The Hidden Cottage

The Hidden Cottage is a two-bedroom property sleeping four, positioned on a quiet square in Morpeth's heart. Upstairs are two bedrooms—one with a zip-and-link bed that converts to singles on request, plus a sofa bed, the other with a single—and a shower room. Downstairs, an open-plan living area with dining space flows into a kitchen equipped for real cooking: electric oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave and washing machine. The sitting room has a Freeview TV and Amazon Firestick, and a decorative electric stove stands in the cottage's original range. Wi-Fi, electricity, bed linen and towels are all covered.

Outside, a south-facing garden combines lawn and patio with furniture, and there's secure bike storage if you arrive on two wheels. Parking is available free at a public car park 200 yards away. The cottage sits yards from Morpeth's main streets, where independent and chain shops, pubs and restaurants cluster alongside market stalls on trading days. The River Wansbeck runs through the town, with Carlisle Park immediately accessible—notable for its year-round plantings and a statue of suffragette Emily Davison. The park extends into recreational space with bowling greens, a skate park, play area and paddling pool. No smoking inside.
