Property Description
"A collection of fine cottages.. set within the grounds of a stunning Victorian Gothic-revival stately home.."
Dating back to 1703, this large secluded country hall is set in 8 acres of land, enjoying a walled garden, croquet lawn and woodland for exploring. Together with the twelve stone-built cottages, it lies in a location sure to delight each generation of visitors - set in the heart of Northumberland, close to the rolling hills and breathtaking coastline. The grounds around the hall lead straight to public footpaths with wonderful local walks starting at the door.
Set inland midway between Beadnell and Seahouses, it is perfectly located for exploring the magnificent Heritage coastline with lovely coastal walks. Alnwick, with its majestic castle (used in Harry Potter film), cobbled streets filled with inns, restaurants and shops is well worth a visit, whilst the romantic ruins of Dunstanburgh and Warkworth Castle are only a short drive away. Bamburgh (5 miles) is dominated by its fortress castle and has a much-photographed wide sandy beach. Seahouses, a thriving seaside village with a golden beach and little harbour, is a must for tasty fish and chips or kippers. From here a wildlife boat trip can be taken to the Farne Islands to visit the puffins and other seabirds, or visitors can explore Holy Island when the tide is out by driving over the man-made causeway. Golf, fishing and many AONB surround Ellingham. The Hall lies 26 miles from the Borders of Scotland and only 45 miles from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and is easily accessible from the A1. The quiet, picturesque village with friendly pub 600 yards is the ideal retreat in any season. Shop 5 miles.
