perfectly manicured gardens, magical woodlands and Victorian stately home.
