Townfoot Cottage: Holiday Cottage in Northumberland National Park

Experience Townfoot Cottage's Historic Charm

Welcome to Townfoot Cottage, a Grade II listed holiday cottage nestled on the outskirts of Elsdon village, just two miles from Otterburn in the scenic Northumberland National Park. This delightful cottage accommodates up to five guests with two bedrooms—one double room and a family room with three single beds—alongside a family bathroom. The well-equipped kitchen with a dining area, and a cosy sitting room featuring a multi-fuel stove, make Townfoot Cottage a perfect retreat. Enjoy the front garden with off-road parking and a private, sheltered rear garden with furniture and a BBQ, ideal for family gatherings. A well-behaved dog is welcome to join your stay.

Explore Northumberland from a Comfortable Base

Adjoining the owner's farmhouse, Townfoot Cottage was once an old farm cow byre, now transformed into a charming holiday cottage in Northumberland National Park. Decorated and furnished to high standards, the cottage retains its unique character with rugs over stone-flagged and wooden floors. The modern bathroom features an L-shaped shower bath, providing both a proper shower and a deep bath for relaxation. Enjoy views over Elsdon Burn towards the hills, making it the perfect location for exploring nearby trails such as Hadrian's Wall, coastal paths, and the Cheviot and Simonside hills. Outdoor enthusiasts can indulge in watersports, fishing, and cycling, with secure storage for bikes available.

Discover Elsdon's Historic and Natural Beauty

Set in a peaceful hollow surrounded by fells, woodland, and moorland, the village of Elsdon offers a rich historical tapestry and natural beauty. Dominated by the fortified Pele Tower, Elsdon features many listed sites and a charming village green. Enjoy a meal or drink at the 'Bird in Bush' pub, just a five-minute walk from the cottage, exuding an old-world atmosphere since the 18th century. The market town of Rothbury, 10 miles away, offers a variety of shops, while the surrounding area offers plenty to explore, including the Coast to Coast Walk and the Pennine Way. Cyclists can take advantage of the National Cycle Route that runs nearby.
