2 Bedroom House in Melkridge
Tucked away in the scenic countryside near Hadrian’s Wall, this characterful cottage offers couples or a small family the ideal base to explore some of Northumberland’s most fascinating attractions. 2 miles away, the friendly town of Haltwhistle provides everything you need, from tempting pubs and family-friendly restaurants to shops for picnic supplies. For history lovers, a visit to Vindolanda Roman Fort and Army Museum (3.5 miles) is a must. This extraordinary archaeological site brings Roman Britain to life with excavated ruins, artefacts, and live digs in the summer months. The Sill: National Landscape Discovery Centre (3 miles) is packed with interactive exhibits about the local landscape, walking trails, and a rooftop view that's not to be missed. It's also a great jumping-off point for exploring Hadrian's Wall Country, with dramatic views, scenic walks, and the charming village of Gilsland, 9.5 miles from the cottage. Head 13 miles to Hexham, home to Hexham Abbey, Sele Park, and Hexham Racecourse. Down three stone steps, the entrance opens into a handy porch and boot room to kick off muddy boots, hang coats, and pop on a wash using the built-in washing machine. Step into the inviting lounge where a stone fireplace houses a crackling wood burner for cosy evenings in. Sink into the comfortable sofa or one of the armchairs and watch a favourite film on the Smart TV. A feature stone wall, bookshelf, and tasteful styling give this space a homely feel. The contemporary kitchen/diner is bright and thoughtfully equipped, with seating for up to four guests. A large window lets in plenty of natural light and frames peaceful views of the woodland and stream below. French doors lead out to a stunning cantilever balcony with garden furniture and a striking picture window that brings the outside in. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious king-size bedroom with a window seat and an en-suite bathroom behind a sliding door. The second bedroom has a single bed with a pull-out trundle bed for an extra guest, plus a sleek en-suite shower room and views to enjoy. Outside, the elevated balcony feels nestled in the trees for early morning coffees or al fresco meals in the fresh air. There’s private off-road parking for one car on the adjacent hard-standing, with further parking for a second vehicle on the nearby lane.
