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.
