In keeping with the natural beauty of the Northumberland setting, Little Hay is designed with fresh, natural tones and modern flourishes that combine to make a luxurious loft space spread over two floors and sleeping up to four guests.
The main living area is spread over the first floor, where arched ceilings and sweeping views across the courtyard invite you in to relax and unwind on the comfortable sofas in front of a log-burning stove. This area is perfect for entertaining with an open plan kitchen and dining area, complete with breakfast island and six-seater farmhouse style table to choose from for your evening meals. Catering is made easy with all you will need from kettle to wall mounted ovens in a stylish marble-topped kitchen, but if you wanted to take the day off then why not order some chef prepped ready meals from the hotel to warm up at home? Or if dining out is your preference, you can head over to the hotel restaurant for breakfast lunch, afternoon tea or dinner! Little Hay brings the chic glamour, yet comfort and convenience of a self-catered holiday with all the added bonuses of sharing the grounds with a boutique hotel.
The sleeping accommodation in the house is found on the ground floor, and is split into two tastefully decorated double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathroom. Crisp white linens, soft pillows and complimentary toiletries mean all you need to worry about it enjoying your morning lie-in within this peaceful countryside setting.
Right in the heart of the beautiful rolling hills and breath-taking scenery of Northumberland the Warwick Hall estate comes complete with relaxing spa, swimming pool and restaurants offering afternoon teas to enjoy as a sumptuous treat after a busy day trekking and exploring. With Hadrian’s Wall and Chester’s Roman fort right on your doorstep, you are perfectly located to visit some of the best historic sites the UK has to offer.
In the heart of Northumberland, this striking estate is in easy reach of the bustling shops, museums, sporting arenas and eateries of Newcastle Upon Tyne, all just half an hour’s drive away, but the countryside location is a million miles from the bright lights, offering rugged natural beauty, historic landmarks and quaint market towns aplenty.
For those looking to indulge in the area’s rich history a trip to Chester’s Roman Fort offers the chance to explore an outpost set alongside the 83 miles of Hadrian’s Wall. Dating back to AD 123, this Roman cavalry fort has beautifully preserved roman baths, steam room and officer’s quarters to discover, all set in the rugged beauty of Northumberland’s rolling hills. Set yourself a challenge to walk or cycle the length of the wall or book a local guide to discover facts and information about the arduous process of building and maintaining the historic site.
Take a drive to the thriving market town of Hexham, and make sure you stop off at the historic Hexham Abbey. Dating back to AD674, this historic structure houses hands on exhibits and experiences that will suit all ages. Whilst in Hexham, don’t miss a visit to the Hexham Gaol, now a museum with a range of exhibits from archaeology to costumes.
A pretty walk to Hareshaw Linn (12 miles) will take you over six bridges and lead you to a striking 9m waterfall. Set within a wildlife rich ancient woodland, this is a great place for a picnic and photo opportunity. Look out for woodpeckers, red squirrels and bats!
Travel further afield for a day trip to the astounding Alnwick Castle. Stroll amongst the courtyards and archways that featured dominantly in the first two Harry Potter films as the location for Hogwarts. Right next to the castle are the beautiful Alnwick Gardens, a 12-acre landscaped garden with its grand tiered water feature, the Grand Cascade, exotic plant life and impressive wooden treehouse restaurant.
Keen golfers will be tempted for a round at Matfen Park, a Championship Northumberland course hosted by Warwick Hall’s sister estate. Set in an idyllic landscape you can try a round or visit the driving range and Par-3 area. If golfing isn’t your thing then contact the estate’s reception to arrange a hunting and shooting trip, accommodating all levels and tailored to the individual’s taste. Or if you’d like to try your hand at River Fishing, then local expert, James Stokoe offers guided fishing days along the stunning warden stretches of the river.
