The perfect rural retreat for a group of six seeking to explore the countryside of Northumberland, The Woodside makes a beautiful abode at any time of year. All on the ground floor, internally you can find a wonderful social space from which to spend quality time with your loved ones, while the exterior boasts equal wonders and beautiful views. Take a seat on one of the stylish leather sofas with your loved ones amidst, the Smart TV providing your entertainment for the evening, or bring a board game from home and sit around the rustic wooden dining table for hours of family fun. The contemporary-style kitchen is a spacious spot where you can enjoy making delicious meals for your loved ones, with plenty of room for little helpers to get involved in the preparation too while the rest of the group watch on at the elegant breakfast bar. Take your conversations out onto the decking in the summer months, where you can sit beneath the sun and dine alfresco, or soak in your surroundings from the wonder of the hot tub to end each evening perfectly. Retreat to one of the three charming bedrooms to rest your head, taking your pick from the master king-size boasting both a Smart TV and en-suite shower room, this room is a true marvel, while the further two bedrooms served by the sparking family bathroom consist of a further king-size and a twin, also exuding elegance and ample storage space for your personal belongings too! The Woodside is a wonderful choice for a family break to Northumberland.

Chris
The area was stunning with so many places to visit. The only issue we had was there were no instructions for any of the appliances. So it was difficult to use them. Having said that we had a great holiday and will definitely return one day to the area.

We had a lovely stay, but the washing machine door would not open and we had 2 items of clothing. How can I arrange to get these back?
