Newonstead Bothy is the ideal relaxing hideaway for a well-deserved holiday or short break, where you can completely switch off and unwind. With lovely light and airy rooms and far-reaching country views, this semi-detached barn conversion is a wonderful place to stay in. On cool evenings you have the marvellous wood burner to curl up in front of.

Set on the owner’s upland hill farm, and slightly off the beaten track, it’s idyllic for couples wishing to cycle and walk, with or without a dog. Whilst the location is set in the countryside, you really only are a couple of miles from the main road network so exploring this beautiful county is easy from Newonstead Bothy. The well-equipped kitchen has seating for four, just in case you want to invite friends over, and there is a fabulous large wall map of the county so you can plan all your day trips. On entering to the property, there is a large porch for storing all your outdoor equipment and outside is a storage area for bicycles. The owners provide a welcome tea tray and have added maps which shows which fields and walks you can have access too. In spring the owners are happy to show you the lambs and answer any of your questions.

The wonderful National Trust Property of Wallington Hall and Gardens is only 5 miles away. Matfen Hall, Spa and Golf Centre is only 10 miles, and you can drive down to Corbridge in 20 minutes. This is a lovely old Roman town with plenty of lovely pubs and cafés. The pick-your-own fruit farm and café is only half an hour for you to enjoy in summer. You really can travel all over the county from Newonstead Bothy, then come home and relax in this lovely location.



The property is located on a working farm.

A very out of the way cottage perfect for a total break from the hussel and bussell of modern life.

A very out of the way cottage perfect for a total break from the hussel and bussell of modern life. Alex was perfect host approachable if needed. We had small issue on arrival but was sorted without fuss. Because of its rural location there are plenty of walks but shops /pubs are a bit of a distance away but still a pleasant place to stay

The cottage was very clean, finished and furnished to a high standard.

The cottage was very clean, finished and furnished to a high standard. It is very comfortable and well equipped, the shower in particular is impressive. The owner was very welcoming and left us some bread and milk etc. A couple of evenings were a little chilly so the wood burner and supply of logs was much appreciated. However, the cottage is very isolated and whilst this didn't bother us some might find it too remote. It is a good drive to anywhere of significance and some of the roads can be a little tricky. It is perfect for those wanting to be away from everything, or prepared to drive to get shopping etc.

The bothy was excellent, equipped to a very high standard with great attention to detail, immaculately clean and comfortable. The enclosed garden was brilliant for our dog.Alex and Rupert were very welcoming, great hosts, they explained clearly which fields we could use and let our dog run freely.We had a very relaxing stay and cannot recommend it highly enough.
