Brimming with character on the edge of the National Park, East Cottage is in an ideal location for exploring the many visitor attractions throughout this glorious county. Only two miles from the pretty market town of Rothbury with its own private stretch of salmon and trout fishing (by arrangement and seasonal), East Cottage is set on a small historical site featuring the only agricultural weighbridge left in the UK today and a Grade II* listed agricultural building of National Importance.
The property was built by Lord Armstrong of Cragside in the 1880s as part of his Cragside Estate to show off his model farm. Situated next door to the National Trust property itself, within easy driving and walking distance, the cottage boasts eco-friendly features and is powered by a wood burning stove and an Esse Range in the kitchen as well as a traditional electric oven. With an established garden to the side with lovely views, East Cottage is an idyllic location for families or friends and we are happy for you to bring your dog too!
Hand made furnishings: The blinds, bedcovers and curtains are all handmade at East Cottage, with the cushions by local cushion maker Velvet Thistle. Fabrics are mainly William Morris or Vanessa Arbuthnot.
