A stylish barn conversion and neighbouring bolthole in the heart of Hadrian’s Wall country.

Old Granary House and The Hat Shop are set in the midst of the Northumbrian countryside where the River North Tyne meanders its way towards nearby Hexham. Sleeping seven guests in four bedrooms in the main house and two guests in the cottage next door, these escapes are perfect for a group getaway and deliver rural seclusion, contemporary interiors, and easy access to the region’s wealth of local walks, bike rides, historic sites, and charming towns.

A handsome stone house surrounded by rolling countryside, the tastefully renovated Old Granary House is ideal for groups of friends or families seeking a spot of blissful isolation without compromising on stylish accommodation. On the ground floor, you’ll discover an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that’s flooded with light from bifold doors, which open out onto a generous south-facing patio and enclosed garden with far-reaching country views.

The space is designed with a considered mix of the antique and contemporary – sleek grey kitchen units contrast with a rustic timber dining table and cane chairs, while antique sideboards and a roaring wood burner sit by modern ladder shelves and wrought iron tables. The blend of old and new continues in the comfortable bedrooms found on the first floor, with three ensuite double rooms comprising a super king and two king size beds. The fourth room, a single, accesses a family bathroom with a combined bath and shower.

The Hat Shop can be found next door, perfect for a couple looking for a little peace and quiet during the holiday. While the cottage may appear traditional from the outside, inside you’ll find an open plan living space, which includes a seating area, a dining area and a kitchen. The vaulted ceiling enhances the feeling of space as does the soothing colour palette of neutral, earthy tones punctuated by subtle blue accents in the furniture and accessories, while the exposed timber roof beams add a beautiful rustic touch.

Relaxed seating creates a snug zone to curl up and watch a film after a day’s adventures and the compact kitchen includes everything you need to rustle up a meal or prep a picnic lunch to go. The bedroom is a comfortable haven with an upholstered super-king bed to sink into at the end of the day, while, as in the living space, the vaulted and beamed ceiling adds character here. The shower room off the sitting room features a large walk-in shower and is also suited to guests with limited mobility.

There’s plenty to keep you entertained at Old Granary House & The Hat Shop, including a games barn with a ping pong table, as well as host of activities to discover on your doorstep. Chesters Roman Fort – Britain’s best preserved Roman cavalry fort – sits almost literally next door while the celebrated Vindolanda Fort and Museum is just 15 minutes’ drive away.

ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION

For smaller groups, Old Granary House & The Hat Shop can be let as two separate units - Old Granary House sleeping 7 and The Hat Shop sleeping 2.

Set in the picturesque Tyne Valley, Hexham is a charming market town with cobbled streets and historic architecture. Home to an array of quirky coffee shops, award-winning restaurants, and excellent independent shops, as well as a racecourse and golf course, it makes for the perfect base from which to explore Hadrian's Wall country.

Enjoy local produce at Hexham Farmers’ Market, held twice a month, or perhaps visit one of the area's fine Michelin-starred restaurants or cosy gastropubs. Walkers and cylists are sure to enjoy exploring the varied landscapes bordering Hadrian's Wall, while history enthusiasts must visit the fascinating Roman sites of Chesters and Vindolanda.

Beyond Hexham, the village of Corbridge offers independent shops, pubs, and cafés, along with a popular delicatessen and farm shop. The nearby village of Bellingham, known as the gateway to Kielder Water & Forest Park, is on hand for those in search of outdoor adventures, while Matfen Hall's excellent spa and leisure facilities are also nearby if you'd like a little rest and relaxation.

Important Information

Old Granary House & The Hat Shop combines two adjoining properties: The Hat Shop, a one-bedroom holiday cottage, and Old Granary House, sleeping 7. However, please be aware there is no internal door between these two properties. The Hat Shop is accessed via the owner's courtyard, so it does not share an access drive or parking area with Old Granary House. Access between the two properties is either via the steep outdoor steps at the rear or following the driveway briefly out onto the road and taking the neighbouring driveway to the other property.

Old Granary House has farm barns on one side of the property while the garden bounds on to a section of the owner's garden. The Hat Shop looks onto a working yard with farm barns/workshops. The properties are adjacent to the owner's property. While the owners are on hand to help with any guest queries, they are very respectful of guest privacy.

While two dogs are welcome in Old Granary House, dogs are not permitted in The Hat Shop.

For safety reasons, we do not permit electric vehicle or hybrid car charging at this property. If you’re travelling by EV, discover your nearest electric vehicle charging point here.
