Typically Northumbrian, this one-bedroom cottage is picture perfect. In the living/bedroom area, you’ll find beautiful original features and gorgeous little touches.

The comfy, king size bed and flat screen TV give a boutique hotel feel to the bedroom/living space. There is also ample storage space in the chest of drawers and a dining table area.

Following on from the main hub of the home is the kitchen. The cosy space has everything you could need for your stay, including a fridge, kettle, oven and toaster, ideal for making a welcoming morning cuppa or preparing a tasty meal for two.

The bathroom is traditional yet contemporary. It features a bathtub and overhead shower, and the room is completed with a wash basin and WC.

Outside, there is a spacious garden. West facing, you can enjoy peaceful mornings and relaxed evenings.

The area

Nestled in the heart of the Cheviot Hills, Kirknewton is a peaceful rural village offering a true escape into Northumberland’s unspoiled countryside. Surrounded by rolling hills, ancient woodlands, and winding rivers, the area is a haven for walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers alike.

Just a short distance from the historic market town of Wooler, Kirknewton provides easy access to the stunning Northumberland National Park, the Pennine Way, and the College Valley - one of the UK’s most tranquil and scenic landscapes. You’ll also find a rich history nearby, with ancient hillforts, Roman sites, and the dramatic ruins of Chillingham Castle all within reach.

Whether you're seeking outdoor adventure or a quiet retreat, this picturesque village is the perfect base for exploring Northumberland’s wild beauty.

Despite its secluded charm, Kirknewton is well connected for day trips to Alnwick Castle, Holy Island (Lindisfarne), and the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The nearest train station to Kirknewton can be found in Alnmouth, 27 miles away from Bell Cottage by road. Alnmouth Train Station has direct services operating to locations across the UK including Edinburgh, Leeds, London and Plymouth.

One bus route operates in Kirknewton. Hop on the 266 to visit Berwick-upon-Tweed and Wooler.

“Lovely cottage in a beautiful location”

“We have stayed at Bell Cottage twice before ( prior to Host and Stay becoming agents)- it's been done up really nicely and the bed was super comfy! Love the area and caught up with the neighbours ( although sadly some had moved on and cottages were empty). Great for exploring Northumberland and for beautiful walks from your doorstep! We were fine but could see a time when the bath would be a challenge as so tall to climb into to shower! Also, the garden, although it has beautiful views, needs attention and a proper sitting out area. We had a lovely stay and wish it had been for longer!”
