Our Cottage
If you are looking for a peaceful setting, amazing countryside, beach walks, historic towns and castles and a cottage full of personal touches to make you feel completely welcomed and at home, then our cosy cottage in pretty Belford may be the one for you.
Our cottage is on the edge of the pretty village of Belford, a traditional coaching town with a wealth of character and a warm welcome for vistitors to the area. Unfortunately we cannot accept pets.
Charlie's Place is centrally heated throughout and the welcoming lounge/diner has an enticing real fire for winter evenings. The kitchen is very well equipped, has a lovely view of the garden and has a gas hob, electric oven, microwave, fridge with freezer compartment and a dish washer.
Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, a double and a single. A travel cot is available.
Wifi is available for our guests.
The large cottage garden offers the best of the day's sun, unbroken views of the countryside beyond, and includes a barbeque and table and chairs for outdoor eating. Help yourself to fresh blackcurrants in summer and to end the day sit back and watch the breathtaking sunsets at the end of the garden from the warmth of the summerhouse!
