Etal 2.6 miles. Set in the Northumberland countryside in the village of Crookham is Crookham Dairy, a traditional, sandstone cottage, boasting plenty of space for a family break. With front and rear gardens, open fires and a sought-after games room, this Northumberland holiday home welcomes six guests and two furry friends to enjoy a break on a non-working farm. The property was built in the early 20th century, having been a former dairy farm with a butchers, but is now the most inviting home, any time of year. Inside, a bespoke kitchen, well-equipped with all you need to cater to your culinary needs invites you to cook up a storm, while the dining room with seating for six and a toasty open fire is where you can gather to enjoy your feast. From here, you can find the sitting room, home to another open fire to cosy up near, along with a Smart TV for your evening entertainment. Next is the games room, located in the old butchers’ shop and keeping with the character of the property, with table tennis and table football to keep you occupied and handy laundry facilities. Completing the ground floor is a sleek shower room, ideal for freshening up after a day of exploring, while the first floor houses a bathroom for when you need a longer soak in the bath. Choose from a zip/link super-king-size for flexibility, a king-size, or a twin on the first floor when it is time to rest your head for the night. Outside, the rear courtyard has the ideal furniture setup for some alfresco meals, or simply admire the front garden and countryside views from the bench with a cup of coffee. Crookham and the surrounding area of Northumberland is packed with adventure, with Etal, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Bamburgh and more to explore. Take a trip to Etal, a picturesque village with a 13th-century castle, popular children’s railway, a winding river and a family-friendly pub, the Black Bull. From here, you can travel to Berwick-upon-Tweed, a walled town full of history and bustling cafés, before arriving at Bamburgh, home to one of the most iconic castles in the country, with pristine sand dunes and welcoming pubs overlooking the sea. Whether you’re looking for a unique day out, family fun, or a romantic weekend away, Northumberland is the perfect destination. Create memories that will last a lifetime at Crookham Dairy.
