Sweet and characterful, rest will come easily here with plenty of fresh country air which will lift mind, body and spirit.
Sleeping two, inside you’ll find an open plan studio living space with a raised mezzanine floor and king size bed. With its double height aspect, the overall look has bags of character, with a fresh, bright scheme in duck egg blue with original beams and rustic touches.
A roaring wood burner will keep things wonderfully toasty when when the nights draw in, or throw open the door in summer and head to the barn downstairs where the owner is happy to share her art studio space and guests can explore their creative side.
Out and about, there's a large shared garden and the owners’ grow their own fruit and vegetables which guests are welcome to make use of when in season.
Add to the mix a small herd of Dexter rare-breed cows and some lively egg-laying hens and there’s always something to bring a welcome smile to your day.

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.
