Set beside tranquil woodland, Bolams Lodge offers a peaceful countryside retreat close to the historic border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Ideally placed for exploring Northumberland’s spectacular coastline, guests can enjoy the sweeping sands of Cheswick and nearby Cocklawburn Beach. The tidal causeway to Holy Island, with its priory and iconic castle, lies just a short drive away, as does the dramatic beach and castle at Bamburgh. Perfect for couples and small families seeking a laid-back coastal break, this single-storey cottage sleeps four and offers easy access to a range of local attractions. The nearby village of Haggerston offers a cosy pub, a small shop, and a golf course.
Inside, the cottage has a warm and homely feel. The dual-aspect lounge features a country-style dresser, comfy seating, a TV, and a striking red brick fireplace with an open fire – ideal for cosy evenings in after days out exploring. The bright kitchen also enjoys dual-aspect views over the garden and surrounding countryside, and is fully equipped with an electric cooker and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and washing machine. A dining table seats four comfortably for relaxed meals together. There are two well-presented bedrooms: one spacious double, and one twin with a dressing table and seating area – ideal for children or adults alike. The family bathroom includes a shower over the bath and a WC.
Outside, the enclosed garden offers a generous lawn bordered by hedges, along with a patio area and bench seating – perfect for unwinding in the sunshine or enjoying a peaceful morning coffee. Children will love having space to play, and a small gate at the bottom of the garden leads directly into the woodland, where there’s a stream and more to explore. With nature on the doorstep, it’s also a great spot for spotting local wildlife. Private parking is available for two cars.
