For a memorable holiday with friends and family, stay at this detached stone property on the scenic Holy Island in Northumberland. This section of land, also called Landisfarne, is cut off from the mainland during high tide, so you can enjoy a feeling of remoteness during your stay. There’s plenty to do on the island itself, whether it’s visiting the peaceful Lindisfarne Priory (0.5 miles) or the majestic Lindisfarne Castle (1 mile). You’ll also find a couple of pubs, independent shops and plenty of wildlife to discover. When the tide is out you can drive over the 3-mile-long causeway and explore the wider area, perhaps heading to Cheswick Sands (9.5 miles) or Berwick-upon-Tweed (13.5 miles).
You’ll enter the property into a stone-flagged passageway leading to a utility room where you can leave your shoes and coats. The attractive farmhouse-style kitchen has exposed beams, a Belfast sink and painted units with wooden worktops, plus an Aga for preparing delicious meals in the high-quality Le Creuset pans provided. At the table in the middle of the room, you can enjoy leisurely breakfasts and tasty coffee made from the Nespresso machine. The utility room serves as a second kitchen, with additional appliances such as the dishwasher. The first lounge has plenty of comfortable seating plus a TV and DVD player, and an open fire for keeping warm in chilly weather. You can also kick back in the second lounge where there’s an L-shaped sofa. A third relaxation area is provided in the conservatory, a lovely and airy space where you’ll find a telescope for observing the dark sky as well as plenty of comfortable seating. There’s a gorgeous downstairs bathroom where you can choose between a relaxing bath and a refreshing shower. Head upstairs and you’ll find the three spacious bedrooms, starting with a king-size room with dual aspect windows, a luxurious chaise longue and a feature fireplace. This room has an en-suite shower room. The second room is a super-king-size with zip-and-link beds that can be made into twins on request at the time of booking. In the third bedroom, you’ll find a king-size bed, a feature fireplace and wooden floorboards. All duvets and pillows are non-allergenic. There’s also an additional shower room.
Outside the property, there’s a large, enclosed garden comprising a decked area and a large lawn. It is south-west-facing and has a table and chairs plus a BBQ, so you can eat outside in fine weather.
