The Experience

The church sits in the North Tyne Valley with the riverbank just yards away for paddling, salmon fishing and picnics – it’s a grand spot surrounded by dry stone walls and many sheep. A large, flagged hall takes you into the sitting room with Pre-Raphaelite Victorian stained-glass windows and a wood-burner. Lovely to sit here quietly looking at the original floor tiles or head to the top-storey tower with Moroccan-style seating and fabulous views. Comfortable bedrooms have antique furniture and smart bathrooms.

A Neptune kitchen has a massive central island for sharing the cooking, the wooden table is just built for convivial meals, there are more seating areas and a stunning view over the churchyard. Books, games and a big TV mean if you’re stuck indoors you’ll still be in holiday mood.

Through the churchyard and into the Old Rectory garden you have your own fenced garden for barbecues and fun. Or stargazing.

  • Northumberland National Park covers parts of the Hadrian's Wall UNESCO World Heritage Site and the International Dark Skies Park, stretching north to Wooler and skirting the border with Scotland.
  • Hadrian's Wall is Britain’s greatest Roman monument and World Heritage Site. Stretching 73 miles from North Sea to Solway Firth, the Wall is the backbone to Hadrian’s Wall country, with stunning countryside & picturesque villages.
  • Historic Corbridge is another charming market town along the banks of the Tyne. Several castle and country houses are within easy reach of the property.
  • The International Dark Skies Park covers an area of 572 square miles (nearly 1,500 square kilometres), making it Europe’s largest area of protected night sky. Awarded gold tier designation by the International Dark Sky Association in 2013.
  • Completed in AD678, Hexham Abbey is one of the earliest seats of Christianity in England​ and remains at the heart of the town to this day. Discover treasures and artefacts that span the ages, climb the centuries-old Night Stair or explore the Anglo-Saxon Crypt.
