    Unfortunately we both have recently had health issues and my husband is still having hand problems and I myself have only a few weeks ago now broken my arm so the lack of a shower in the cottage was very disappointing to say the least and we both had to do with basic washing due to both of our problems. That and the almost constant boiling water sounds overnight were the only two things that we found unfortunate. Otherwise it was a great time to get away from life and we found the area very interesting. We didn't use any of the facilities available but if we had been more mobile we possibly would have. Overall 9/10 thanks

The property

Wooler 2.7 miles.

Bracken Lodge is a striking stone retreat, perfectly positioned within the grounds of Akeld Manor and embraced by sweeping countryside vistas.

Brimming with character and charm, this inviting haven is ideal for couples yearning for a romantic escape to the awe-inspiring Northumberland National Park.

Step into the tiled hallway, where a rustic feature fireplace creates a warm welcome, before leaving your mud-splattered boots behind after a day of adventure.

Unwind in the elegant living/dining space, curling up together on the sumptuous sofa to enjoy a captivating film.

Savour precious moments as you prepare a feast in the country-style kitchen adorned with beautiful wooden details, then linger over your delicious meal at the dining table with a bottle of bubbly, before retiring to the luxurious king-size bedroom for a restful night’s sleep.

Completing the interior is a bright and refined bathroom featuring a generous bathtub.

Beyond the cottage, shared leisure facilities await: test your skills at the snooker or football tables, take a dip in the swimming pool, and relax at the rustic bar after a day of discovery.

Little ones will love the dedicated play areas. Bracken Lodge also provides outstanding event opportunities.

Whether planning an intimate wedding or a special celebration, the grounds offer a stunning backdrop, supported by trusted contacts for caterers, florists, marquee hire, celebrants and more.

Step outside and embrace the natural beauty—watch for the elusive Cheviot goats, shy yet captivating creatures that roam the hills and occasionally wander into the gardens, adding a truly magical touch to your stay.

Experience Northumberland like never before with an unforgettable escape to Bracken Lodge.
