Helen “Apartment was perfect for our needs, having two children, four and one year old.”
Travel cot and highchair supplied on request and the open plan living/dining area was very spacious and comfortable. Even though outside temperature was minus 4, we were very warm, extra heaters available to support the central heating system as required. Kitchen well equipped and everything clean and tidy. Clear information supplied in advance regarding key pick up and the additional information supplied about the local area was very helpful.

The property
Well-positioned in the charming village of Otterburn on the outskirts of the Northumberland National Park, discover this neatly-presented first-floor apartment, Butterchurn Apartment.
Benefitting from an open-plan living space, woodburning stove and close access to the local amenities, Butterchurn Apartment welcomes six guests to enjoy a tranquil escape to Northumberland.
After unloading in the off-road parking space, ascend the staircase to your new dwelling, entering to be impressed by an inviting living area where you and your loved ones can congregate and debrief after a day of adventures.
In the kitchen, get to grips with a great array of appliances before cooking up a storm for the whole family, to be enjoyed at the dining table; alternatively, if the weather permits, make use of a shared rear garden to delight in an alfresco affair.
When the evening grows cooler, take refuge in the charming sitting area and cosy up in front of the roaring woodburning stove, ready to click on the TV and catch up on your favourite shows.
If you’re seeking some much-needed R&R, slope off to the sleek bathroom and treat yourself to a long soak or warm shower before opting for either a super-king-size, king-size or twin to rest your head in.
In the morning, embark on a scenic stroll along the River Rede, stopping off at the nearby Percy’s Cross, before ending back in Otterburn to refuel with a hearty pub lunch at William de Percy or Otterburn Castle Country House Hotel.
Venturing into the Northumberland National Park, uncover the hidden gems of Hareshaw Linn Waterfall, Kielder Water Bird of Prey Centre, Black Middens Bastle House and Vindolanda, an excavated Roman village and fort, guaranteed to excite the history buffs amongst you!
For plenty of shopping and eating opportunities, spend the day in the bustling city of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, where you’ll find the Discovery Centre, Newcastle Castle, Tyne Bridge and the iconic Angel of the North.
However you choose to while away the days in Northumberland, do it from the superb base of Butterchurn Apartment.

About the location
OTTERBURN
Bellingham 7 miles; Alnwick 29 miles.
The delightful village of Otterburn, once the site of the famous 1388 victory of the Scots over the English, nestles close to the banks of the River Rede, between the hills and moors overlooking the North Tyne Valley. It offers excellent walking opportunities and is on a variety of popular routes for cyclists. Hadrian's Wall and the beautiful Kielder Forest and Waters are close by, providing fantastic fishing, horse riding and nature watching, amidst superb, tranquil countryside. Otterburn is the former home of a busy weaving industry, and the world famous Otterburn Mill marks the village's historic past. Nearby Bellingham, built predominantly from local stone and slate, houses a handful of pubs, shops and tea rooms and a highly regarded 18 hole golf course. Visit the nearby, majestic, stately homes of Wallington Hall and Cragside, or the historic market town of Alnwick, with its stunning castle and gardens, a mere 40 minute drive. Otterburn is a superb location for a relaxing holiday, any time of year.
