 Ryecroft
Cottage has a truly idyllic setting surrounded by spectacular scenery,
actually inside the National Park. Walk straight from the door into
unspoilt hills, native woodland and heather moor, watered by meandering
rivers and tumbling streams - within minutes you will feel as if
you are miles from anywhere!
 The
area is rich with wildflowers and teeming with wildlife. Rabbits
and voles often play in the garden; woodpeckers and numerous other
species feed at the window-view bird table; and you have an excellent
chance of seeing birds of prey and rare red squirrels.
Two prehistoric hillforts and a 16th century fortified farmhouse
are just a short walk away. All Northumberland's attractions (coast,
castles, National Trust properties, Hadrian's Wall, Alnwick Garden)
are within an hour's drive.
Inspired by many years' experience of staying in holiday cottages
ourselves, Ryecroft is clean, comfortable, uncluttered and equipped
with everything you might need. It's a traditional Northumbrian
cottage, all on one floor, completely refurbished to a high standard
with controllable central heating. Well fitted kitchen with all
the usual equipment, washing machine/tumble dryer, dishwasher and
microwave. Living room: open fire (free logs), splendid views, satellite
TV. Two bedrooms: one with king size double-bed, the other with
twin beds. Good shower/bathroom with heated towel-rail. Enclosed
gardens, off-road parking, lockable cycle shed. Rothbury (full range
of shops/services) 15 minutes drive. Children welcome.
