So Sorry 

Our holiday cottages are now indefinitely closed, since receiving planning permission for our Holiday cottage’s back in 2012 we have run a successful business since the summer of 2013. Unfortunately due to our northern location and as we are not on the coast our holiday season is only six months long at best. We had in the past supplemented our short holiday season with short & long-term Winter Lets

However in 2023 a planning application to allow this to continue was refused by 

Northumberland County Council

Although we took this to a committee hearing the application was again refused, believing we had a just cause we appealed to the government planning inspector, unfortunately the inspector determined their decision lawful and our application was once again refused, and our appeal finally concluded.

We have therefore taken the decision to indefinitely close our holiday cottages until there is a more favourable government or sensible business related decision by our 

Northumberland County Council planning department.

We will of course honour all current bookings till the end of our summer season 2026, however all bookings across all three cottages will now be transferred to just Abbey cottage.

So Sorry, Glen and Monica. August 2025.
