Ashleigh House

Families with young children and couples will find Ashleigh House works well as a base for exploring Northumberland. The two-bedroom cottage sleeps four: one double and two singles upstairs, with a bathroom and separate toilet on the ground floor. One dog stays free. The whole property is yours alone, and essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen and Wi-Fi are included. A travel cot and highchair are available if needed.

The layout spreads across two floors with some internal steps between rooms—the stairs to the first floor are steep and have a handrail. The ground floor holds a living room with woodburner and Freeview, a separate dining room, and a second sitting room. The kitchen is equipped for proper cooking: electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and microwave. Out back, a private enclosed garden has decking and seating, a BBQ and chiminea for evenings. There's space for one car and a bike store.

Belford sits in the heart of Northumberland countryside, close enough to the Blue Bell Hotel and within reach of coastal attractions. The village itself has facilities nearby.
