Enjoying a wonderful countryside spot on the outskirts of the quiet village of Gilsland, this quaint country cottage offers the ideal spot for couples and families to escape everyday life and explore the beautiful scenery of Cumbria and Northumberland. This scenic spot is a playground for keen outdoor explorers, with a myriad of tracks and trails to enjoy on foot or two wheels beginning from the doorstep. Situated on Hadrian’s Wall on the border between Cumbria and Northumberland, the sleepy village of Gilsland, 2 miles away, offers some wonderful walks around the village and through its breathtaking scenery. Head to the pretty market town of Brampton, 10.5 miles away, to explore its fabulous selection of independent shops, cafés and restaurants before exploring the surrounding footpaths and bridleways that weave through woods, fields and moorlands. The market town of Haltwhistle, the geographical centre of Britain, can be reached within 7.5 miles.
Boasting a wonderfully high ceiling and gorgeous exposed beams, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that welcomes you into the heart of this home-from-home retains the rich heritage of the cottage amongst sumptuous contemporary touches that set the scene for pure relaxation. The stylish design of the kitchen will inspire you to get creative with your local produce, whilst the cosy lounge area provides the perfect spot to unwind weary walking muscles. At the end of a busy day’s adventure, the en-suite king-size bedroom and en-suite twin bedroom offer a haven of tranquillity to retire to, with neutral hues perfectly complementing the wild countryside views surrounding you. A lovely shower room completes this retreat.
From sunrise to sunset, the open front patio offers the perfect peaceful place to dine alfresco or simply relax amongst your rolling countryside views, taking in the wild forest beyond. Outside, you’ll also find private parking for two cars. Please note that this property is in a complex with other properties, so dogs must be kept on a lead unless in the dog exercise area.
