With its elevated position just over the Border in Wark on the south bank of the River Tweed, this pretty three bedroom cottage is ideally positioned for country pursuits or simply indulging in a little relaxation time.

Lower Tweed fishing beats sit just minutes from the door for those looking to cast their line amidst the scenic heartland, yet perfectly placed for taking in all the sightseeing attractions both north and south of the Border.

On the ground floor, the kitchen has a relaxed country vibe with nature inspired accents from Lewis and Wood giving a nod to the rich fly fishing history of the area. The country theme continues into the three guest bedrooms, accessorised by warming tweeds and beautifully rich wool throws and cushions from the design house of Anta.

On the first floor, the sitting room enjoys views over the garden to the river beyond and features a large sofa and two wing back chairs using finest Moon wools from the mills of Yorkshire accented by sumptuous Mulberry velvets and plaids. Add the blissful beauty of a real fire for a perfect end to the day, along with a wee dram perhaps!

The cottage benefits from a large sun-trapped lawned garden to the rear, ideal for dogs and children and for taking advantage of those golden alfresco moments with friends and family.

Location

Located on the northern edge of Northumberland, the pretty village of Cornhill-on-Tweed is an ideal base for exploring both the North of England and South of Scotland. There's plenty to interest enthusiasts of fishing, hiking, and history, from the evocative castle ruins of nearby Norham to the banks of the salmon-filled River Tweed.

Cornhill-on-Tweed is home to a village shop, a café, and an excellent pub. The surrounding countryside is perfect for walkers and cyclists with mile upon mile of scenic trails available. The village of Coldstream, just across the River Tweed, is also on hand with a broader range of shops, galleries, and restaurants.

For day trips, the historic market towns of Berwick-upon-Tweed and Kelso are within easy reach. The hills and cliffs of the Northumberland National Park and Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are perfect for days spent exploring beautiful beaches and historic sites, while the dramatic abbeys and Reiver towers which are dotted throughout the Scottish Borders are equally fascinating.

The Little Things We Love

Snuggling up under the beautifully rich wool throws and cushions from the design house of Anta after a day of wandering along the banks of the River Tweed.

Don't take our word for it...

If you are seeking peace and quiet (as l was) with space to accommodate friends/family (we were 3 life long friends) with proximity to many sights of interest then Orchard Cottage in Northumberland is the perfect place. We put 1,000 miles on our rental car in 3 weeks and there were still things we missed so there was plenty to do. The people we encountered were friendly and helpful and always graciously welcoming. We found several really amazing places to eat but we also utilized the very spacious kitchen which was full of all the cooking equipment needed to produce home cooked meals when we were tired of eating out. The bedrooms were large and the beds extremely comfortable. We three settled in and spent our three weeks in great comfort. So much so that one of us (me) really didn't want to leave. I still have a bit of a problem believing it is all over. Those three weeks flew by.

We had a wonderful time at Orchard Cottage. The cottage was furnished beautifully - we loved the Scottish touches with tartan/checked curtains and cushions. The beds, bed linen and towels were of the highest quality. The cottage was clean on arrival (believe me some cottages are not!!) and the extensive welcome package was a lovely surprise. The cottage garden was huge which was fantastic for our little dog. The garden was also a sun-trap and it was lovely sitting outside listening to the birds and the sheep over the wall. We would highly recommend this cottage and would return in a second. Thank you.

We just wanted to say what a fantastic stay we had at Orchard Cottage. From the moment we arrived we felt at home and had everything we needed. The welcome basket was a lovely surprise and we very much enjoyed sampling the local wares. So much so that we visited the mill and bought some more muesli. The cottage was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. In a peaceful spot with very comfy beds we all slept extremely well. The location was ideal for visiting the coast and Borders. We’ll back again one day for sure. Thank you and keep up the excellent standard – we have been spoilt for our first dog friendly holiday experience!

We had a wonderful time at Orchard Cottage. It was absolutely beautiful. I just love everything about Crabtree & Crabtree. Ever since we went another cottage in Bamburgh, we’ve been hooked. After spending a week in the Lake District before we got to Cornhill-on-Tweed there is no comparison between the two cottages that we rented. Crabtree & Crabtree wins hands down. Crabtree & Crabtree just think of everything, and everything is quality. Even down to the iron and ironing board. I just love how all the extra are thought about, to the lovely welcome bask to milk in the fridge. It all makes one feel very special. Orchard Cottage was amazing not just because it is a beautiful cottage but because of the time and effort that the housekeeper puts into it. It was so clean with no dust or cobwebs and immaculate clean bathrooms. The bedding is also first class. So high quality that you can feel the luxury next to you while you sleep. Our little dog had a great time too. The garden was beautiful too and so well kept. The grass was actually being cut as we were there. So that’s service for you. I just wish we could’ve stayed longer.

The house was gorgeous with an amazing welcome pack. Everything is well thought out and people were friendly. Will definitely return.

We really enjoyed our stay at Orchard Cottage. It had everything we wanted – ideal location for fishing on Tweed, ample parking, comfortable beds, lovely garden for dog, good quality furnishings, clean, spacious; in fact everything we need for a few days away. The welcome pack was a bonus! We loved it.

I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and thank you for helping to make our New Year so special at Orchard Cottage. The directions and access to the property made our arrival easy. We were pleasantly surprised to find the cottage perfectly decorated and extremely clean. On entering the cottage it was delightful to find the thoughtful arrival pack with necessities like bread and milk and also lovely treats for us to enjoy. The cottage itself is beautiful and the location perfect for a quiet relaxing break. There was an information pack with all we needed to know plus local knowledge for taxis, restaurants and shopping. We had a lovely stay and thanks again for the excellent service provided by your team.
