Bavington Hall is situated in the heart of Northumberland, this most beautiful of English regions, and the holiday homes offer the perfect base to explore Northumberland.

Almost every taste is catered for - walking, climbing, sightseeing, local history, golf, fishing, or simply enjoying the view.

There is breathtaking scenery all around - Northumberland National Park is only 20 minutes away, the exquisite coastline can be reached in 45 minutes by road, the border with Scotland only 30 minutes away and Edinburgh is only 1 ½ hours distant.

The landscape of Northumberland is uniquely unspoilt. It offers scenic drives, walks, or casual rambles to all in its thousands of acres of beautiful, often spectacular countryside.

The coastline contains an amazing diversity of fishing villages, islands and some of the finest sandy beaches in the country.

History is all around. There are reminders of the beginnings of Christianity some 1,300 years ago at the aptly named Lindisfarne of Holy Island.

Close by is Hadrian's Wall, the very oupost of the mighty Roman Empire. Built to keep out the Scots, the wall now is carefully protected as a World Heritage Site.

Evidence that Northumberland was disputed territory, fought over by the Scots and the English is everywhere. The reminders of the centuries of warfare - battlefields, massive fortresses to the small turrets known as Pele Towers are seen throughout the area.

The cottages are your ideal holiday base to explore Northumberland.
