Dene Cottage is a 3 bedroom traditional Northumbrian stone cottage, accommodating 6 guests. The cottage is hidden away near the tranquil Northumbrian village of Ellingham, yet just 2 minutes from the A1.

Located a short drive from the famous Bamburgh, Alnwick and Lindisfarne castles and Scottish Borders, Dene Cottage makes for an excellent position to explore Northumberland.

Refurbished in 2021, the cottage offers luxurious furnishings and is equipped to a very high standard.

​Bookings run from Saturday - Saturday but short term bookings can be arranged on request.

The cottage is very private with an enclosed graveled area with seating and views towards the sea and rolling green hills. There is a small front garden which captures the evening sun and a large grassed area which overlooks the tiered graveled garden which slopes towards the dene.

There are two generously spaced double bedrooms and one bunk room suitable for children. One of the double rooms has a zip and link super king bed offering flexible sleeping configurations suitable for children or couples. The cottage has one large bathroom with a separate bath and shower.

The open sitting/dining room is a great social space and furnished with a generously spaced table for 6. The kitchen also provides seating for 2 at the breakfast bar for more casual dining.

The living room is equipped with a Smart TV and Sonos speaker for fantastic acoustics when playing music. The multi-fuel stove is free to use with a complimentary logs under the TV.

Parking for 2 cars is available on the spacious private drive. Plentiful outdoor lighting provides a welcoming and easy entrance into the property at night.

Sitting on the edge of Ellingham Estate (Ell-ing-jum), wildlife including deer, owls, hares and pheasants are seen regularly.

A generously sized enclosed graveled area immediately outside the cottage creates a great space for dogs to explore and relax among the outdoors unattended. Beyond a weathered wooden gate lies the tiered garden immersed in tranquil surroundings with singing birds and at the bottom, a gentle trickling dene.
