Cosy secret cottage in a beautiful walled garden

From the moment you enter the gates of The Grove Estate you step in to the world of the English country house, with manicured lawns leading down to sprawling woodlands, lakes and open parkland leading down to the River Tyne.

Formerly part of the great estate, the woodlands are now a nature reserve, and deer and badgers, foxes, kites and kestrels are daily visitors to the gardens. Peep out of your curtains at dawn and you are very likely to see them browsing just yards away from the house.

The Bothy is a former gardener’s cottage, part of the beautifully preserved Victorian walled garden with its original glasshouses and orangery. Windows from the living room look across the walled garden, and from the kitchen a door opens out to a terrace and barbecue area, lovely for a leisurely breakfast in the sunshine overlooking the orchard and sweeping views towards the river. The cottage was recently refurbished to incorporate modern insulation and facilities but still retains it original working fireplace and pretty sliding sash windows, (now double glazed) From the cosy living room with log-burning stove, sofas and dining table for 4, a full width staircase leads up to a galleried bedroom with antique brass bedstead and exposed beams to a high tongue and groove wooden ceiling. New central heating, a modern kitchen with integrated appliances and a contemporary bathroom with bathtub and walk-in shower make sure the Bothy offers comfort in all seasons. The perfect romantic winter bolthole for a weekend away!

The cottage is very secluded, and yet only a couple of minutes walk from 4 local pubs and a range of restaurants and shops. There are also very regular bus services nearby that can take you to the shopping experience of The Metrocentre or the nightlife of Newcastle.
Ryton is perfectly situated to get to Hadrian’s Wall country within minutes, and the wide open spaces of Northumberland coast and castles to the North within half an hour. The English Lake District is less than an hour’s drive away, and the Yorkshire Dales to the South and Scottish border country to the North are both within a hour’s drive.
