Beautiful Northumberland retreat with a cosy log burner and complimentary access to Matfen Hall’s spa and pool.
Prepare to be charmed by The Henson, a beautifully designed split-level hayloft that blends contemporary elegance with rustic character. Set within a peaceful estate near Hexham, this retreat is one of eight luxury cottages and offers a stylish countryside escape for up to four guests. With striking architectural features, soaring wood beam ceilings and a tranquil colour palette, it’s a place that instantly soothes and invites you to unwind.
Step inside and discover two spacious king-sized bedrooms, each complete with a luxurious en-suite bathroom where high-end fixtures and finishes add a spa-like touch. Every detail is designed for privacy and comfort, making it just as perfect for families as for two couples sharing.
On the first floor, the open-plan living space is the heart of the home. Gather around the cosy log burner in the lounge, sink into the sofas for a film night on the Smart TV, or cook up feasts in the fully-equipped kitchen with its sleek, modern appliances. The six-seater dining table makes long, laughter-filled dinners a must, while the exposed wood beams above add a rustic charm to the sophisticated interiors.
Beyond your doorstep, the estate grounds invite you to wander and unwind, but perhaps the biggest perk of all is that guests enjoy complimentary access to Matfen Hall’s spa and pool just 11 miles away. Golfers will relish the chance to play on one of Golf World’s Top 100 courses, while those seeking downtime can indulge in thermal suites or a rejuvenating treatment.
When it’s time to explore, Northumberland is brimming with treasures. From the dramatic landscapes of Hadrian’s Wall and the Roman remains at Vindolanda, to Hexham’s cultural gems and the sweeping beaches of the coast, you’ll find adventure at every turn. Whether you’re here to relax or roam, The Henson provides a stylish, restorative base for an unforgettable stay.
