Enjoy open-plan living in this spacious rural haven designed for two.

With a tranquil location on an organic farm in the middle of the 2,500 acre Fallodon Estate, and within easy reach of Alnwick and Bamburgh, this charming one bedroom cottage offers an ideal base for exploring Northumberland’s dramatic coastline. Positioned alongside a historic water mill, you can simply switch off from the bustle of life and embrace this rural escape.

As soon as you arrive at Garden Cottage, you’ll note the attention to detail and the inspired design touches that flow throughout this interior. The open-plan living space forms the heart of this beautiful cottage and is generously proportioned, with plenty of room to enjoy cooking and dining together before curling up in front of the wood-burning stove to watch a movie. Sliding doors open onto the patio, where you’ll find garden furniture for al fresco meals, with a step leading to the fenced garden beyond, and this creates a lovely indoor-outdoor flow of space on warmer days.

The kitchen features Shaker-style cabinetry in a dove grey hue, with marbled worktops, complemented by oak dining furniture for a classic-contemporary look. Colourful rugs and patterned textiles and lampshades add pops of colour and personality to this open-plan space, alongside understated neutrals in the furniture. The wood-burner offers a cosy focal point alongside the relaxed seating, while the ceiling-height bookcase is filled with titles to browse, so you can light the stove (logs are provided from wood felled on the Fallodon estate) and curl up with a book if the weather shifts.

Indeed this interior has been designed with outdoor adventures in mind as the large hallway offers storage space to offload boots and coats, and it’s also the perfect spot to wipe down any canine companions – two dogs are welcome here.

Accessed from the living space, the bedroom features an elegant upholstered bed, and the warm, neutral colour palette is punctuated by sophisticated textiles, accessories and artworks, creating a sumptuous haven. The bathroom echoes this aesthetic and features a separate bath and a large walk-in shower, with geometric tiling adding a contemporary edge.

Both the heating and the hot water are provided by the biomass boiler that’s fuelled by woodchip harvested from the surrounding estate – a wonderful sustainable touch in this thoughtfully designed cottage. With spectacular beaches on the doorstep and coastal paths to explore, along with a wealth of historic sites, this is a place to unwind and recharge while discovering the beauty of this area.

There is informal fishing available on the lake which is stocked with trout and is ideal for family and friends who wish to dabble. There are also wild brown trout in the burn. It is on a catch-and-release basis and there is no charge.

Location

Set within the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Embleton is a pretty village which is perfect for a coastal escape. The village is perched on a ridge with breathtaking views over Embleton Bay, a vast sandy beach which is overlooked by the dramatic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle. This setting provides the perfect backdrop for leisurely walks, wildlife spotting, and lazy days spent enjoying the sea air.

The ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle can be reached via a scenic clifftop walk which is dotted with sheep and provides a glimpse into the area's fascinating history. Local amenities include several charming pubs and cosy cafés, while nearby Craster, famous for its smoked kippers and harbour, is a must-visit spot for seafood lovers.

For day trips, the grand castle and diverse gardens in the historic town of Alnwick are just a short distance away. The Northumbrian coastline is filled with gems to explore, from the towering Bamburgh Castle to the wildlife-rich Farne Islands and the historic castle and priory on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne.
