Birkshaw Barn
Birkshaw Barn is on the edge of West End Town, Northumberland. It's detached, up a long gravel driveway. The building is a barn conversion. The wood cladding came from our own woods.
It sleeps four. Two bedrooms, both ensuite. One is downstairs. That room and the entrance are wheelchair accessible. Upstairs has a vaulted ceiling. It's a 5 Star property, so things are finished to a high standard. The pictures show it better than I can describe.
The main room is open plan. Kitchen, dining, sitting area. There are big doors that open onto a patio. The view from there is over the valley. It's very quiet. There's a wood burning stove for colder evenings.
For facilities, it has what you'd expect: WiFi, TV, dishwasher, parking. There's an electric vehicle charger. A cot and highchair are there if you need them. Bedding and towels are included. No pets.
The location is good for Hadrian's Wall. You can walk to Vindolanda Roman Fort in about twenty minutes. Sycamore Gap and The Sill are a bit further on. Northumberland National Park starts practically at the gate.
Bardon Mill village is close. It has a shop and a coffee shop. The hotel there does food, including Thai. You can catch a train from there to Newcastle or Carlisle.
Hexham is a twenty minute drive. It's a proper market town with an abbey, shops, pubs. Corbridge is a bit further, nice for a stroll by the river and some coffee.
If you want the coast, it's just over an hour to places like Tynemouth or Bamburgh. Golf at Close House is about twenty five minutes away. Hexham Racecourse is twenty minutes.
