    “We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Ridge Cottage, and it was nothing short of spectacular!”

    Nestled in the serene countryside, this charming cottage provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cottage was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, blending modern comforts with rustic charm. The spacious living area, complete with a cozy fireplace, was ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring the stunning surroundings. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy for us ...

    Nestled in the serene countryside, this charming cottage provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cottage was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, blending modern comforts with rustic charm. The spacious living area, complete with a cozy fireplace, was ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring the stunning surroundings. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy for us to whip up delicious meals. The location couldn't be better! Ridge Cottage is conveniently situated on a quiet farm lane and near various walking trails, picturesque villages, and local towns and attractions. We visited Holy Island, Bamburgh Castle and Hadrian’s Wall all within an easy drive. The hosts were incredibly attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Their thoughtful touches and the most amazing welcome basket I’ve ever experienced filled with goodies for us and our dogs made us feel right at home. In summary, Ridge Cottage is a hidden gem that we highly recommend to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. We didn’t want to leave!

The property

Part of a delightful barn conversion, this stone-built cottage adjoins the owners' home in the rural hamlet of Whitridge, close to the larger hamlet of Longwitton, the village of Scots Gap and just 10 miles from Morpeth.

Comfortably furnished and well-appointed throughout, including wooden floors with toasty underfloor heating, this Longwitton cottage is in a perfect spot for exploring Northumberland.

This cottage near Scots Gap has two comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which is a walk-in wet room, making it ideal for the less sprightly.

To the front of this Northumberland cottage there is a spacious patio area with furniture and views of the spectacular countryside, a perfect place to sit and plan the day's activities.

A real bonus as the cottage is situated at the heart of one ofthe most beautiful parts of rural Northumberland with the surrounding area providing numerous riding, walking and cycling opportunities.

The nearby market town of Morpeth is home to the River Wansbeck and provides lovely riverside walks, along with great shops, pubs and restaurants.

A lovely Longwitton cottage and an ideal Northumberland destination at any time of year.
