About Blacksmiths Shop

Blacksmiths Shop is a converted former blacksmith's workshop on a traditional working farm at High Staward in Northumberland. The property features a private hot tub on the patio where you can soak while taking in countryside views across the rolling hills. Arched patio doors lead into a space that retains original beams and authentic details from its working past.

The North Pennines landscape surrounds this rural retreat. Walking routes and cycling tracks cross the nearby hills. You're positioned perfectly for exploring Hadrian's Wall country and the Roman sites that dot this historic region.

Two ground floor bedrooms sleep four guests. The king-size room offers comfortable sleeping space. The twin zip and link converts to a super-king on request. A ground floor shower room with WC serves both bedrooms. The country cottage-style kitchen includes an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and tumble dryer. A wood-burning stove warms the lounge which has a large corner sofa and wall-mounted Smart TV. Underfloor heating runs throughout.

Housesteads Roman Fort sits 8.4 miles away (18 minutes). Vindolanda lies 6.2 miles distant (15 minutes). Hexham's historic market town is 9.1 miles away (20 minutes). Hadrian's Wall sections are 7.5 miles away (17 minutes).

Is Blacksmiths Shop Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families

The property works well for families with older children who enjoy outdoor activities and history. Walking routes and cycling tracks start from the doorstep. Housesteads and Vindolanda Roman forts provide educational days out exploring ancient history. The wood-burning stove and hot tub add appeal after active days. However, the working farm location requires supervision and awareness.

For Couples

Couples get complete privacy on this working farm retreat. The hot tub on the private patio creates romantic evenings under Northumberland skies. Light the wood-burning stove and settle on the corner sofa for cosy nights in. Underfloor heating keeps the space warm throughout. Walk sections of Hadrian's Wall together or explore Roman forts before returning to soak tired muscles.

Pet Friendly

Blacksmiths Shop does not accept dogs or any other pets. The property operates a strict no-pets policy for all bookings. This is likely due to the working farm location at High Staward. Guests wanting to bring dogs should look at alternative properties in the area that welcome pets and have appropriate outdoor space for animals.

Definitely planning to return soon!
