This pretty stone cottage sits in an enviable position in the grounds of Middleton Hall with views over the boating lake and far-reaching views from the rear of the property to the mystical Holy Island of Lindisfarne.

Lake Cottage has been equipped with families in mind. The large garden is fully-enclosed so little ones can play safely and enjoy the charming, fully-equipped Wendy house, swings, slide and sand pit.

Guests will also enjoy the 30 acres of secluded, wooded grounds which include a large lawn ideal for children to play, a terrace with outside seating area, woodland walks and two lakes with private fishing.

A rowing boat and oars are provided for the more energetically-inclined!

If you can prise the children away from the garden, there is a great deal to explore in the local area. Lake Cottage is a stone's throw from Northumberland's magnificent coastline, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Whether for walking, kite-surfing, riding, sandcastle-building, dune-surfing or just sitting and enjoying the views, the Northumberland beaches are well worth a visit. One of our favourite spots, only a few miles from the Hall, is Bamburgh Beach, with miles of pristine sand, nestled behind huge sand dunes and overlooked by the impressive Bamburgh Castle. Also close by is the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. This tiny, picturesque island linked at low tide to the mainland, is an overwhelmingly mystical place, home to the evocative remains of a ruined eleventh-century priory, a beautifully restored castle and the infamous Lindisfarne Mead.

Floorplans for Lake Cottage will be available soon. In the meantime, please contact us if you have any queries in relation to the layout of the accommodation.
