If you’re looking to disconnect from day-to-day life, this converted old school house will provide the perfect retreat to do so. Nestled amongst miles of rolling green hills, and surrounded by wild flora and fauna, this home is a hiker's dream, with many walks in all different directions. The home stands at the foot of Cheviot Massif, the highest point in the Northumberland National Park and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This location is also a designated Dark Sky Park, making it the perfect place for stargazing on clear nights. Inside, you’ll find classic countryside cottage design, with painted beam ceilings, comfy furnishings and a gorgeous brickwork fireplace that’s great for gathering around on chilly nights. You can cook up hearty full English breakfasts in the kitchen, and eat all together around the dining table. The home also features a lovely enclosed garden with alfresco seating – a great place for your morning coffee.
