Positioned within the picturesque village of Corbridge, Northumberland, The Gingan and The Granary are two thoughtfully restored properties that can accommodate up to 12 guests across six bedrooms. Positioned directly on the historic path of Hadrian’s Wall, this area is rich in cultural heritage and offers a plethora of walking and biking trails, ideal for outdoor enthusiasts eager to explore the stunning landscapes. While the two properties are adjacent, they do not feature any interconnecting doors, ensuring privacy for each group or family staying there.
The Gingan boasts spacious accommodations spread over two floors, featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two en-suites. The property is designed to cater to both families and groups, with a versatile living area that includes a ground floor bedroom and bathroom. The eco-friendly heating system, powered by a ground source heat pump and complemented by underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove, ensures a cozy atmosphere regardless of the weather. The elegant dining area can comfortably seat up to 12 guests, making it perfect for gatherings, and the open-plan kitchen is equipped with high-quality appliances and granite work surfaces, leading to a lovely patio and enclosed garden.
The Granary, situated next door, offers a similarly inviting ambiance with an open-plan living space that is both warm and welcoming, thanks to underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove. Decorated in soft hues and contemporary country styles, the kitchen features essential amenities, including a wine cooler, and provides a relaxed dining area. The property opens up to a large enclosed garden, ideal for children and pets. Upstairs, two en-suite bedrooms with high beamed ceilings create a spacious and comfortable retreat, while a games room with a ping pong table adds an element of fun for guests of all ages.
Both properties are designed with families and pets in mind, allowing two dogs in each cottage for an additional fee. However, pets are restricted from certain areas to maintain cleanliness and comfort. Ample private parking is available, and the properties are equipped with modern amenities, including Wi-Fi and renewable heating systems. For those seeking additional accommodation, Aydon Castle Cottage, which shares the same ownership, offers a similar style. The surrounding area is rich in attractions, including historic castles and opportunities for outdoor activities such as cycling, hiking, and golfing, making this location a perfect getaway for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.
