Fauld Retreat in Northumberland | Cottage With a Hot Tub

About Fauld Retreat

A contemporary bungalow surrounded by undulating countryside 5 miles from Gretna, an historically and culturally important town close to Scotland's border with England. The dog friendly bungalow features an open plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a large enclosed garden with a BBQ hut and easy access to both National Cycle Route 7 and Hadrian's Wall: in short, an ideal base for an active family or group getaway to the countryside!

The property is located at the end of a narrow farm track that sits just off a country lane winding its way through lush green farmland peppered with woodland beneath an endless sky. Its fresh and bright exterior is beautifully complemented by its quirky interior, which is blessed with bold colours and trendy soft furnishings practically arranged across hard flooring.

The open plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a welcoming space filled with comfortable seating options all within a few paw prints of a wood burner and garden views. Three inviting bedrooms an en suite king size bedroom and two double bedrooms are found across the hallway, while a family bathroom (complete with its own TV) is close by.

The outside space enjoys panoramic country views and comprises a lawned area, a hot tub, a BBQ hut for indoor dining and a patio area with seating. National Cycle Route 7 is within 500 metres of the bungalow and is an open invitation for those who love lengthy two wheeled expeditions.

The quaint town of Gretna is just 5 miles from the bungalow, while historic sites and important battlefields surround Carlisle (10 miles) a convenient launchpad for exploring Hadrian's Wall.

Fauld Retreat Reviews

Stephen

Beautiful property. Amazing BBQ hut and wood fired hot tub. Perfect place to unwind in peace and tranquility even in November. Dogs loved the large well enclosed garden.

Michael

We had a lovely stay at this property. It was finished to a very high standard and was very comfortable and well equipped. Warming the water in the hot tub takes more logs and longer than we expected so start early!

Andrew

A great property, lovely garden, kids and dog loved it. In peaceful location only a short drive to facilities. Would definitely recommend

Sharon

Stunning cottage that is situated in a good location with easy access to Carlisle and Gretna. Beautifully decorated and loved the quirky light settings. The hot tub was amazing but needed a bag of wood to get it going properly. The BBQ hut was our favourite and again loved the little extras of tv, cushions and blankets. On our final day the field wRead moree had the company of a herd of cows which was lovely as they were very inquisitive !! Hide

Kerry

Absolutely beautiful place to stay, the accommodation was to very high standards you couldnt fault it. The bbq hut was brilliant we had the odd rainy evening but that did not stop us from having a bbq due to having this facility. The hot tub is a nice touch too specially after a long walk around the lakes, very relaxing!! Definitely would recommendRead more and I would love to return Hide

Haleema

Great location! We were recommended this cottage by holiday cottages as our previous booking was cancelled last minute with a different cottage. The main purpose of our trip was to visit Lake District and in fairness wasnt too long of a journey. The owner was easy to contact and helped us set up the hut and jacuzzi.

Beautifully presented house, very modern and clear attention to detail. The bbq hut was amazing as was the hot tub (although it did take us a while to get the hang of it!) The location was lovely and peaceful with lots of little towns nearby. Highly recommend the crown and thistle at Rockcliffe for a meal out! All in all a fabulous break away and tRead morehe kids loved all the outside space as did the dogs. We will definitely be back! Hide

Housing the most fascinating collection of Birds of Prey in the North East this centre is definitely worth a visit if you are staying in the Kielder Water area. Located in Falstone it's easy to get to and makes a great day out for both families and couples. As well as seeing the amazing birds you can learn all about the captive breeding programme and the excellent work being done there. Some of the highlights of the day might include watching a Falcon stoop down from the skies at over 100mph and admiring the grace of the Eagles, Kites and Hawks.

We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look". Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project. The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish! Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
