High Shaftoe is a beautifully restored stone barn conversion in rural Northumberland. Original exposed beams and vaulted ceilings create a sense of space and history throughout. The barn sits in peaceful countryside near the village of Kirkwhelpington, surrounded by rolling fields and ancient woodland. This is proper Northumberland National Park territory.
The setting is wonderfully remote. You'll wake to birdsong and views across open farmland. Sheep graze in neighbouring fields and footpaths lead straight from the door into unspoilt countryside.
Inside you'll find three well-appointed bedrooms sleeping six guests comfortably. The open-plan living area features original stone walls and oak furnishings.
