Mobility Description:
The Farmhouse dates from the 18th Century which was then extended and altered in the first half of the 19th century probably round about 1840. It may not be practicable to make wholesale changes to our access as this would be detrimental to the character of the property. However we do intend to make our house as accessible as we can in order that as many people as possible can enjoy a stay in our wonderful home in Northumberland National Park. Further details can be found on our website. The Lodge is purpose built and include a accessible ground floor room. Details can be found in the relevant access statements and we are happy to discuss requirements prior to any bookings / visits.
