Description
Enjoying a gloriously peaceful setting at the northern edge of Kielder Water in the Northumberland National Park, this very comfortable timber lodge boasts wonderful views and superb walking, cycling, fishing, sailing, water skiing and bird watching on the doorstep. Set alongside other holiday properties, it is surrounded by the largest natural woodland in the UK, a haven for wildlife – red squirrels, deer and woodpeckers can be spotted from the lodge verandas. All the myriad delights of the region as well as the historic castles and towns of the Scottish Borders are within easy reach. There are miles upon miles of footpaths and cycle ways to explore in and around the fantastic Kielder Forest Park. Mountain bikes can be hired to cycle any of the 8 designated trails on offer here. It also has an impressive Observatory where you can look out at the stars from one of the best places in the UK to observe the far away galaxies. Water activities can be enjoyed on the largest man-made lake in northern Europe - everything from sailing, canoeing and water skiing all provided by professional instructors. When it comes to eating out you wont be disappointed. The area in and around the Forest park contains a great selection of pubs, restaurants and tea rooms whilst the glorious panoramic vistas provide numerous picnicking spots when the weather suits. Kielder Castle and shop/post office are 1 mile, and a pub serving food is a half mile stroll.

Reviews
It is the ideal place to get away from it all, the hot tub under the stars in the snow was amazing.
Mrs B, Cramlington, Northumberland
30 December 2010
Our holiday was fantastic. We relaxed, watched a shooting star from the hot tub, seen all kinds of wildlife, beautiful scenery, beautiful accommodation, well set out and was tip-top clean, not overlooked by anybody so had a really relaxing time. Would definitely go back.

Taking a break in one of our holiday cottages in Northumberland gives you the ideal opportunity to discover one of England’s most unspoilt regions, where you can still find wilderness areas, virtually untouched by human hand. The peaceful landscapes of the Northumberland National Park and the Cheviot Hills are a paradise for nature lovers. There are also some fantastic cliff paths and quiet beaches to explore on the coast. And there’s Kielder Water, England’s largest man-made lake. Set in beautiful countryside, this is a magnet for watersports enthusiasts of all kinds.
There is a chain of massive castles on the coast waiting for you to discover on one of our Northumberland cottage holidays. Alnwick Castle, dubbed the “Windsor of the North” boasts an impressive renaissance interior containing a wonderful art collection, as well as stunning gardens. The castle at Warkworth is also very well-preserved, while Bamburgh Castle, the seat of the old Kings of Northumbria, has a fantastic location right on the seashore. Don’t miss a trip to Lindisfarne, birthplace of English Christianity, or to Hadrian’s Wall, which runs through the county. And for great shopping and nightlife, and a unique atmosphere, head to Newcastle.
