Sitting directly on the path of Hadrian’s Wall, this sweet two bedroom, two bathroom property is a little slice of Northumbrian charm, with plenty of old-school character thrown in.

With its proud heritage and rich natural landscape, The Granary sits in a prime location near Matfen with fantastic views across rolling farmland to the hills beyond.

Tenderly restored using original Northumbrian stone, the charming exterior gives way to a warm, inviting interior which is a perfect nest for two, or a lovely haven for four.

Step into an open plan living space that feels immediately toasty, benefitting from underfloor heating supplied by an efficient ground source heat pump and a wood burning stove. The interior is decorated in soft hues and warming tweeds for a contemporary country twist and the well-equipped kitchen has that all-important wine cooler and relaxed informal dining space. When the temperature starts to rise, a door leads into the large enclosed lawned garden with plenty of space for children or dogs.

Upstairs, the two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms are impeccable and comfortable with high beamed ceilings which add an open, lofty feel.

For families or groups wishing to holiday together, the adjoining Gingan (sleeps 8) can be let in conjunction with The Granary offering accommodation for up to 12 guests. Aydon Castle Cottage sleeping 4 sits under the same ownership.

There is a shared games room with a ping pong table and storage for bikes and outdoor gear adding a versatile space for wet-weather days, teenagers, or some evening entertainment for all.

The Little Things We Love

The original beams give the bedrooms a wonderfully lofty but cosy feel. Sip your morning coffee in peaceful surrounds before setting off to explore.

Don't take our word for it...

We had a lovely week at The Granary. The cottage has been beautifully renovated with high quality fixtures and fittings and well equipped. It's obvious a lot of thought went into the project and also the attached Gingan. It definitely met the exacting standards of a Crabtree and Crabtree property (and we've stayed at a few now). We were delighted with the cottage. We also had afternoon tea and dinner at the hotel, a lovely experience and everyone we came into contact with was very warm and welcoming.

Don't take our word for it...

Beautiful cottage. Spotlessly clean - thank you housekeeper. We enjoyed Housesteads, Hexham, the Conservatory Bistro and afternoon tea in The Library - both at Matfen Hall which is friendly and welcoming.
Mr & Mrs Dickins, 2nd April 2024

Don't take our word for it...

A beautifully renovated cottage with high quality fittings and very comfortable/ We enjoyed the cosy wood burner. We loved the coffee at the little cafe in Matfen, coffee, lunch & cake at The Larder in Corbridge (and their cheeses) and also afternoon tea and a scrumptious meal at Matfen Hall Hotel. We would love to return.
Mr & Mrs Green, 2nd April 2024

Don't take our word for it...

Fantastic weeks stay in this amazing cottage along with family in The Gingan next door. Everything has been thought of. The food at the Angel in Corbridge is very good. We definitely be back!
