    “Wow wow wow.”

    From the minute we arrived at Sarah’s Cottage we realised we had hit the jackpot!! We have stayed at many places (with our spaniel) and this is top drawer for comfort, relaxation, style, presentation and enabled our complete R and R. On arrival we had welcome gifts, local gorgeous cheeses, a lemon drizzle cake to die for and freshly laid eggs (produced on site by the resident chickens). Brian and Sarah are fabulous hosts and their local knowledge of the best places to visit was a big help ...

On arrival we had welcome gifts, local gorgeous cheeses, a lemon drizzle cake to die for and freshly laid eggs (produced on site by the resident chickens). Brian and Sarah are fabulous hosts and their local knowledge of the best places to visit was a big help. There was everything you would ever need. The bed was sooo comfortable and the shower amazing!! Top quality throughout. We very much look forward to returning to Sarah’s Cottage very soon. John Jackie and Archie

The property

Morpeth 8.7 miles. Attached to the owner's home adjacent to the quiet Northumberland village of Hartburn, Sarah's Cottage is a beautiful two-bedroom cottage offering a relaxing retreat. Enjoying quality furnishings and interiors and settled within the owner's 14 acres of grounds, Sarah's Cottage is an ideal escape for two couples to the Northumberland countryside, within easy reach of Morpeth and the coast. Two off-road parking spots await you on arrival before you come to your own front door and into a spacious entrance hall, noticing the beautiful tumble limestone floors below. A cloakroom rests of this hall, before you continue through to find the pristine kitchen, recently fitted with sparkling granite worktops and dove cupboards, with a handy dishwasher among the integrated appliances here. Head into the living/dining room to relax with a woodburning stove settled in front of the sofas and armchairs and the Smart TV, whilst a dining table sits behind providing somewhere to gather at mealtimes. Patio doors open out onto a patio area to enjoy with seating here, while further into the garden, find a lawned area dedicated for guests among the wonderful grounds, with outdoor seating here too for summer fun. There are two staircases on either side of the property, each leading to a super king-size bedroom and a double which both enjoy light and bright interiors, Velux windows, and one showcasing a bespoke wardrobe made from stunning timber. Each also benefits from an en-suite, with one boasting a shower room, and the other a bathroom, with a lockable interconnecting door between the two. The village of Hartburn lies less than ten miles from the bustling market town of Morpeth where you'll find a host of shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy all settled around the winding River Wansbeck. Enjoy riverside walks, strolls through Morpeth's green areas or visit nearby Bolam Lake Country Park for a walk around the waters, canoeing or fishing for pike and perch. The English Heritage's Belsay Hall, Castle and Gardens presents a deligthful day out exploring this grand property inspired by Greek temples, with medieval ruins and quarry gardens to explore too. Also take a trip to Bamburgh Castle in Alnwick as well as Warkworth and Dunstanborough. Don't forget Gosforth Park and Rothbury as well as Wallington which are only 15 minutes drive away. Something for all ages can be discovered at Kirkley Hall Zoological Gardens, home to many exotic animals with a petting barn too, as well as woodland trails and a tea room, while more animal encounters can be found at Whitehouse Farm Centre. Other attractions well worth visiting include the National Trust's Cragside, former home to a famous inventor, Northumberland Country Zoo and Northumberlandia, a scenic sculpture trail. Take a trip to Hadrians Wall and all of its points of historical interest and Holy island across the tidal road. Farne Islands are also accessible by boat where there is a bird sanctuary to enjoy as well as being home to loads of seals. For keen golfers in the group enjoy Alnmouth Golf Course which is the oldest links course in the country. Also for keen race goers make a visit to Newcastle, Hexham and Kelso for a great day out. Enjoy days on the coast at beaches like Newbiggin-by-the-Sea Beach, Cresswell Beach and Alnmouth Beach, with gorgeous coastal walks to enjoy to soak up the stunning scenery.
