The place
If you’re looking for a bit of peace and quiet, with adventures in every direction – this is the spot for you and your four-legged friend. It’s just a 20-minute drive to Northumberland National Park, and the same to the sea in the opposite direction. If you’re headed to the coast, you can pick from castle hopping, exploring the fishing villages and market towns for shops and cafés or, of course, a good old sprint down the sand! The national park holds all the hikes you could ask for and makes the perfect spot to work some energy out of the hound. When you’re back at this dog-friendly cabin however, you’ve got your own little slice of the countryside to kick back and enjoy, taking in the views from the enclosed garden, or snuggling on the sofa together in a tangle of four legs and two. Although the hot tub, is strictly a human treat (sorry Fido)
In the neighbourhood
- Walk from the door: a gravel track runs for five miles through the farm, passing by the 14 windmills on site. Just follow the path for a nice long wander!
- Hepburn Woods, 25-minute drive. Hop on over to Hepburn Woods for a stroll with the hound in tow (or more like you in tow) and explore the trails. Just keep an eye out for horse riders and mountain bikers!
- Bamburgh Beach & Castle, 25-minute drive. With the town, castle and beach all close enough together to leave the car and explore, this is a great spot for sandy strolls and a warming cup of tea.
- Tankerville Arms, 20-minute drive. If you’re in the mood for classic pub fare, and a roaring fire, then this is the spot for you. A 19th century coaching inn, they focus on local produce, and real ales. And are, of course, dog friendly.
