Lovely Grade II listed cottage, on the edge of the sleepy village of Elsdon in the heart of the Cheviots. Quality property in a wonderful peaceful setting. Otterburn 2 miles.
A delightful Grade II listed property, in a wonderful peaceful setting, on the edge of the village of Elsdon. Townfoot Cottage adjoins the owner's farmhouse and was originally an old farm cow byre. Decorated, equipped and furnished to very high standards throughout, the cottage has retained much character with rugs over stone flagged and wooden floors.
The bathroom has an L-shaped shower bath, offering the best of both - a proper shower with glass hinged shower door, and a spacious deep bath for long hot soaks after a days walking. A tall chrome towel radiator keeps the room toasty warm. The cottage enjoys views over Elsdon Burn towards the hills beyond, and is excellently situated for enjoying a variety of walks, including Hadrian's Wall, coastal paths and the Cheviot and Simonside hills.
Boasting lots of activities for the outdoors enthusiasts to enjoy, the area is great for watersports and fishing. Also secure storage is available for those bringing bikes on which to explore this lovely part of the world and enjoy the many cycle routes and mountain biking trails in the area. A warm and comfortable retreat from which to discover this ancient and fascinating area.
Elsdonâs pub, the âBird in Bushâ is only five minutesâ walk away and is right on the village green. It is open most days for food and drink.

Great place to stay!
My family and I stayed for four nights at Townfoot Cottage and loved every minute of it! The cottage is very well equipped and very cosy, with a lovely wood burner to take away the evening chill, very comfortable beds too. Sarah was very welcoming and helpful. The pub in the village is great, and the landlord very welcoming - as was everyone else in the village! Hoping to visit again soon

As always this property is of a very high standard and was an excellent base from which to travel around Northumberland. The welcome received was warm and sincere and help was always available if needed. A property to recommend to anyone.
