Boasting both a National Park and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the form of its coastline, Northumberland has to be one of the most beautiful counties in England.
Its winning combination of both coast and country makes Northumberland one of the best-loved tourist destinations in the UK. Once part of the historic kingdom of Northumbria, much history can be seen across the county even today, from its mighty castles to the remnants of Hadrian’s Wall. There are also many wonderful towns and villages to explore, from Berwick-upon-Tweed, England’s most northerly, to seaside towns such as Bamburgh, which line the pretty coast.
Staying in our Northumberland self-catering cottages offers you the chance to explore this captivating region, where you can enjoy a family-friendly break by the coast at popular places like Seahouses, find some peace and seclusion on a nature-spotting trip to the Farne Islands or enjoy a romantic break away, snuggled up under the stars in the Northumberland Dark Sky Park. Northumberland is also a brilliant destination to visit with your dog, with miles upon miles of walkies to be found along the Northumberland Coast Path, following the Pennine Way or across the peaceful landscape of the national park.
Whatever you choose to do in Northumberland, our Northumberland holiday cottages provide the perfect setting for an unforgettable staycation.
