Rosebud
Hetton Hall, nr Belford
Don’t be fooled too much by the traditional cottage name, Rosebud.
Yes, it is full of English rose charm, but this holiday home packs designer pieces, bold contemporary colours and a relaxed luxury ambience into its lovely old Northumberland stone cottage shell – add in the roses in the garden for that touch of romance that every old cottage deserves, and we have a property with real up-to-the-minute appeal. Lots of interesting homely touches such as local Northumberland Tartan accessories, complete the look.
Located close to the Northumberland National Park with its unique dark sky status and just 20 minutes drive from Bamburgh and the coast, this two-bedroom cottage has generous spaces for a family of four or a couple looking to unwind and explore the region. There are countryside views and walks all around, including the popular St Cuthbert’s Way walk, and close by are the villages of Chatton with its gastro pub and Belford with its farm shop and deli.

Location
Part of the original farm steading for the neighbouring Grade II listed Hetton Hall, Rosebud is surrounded by open countryside but set within the small hamlet of fellow converted farm buildings. From the site, you have lovely views of the Cheviot hills within the Northumberland National Park to the west. Rosebud is very close to the popular St Cuthbert’s Way walk, with St Cuthbert’s Cave being very close by. The villages of Belford and Chatton are a few minutes away by car and the coastal centres of Bamburgh and Seahouses are a 15-20 minute drive away.

The front garden is a little steep but there is a solid handrail to the steps. Those of limited mobility can enter via a flat area to the rear of the property – a car can be driven round to this entrance but not parked there.
