Glorious Belford is often described as ’The Gateway to the Secret Kingdom’ and offers many facilities including shops (newsagents next door), a tearoom, pubs and a golf course with driving range. The picture-postcard, coastal village of Bamburgh, dominated by its majestic fortress and wide expanse of golden, sandy beach is only 5 miles away. The small and friendly market town of Wooler sits at the foot of the Cheviot Hills, a popular destination for those who enjoy cycling, hang-gliding, golf, horse riding and walking, with the challenging route of the St Cuthbert’s Way close by. Chatton Trout Fishery invites amateur anglers to fish, without needing a licence, on a picturesque, 4-acre lake.
Belford is located only a mile from the A1, giving easy access to the elegant Georgian town of Berwick, which straddles the salmon-rich River Tweed to the north. The cobbled market town of Alnwick, protected by its dramatic castle and offering a wide array of amenities, is close by. Alnwick Garden is a popular visitor attraction to see the Grande Cascade Waterfall and dine in the restaurant within the largest tree house in Europe.
Take a trip to the vibrant cities of Newcastle-upon-Tyne or Edinburgh, both only an hour’s drive away, or enjoy the journey by train from Berwick or Alnmouth. Ashleigh House provides a comfortable base from which to explore the Northumbrian countryside, along the Northumberland Heritage Coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the Scottish Borders.

Had a fantastic break staying at Ashleigh House. Lovely clean and comfortable cottage. Nice friendly village with a lovely cafe, chip shop and two village pubs and hotel. Belford is a great base for exploring the beautiful area. Will definitely be back.

The back door lock was very difficult to lock and unlock and the front door had dropped , and a couple of times we could not open it from the inside and we had to go around from the back and open it with the front door key
