    “Nice quiet spot, set back from busy road and well insulated from traffic noise.”

    Enclosed courtyard shared with other rental. Good facilities, everything catered for. Easy access to Morpeth pubs, restaurants, shopping. Short drive to coast. Loved the ticking grandfather clock, very relaxing. Dark wood panelling and floors in living room - lighting could be improved with some reading lights. Overall a good find.

The property

Morpeth 3.2 miles. Tucked away within a rural countryside setting in the village of Longhirst, on the grounds of the owners home, rests this charming stone-built holiday home, The Granary. Set across two levels and boasting an interior full of traditional character, The Granary makes an idyllic base for both families and friends alike looking for an adventure in the North East. Park up in either of your two off-road parking spaces before unloading your bags and making your way through the quaint patio area, idyllically positioned at the foot of your new home-from-home, and stepping inside to begin your staycation. Be charmed by the spectacular traditional décor of the open-plan kitchen/diner, beautifully adorned with exposed wooden beams, terracotta tiled flooring and a charming farmhouse style interior, equipped with a range of fantastic facilities to entice any budding chef. Uncork a bottle of wine and gather your loved ones together at the rustic wooden dining table taking centre stage in the sociable space to tuck-in to the fruits of your labor. Moving through the property, discover the spacious sitting room, enveloped in light welcomed in through the patio doors and thoughtfully laid out with a pair of elegant chesterfield sofas and sumptuous armchairs gathered in front of the television, perfect for settling down of an evening with a movie marathon. If you're not ready for the celebrations to end, carry the conversation outdoors to the rear courtyard, where you can soak in the countryside setting of your fabulous holiday home and meet likeminded holiday makers. As the day draws to a close, climb the stairs to the first floor where you'll find three well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a rustic four-poster double bed, a standard double bed and a triple bunk, each offering ample storage space to unpack your belongings and make yourself at home. Completing the property is a family bathroom, fit with both a bath and walk-in shower, giving guests the choice between an indulgent soak following a day of adventures or a quick morning rinse ahead of a new day. A short walk from your doorstep will bring you to Longhirst Hall Golf Course, where avid golfers can take their pick between two 18-hole lakeland courses, each enveloped by the spectacular greenery of the rolling Northumberland countryside; a truly lovely spot to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. For a coastal adventure, visit the popular seaside town of Whitley Bay, where you can soak in the sunshine from the glorious sands of Whitley Bay Beach, try your luck at the amusement arcades lining the promenade, or indulge in the seaside tradition of fresh fish and chips. The historic market town of Morpeth rests a short distance away, home to a plethora of eateries and well-stocked convenience stores to help assist with your self-catering needs, along with a host of sights and attractions worth visiting, including Morpeth Castle, Morpeth Golf Club and the award-winning Carlisle Park, decorated in formal gardens and ancient woodland. Jump in the car and journey south to the bustling city of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, where you can marvel at the changing colours of the Millenium Bridge from the Quayside, tour the remarkable collection of British artwork at the Laing Art Gallery, wander through the stalls at Grainger Market, or get dressed to the nines and enjoy a night on the town, with a large selection of bars, clubs and pubs to frequent. With all of this and more, choose The Granary as an excellent base for an escape to the North East.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
