Located in the tranquil Breamish Valley on the edge of the Cheviot Hills and Northumberland National Park, you will experience the freedom, space and seclusion of this dramatic wide rolling borderland.

Take the footpaths and bridleways direct from your doorstep, and in minutes you are transported back in time to the Iron Age as you visit the numerous hill forts and ancient Iron Age settlements that abound in the surrounding countryside. A decade of archaeological discovery in the valley has unearthed this amazing insight into our past. Enjoy the landscape at your own pace, take a gentle stroll through the valley, a longer hike over the rolling hills or a bike ride - all perfect ways to absorb this rich heritage. Planning your trips couldn't be simpler - the National Park Visitor Centre is situated only a minute's walk away and offers visitors year-round, ranger-led guided walks and activities.

One step beyond our secluded three-acre grounds, the winding river Breamish flows gently through the valley. Here, children can safely explore to their hearts delight, or venture further upwards on to the open heather moorlands.

The River Breamish is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), one of the cleanest rivers in the United Kingdom, and an Area of Conservation (SAC). It is a European site because of its importance for salmon, lampreys (primitive fish), otters and water-crowfoot (a floating buttercup). Sit on the flat haughland, have a picnic and soak up the sights and sounds of this stunning river valley, and don’t be surprised if you see deer, owls, red squirrels, heron and much more enjoying the same views!
