Morris Hall Farm Cottage is a charming 3 bedroom cottage which sits on the edge of the pretty village of Norham in North Northumberland. The cottage is a short walk into the village (3/4 mile) and surrounded by some fabulous countryside and river walks. 

It has its own enclosed and secure outside space, with seating areas ideal for relaxing, eating and enjoying the sunshine at the front and a further grassy seating area at the back.

There is parking for 2 vehicles.

On the ground floor the property consists of a dining kitchen area fitted with cooker/hob/fridge freezer/microwave and dishwasher, a double bedroom and a bathroom with bath and overhead shower and WC. Also on the ground floor is a cosy living room with a wood burning stove.

On the first floor there are 2 bedrooms, one with a king size bed and one with 2 single beds. Both bedrooms have access to a joint balcony area with outside seating where you can enjoy the sunshine or even sit and gaze at the stars. Both bedrooms have a television with Freeview.

WiFi and a selection of books and games are available. Bed linen and towels included. First firewood provided with further to purchase on site or from local shops.

Check in is 3pm onwards - check out by 11am (we may be able to accommodate early check in / late check out if you let us know in advance).

We do not allow smoking inside the property.

Dogs are very welcome - and we are more than happy to dog sit if required.

The village boasts 1 pub, a fantastic butcher (renowned in the area), bakers (also very good), as well as a local shop/newsagents (which is very well stocked). 

The historic village is one of the most northerly in England. Situated on the south bank of the magnificent River Tweed, steeped in history, it is a magnificent place to live or visit.

I must mention this before I forget - do not miss the chip van every Thursday night outside the pub at 6pm - you will not get better fish and chips :)

Norham sits on the southern bank of the Tweed, the river forming the national boundary between England and Scotland. Norham has an historic Castle and Church and is a wonderful centre for visitors, with a wide range of fascinating locations and attractions within easy travelling distance.

Dominating the village, sitting on a bluff overlooking the river, the castle featured in many Border conflicts until the Union of the Crowns. It was a favourite subject for JMW Turner, and many artists since, on their Borders visits.

Ideally situated for fishing enthusiasts. Take a riverside walk and enjoy the beauty and tranquillity of the scenery. You can obtain a trout fishing permit or just spend a lazy day watching the salmon, swans, herons, ducks and numerous other varieties of birds that share this beauty spot.

The River Tweed has always been famous for its salmon and is still regarded today as one of the best salmon fishing rivers in the country, with Berwick still having a very small fishing fleet. Fishing, golf and riding are all available locally and there is a leisure centre in Tweedmouth offering a pool with waves and flume. One mile away from the centre of Berwick is the seaside resort of Spittal, with its sandy beaches.

Berwick has excellent public transport and there is a frequent train service to both Newcastle, Edinburgh and Durham.

The cottage is within travelling distance of the beautiful Northumberland East coastline including Berwick Upon Tweed, Holy Island, Bamburgh, Seahouses and Wooler to the West for the Cheviots and the Northumberland National Park.

The area is surrounded by countless walking and cycling routes including The St Cuthberts Way.

Moving just over the Scottish border, it is also only a short drive to Eyemouth, St Abbs and Coldingham which are also well known for their beautiful beaches. St Abbs is a picturesque harbour village with a sandy beach and very popular for windsurfing.

The cottage is perfectly placed for a trip to the cities of Edinburgh or Newcastle. You can either enjoy a train ride from Berwick which takes around 45 minutes or by car which will take you just over an hour.

The cottage is an ideal base to explore Northumberland’s many fabulous castles dotted along the coast and up into the Scottish Borders where there are many stately homes to visit.

Have a truly wonderful stay.
