A meticulously presented, Scandi-style lodge positioned dramatically at the foot of a former whinstone quarry.

Stay just two miles from Bamburgh, with its iconic castle and pristine, dune-backed beach
Ideal for a group of friends or an extended family party, Wild Chive is part of an exclusive development in rural quietude. In being set across a single floor, this airy home also suits anyone of limited mobility too.

Featuring a soft palette punctuated by pops of colour from designer fabrics or artworks, its contemporary interiors are cleverly designed. Floor-to-ceiling feature windows maximise the natural light below a lofty gable roof. Bi-fold doors connect to a terrace, enabling indoor-outdoor living during warmer months. On cooler days, your log-burning stove will keep everyone perfectly cosy.

The main, open-plan living area focuses on those truest of luxuries: space and comfort. Different sections host a modern, Shaker-style kitchen featuring numerous amenities, a convivial dining area and the three-sofa sitting room with its 55-inch Smart TV.

Two of the cheerful bedrooms have king-sized beds; one of them is also en-suite with a walk-in shower. The final sleeping quarter contains two twin beds, while a spa-like family bathroom features a tub and shower above.

Outside, that decked terrace is carefully positioned to provide distant views to Bamburgh Castle as you sip a morning coffee.

Better still, a short woodland walk leads to a viewing platform atop the old quarry. From this magnificent perch you can gaze more clearly at the castle and see the Farne Islands in the North Sea beyond.

More pleasant footpaths (eyes peeled for deer!) or a short drive will take you to Bamburgh, where characterful pubs, ice creams, a superb, sandwich-making delicatessen and the Copper Kettle tea rooms await. Looming over a village green where cricket games take place is the mighty fortress, and just beyond begins Bamburgh Beach’s miles of sand — making days by the seaside a cinch!

Holy Island, boat trips to the wildlife-rich Farnes and Chillingham’s amazing wild cattle are all also conveniently close by.

DOGS
Two dogs are very welcome but should be kept to the boot room until clean and dry and for sleeping. They must be kept out of the bedrooms and off the furniture. The outside decked area is unfenced therefore dogs should be supervised and kept on leads in this area.

Please bring your own beach towels.

WI-FI & MOBILE COVERAGE
The apartment has fibre broadband. Mobile reception is limited within the property but the signal improves directly outside.

HEATING
There is electric underfloor heating throughout the property, with a wood-burning stove in the sitting room. An initial supply of logs is provided.

GUEST PRIVACY
The lodge sits on a site in a development of 23 exclusive lodges. The lodge is well-positioned at the side of the development nestled at the bottom of Brada hill.

The lodge has a decked terrace to the rear with garden furniture and a barbecue. The wider site area is a communal space and as such, certain rules do apply.

Guests are permitted to walk to the top of the former quarry where there is a viewing point, however it is important to note that this area is unfenced. Guests do so at their own risk and children will require careful supervision.
