    “Our stay at Glororum was outstanding, in the middle of nowhere, peace and quiet - and absolutely ideal for dogs - the garden was lovely.”

    One can walk into Bamburgh down an overgrown bridleway. My first time to Northumberland - I've waited a long time to go and it certainly didn't disappoint. Breathtaking beaches, lovely local people, so friendly, every day was special. If you haven't visited Northumberland you are definitely missing out. Thanks to everyone who helped un enjoy our stay.

    We are so glad you enjoyed the cottage and beautiful Northumberland. We had 2 months before you arrived and definitely didn't want to go back to the real world. Peter and Janice. Property Owner

The property

Nestled in the middle of beautiful fields with fabulous views of the Farne Islands and Bamburgh castle is The Cottage at Glororum, with an enclosed garden and parking for at least four cars. The Cottage at Glororum is a fabulous choice, having been extended and refurbished to an excellent standard with many beautiful, natural materials to ensure The Cottage at Glororum is exquisite. After parking up, step inside into the entrance hallway where you can leave your boots and coats before getting to know your new home-from-home. Move into the contemporary kitchen/diner which boasts solid oak units and granite work surfaces with beautiful slate flooring, where the designated chef can take responsibility and whip up something tasty, while the rest of the group sit at the breakfast bar or set the dining table. There is also comfortable seating in the spacious dining area with an additional TV – ideal for use as a second lounge. Carry the conversation into the lounge, where you can relax beside the open fire, an inviting spot whatever the season, and catch up on your favourite shows on the TV. Take the evening outside and enjoy a moment within the enclosed garden, sipping on your favourite tipple whilst your pooch stretches their legs. There are bird feeders in the garden should you like to bring seed along to attract even more for your close up viewing. As the night rolls in, take comfort within the bedrooms; on the ground-floor there is a king-size and a twin, serviced by a shower room, whilst upstairs lies the master with super-king-size bed, en-suite shower room, oak furniture and a bay window providing an outlook the surrounding fields. You will find local services only 1.5 miles away in Bamburgh and Seahouses, including stores where you can stock up on all your self-catering necessities, as well as wonderful pubs and restaurants like The Lord Crewe, The Castle Inn, and The Potted Lobster. Discover the impressive castle, embark on a historical trip to St. Cuthbert's Cave, and stop by the RNLI Grace Darling Museum to learn more about the life of Victorian Britain's greatest heroine. Long, windswept walks around Bamburgh Castle Beach are ideal, and in the warmer months, you can even have a refreshing swim! While there are many local golf courses for those enthusiastic golfers, the Inner Farne Islands, home to hermits and monks since the seventh century, are located directly across from the beach. Fantastic sights can be found further out, such as the well-known Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the ancient walled border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Book The Cottage at Glororum and start planning your Northumberland holiday agenda. Note:- Security cameras are on the exterior viewing the front of cottage, which can be viewed if necessary, at your request.

About the location

BAMBURGH

Seahouses 3.5 miles; Beadnell 5.1 miles; Alnwick 16.9 miles.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.

Note: This property does not accept any short breaks
