stone tollhouse of character on edge of village; cosy, quiet & comfortable
Unusual stone 1830’s cottage, on one level. Originally a tollhouse near the old bridge at Allendale, a charming village in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Five minutes walk from shops and pubs serving food. Nearby are: golf course, fishing, pony trekking, lead mining archaeology, Alston steam train and beautiful historic Hexham. World Heritage Sites of Hadrian’s Wall and Durham are easy to get to. In reach of Alnwick Garden, Angel of the North, Lake District and Northumberland National Parks. Or simply enjoy walking from the doorstep in the lovely valleys and moors of Hexhamshire. Ideal for two (can sleep four). The ideal hideaway!
One-bedroomed stone-built cottage, with beamed ceilings. Twin bedroom, and sofa bed in sitting room. Separate kitchen, and shower room. Sitting room with deep inset windows, has brick built open fire, piano, books, maps and board games (no TV). Lovely views, set at edge of quiet village.
