Dog-friendly cottage with walks from the doorstep

Set in 2/3rds of an acre, conveniently located on the Coast to Coast Route, nestled in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England's highest village, this 3 bedroom stone cottage with beams and 3 fireplaces will charm you and is the perfect base for a walking, cycling or family holiday with your children and pets. Step into the living room with its charming beams and fireplace, walk through to the massive kitchen and dining room with a fully working Aga Rayburn wood stove, dining room table perfect for entertaining and a modern well equipped kitchen with entertaining and cooking in mind. We provide a Tassimo coffee machine, blender, standalone cake mixer, microwave and other kitchen necessities that make your stay a home away from home. Walk through the snug with its charming log burner and look at the horses in the stables at the back. Both snug and living room have flat screen TVs with streaming services such as Netflix, Prime, Disney +. The living room has an XBOX one with games and Xbox Pass available. Plenty of offline board games like Scrabble, Monopoly, puzzles etc for family fun are provided as well. Upstairs the bedrooms are spacious and have pretty views over the surrounding countryside. We have a large family bathroom with claw foot bath and power shower as well as an en suite bathroom. Watch the bunnies play outside, if you are lucky you may spot our red squirrels. Listen to the sound of the owls in the evening as you enjoy the warm evenings in our lovely garden fitted with table and benches, sun loungers, firepit and rattan sofa set. We are in a dark sky area so when the sun sets the stars come out, we have provided a firepit for your use if you want to watch the stars. We also provide a top of the range gas BBQ for your enjoyment. We are close to the Lake District and Northumberland with the famous Hadrian’s wall. Waterfalls abound in our area as does natural beauty.

Awesome Stay!

Had the most amazing Christmas Stay at Cranmore Cottage. Beautiful property in the most amazing area. Great touches from the host with Christmas decorations, snacks and groceries and firewood for the fireplaces. The cottage has three big rooms with a great garden. Would highly recommend a visit for anyone wanting to get out of the city and escape to beautiful, rural England.
Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021
