Rose Cottage (Elsdon) is a stunning property set in the beautiful, unspoilt village of Elsdon which lies in a sheltered hollow amidst beautiful fells, rolling moorland and woodlands. The property has been completely renovated to a very high standard using quality fixtures and fittings. Benefiting from a large open plan kitchen / diner with views across the countryside, a cosy lounge with the original range and working log burner, this property makes an ideal base for walkers or people wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Elsdon, the historic capital of Redesdale, described as the perfect Northumbrian village, lies in the heart of the Cheviots, on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. Along with the ancient parish church, the pele tower (one of the best examples left in Northumberland) and even the remains of a motte and bailey castle, the houses which gather around the teardrop-shaped village green make Elsdon the largest settlement within the boundaries of the National Park. It is a great starting or finishing point for many walkers or cyclists (route No68) into the surrounding countryside, the tearoom has become an essential pit-stop for many visitors.

Set in the heart of the Cheviots, on the edge of the Northumberland National Park, the unspoilt village of Elsdon lies in a sheltered hollow amidst beautiful fells, rolling moorland and woodlands. The area is steeped in history, and has numerous listed sites within the Parish, dominated by the fortified Pele Tower. The village of Elsdon has been described as the perfect Northumbrian village, with an ancient parish church, an extensive village green and the remains of a Motte and Bailey Castle, as well as the famous gibbet at the summit of Gallow Hill, with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. There are several pubs within a 15-minutes drive of the cottage, including The Redesdale Arms, a 16th century coaching inn known locally as the 'First and Last' Inn on the way to Scotland. There is a good range of shops in the small but attractive market town of Rothbury within easy driving distance, and with the National Cycle Route (No 68) running close by, this is spectacular walking and cycling country. A peaceful area full of interest to explore!
