Straight from your front door, Barcombe Fell is within walking distance. The beautiful heather-clad hill gradually reaches the summit where you have spectacular views as far as the eye can see of Hadrian’s wall to the north and The Pennines to the south west. Barcombe Quarry is also famous as the place where a small bronze arm purse containing 63 Roman coins was discovered in the 1800’s. This find is now known as The Thorngrafton Horde and is one of many historic finds in the region.
The picturesque village of Bardon Mill is within easy reach of the A69 giving opportunities to explore this historic region by car or train, with the station only minutes away. There is also a bus service (no. 685) which travels between Carlisle and Newcastle on an hourly basis, and Bardon Mill is on the Newcastle/Carlisle railway line with a stopping service in each direction every 2 hours. Haydon Bridge offers plentiful facilities only 4 miles east and Haltwhistle, geographically acknowledged as ’the Centre of Britain’ has many amenities including several shops, restaurants, a sports centre and an outdoor swimming pool.
Fern Cottage is ideally located to explore Hadrian’s Wall and Allen Banks, the beautiful National Trust valley. Beltingham has a wonderful church, St Cuthberts, which is of Saxon origin. In addition, why not visit the Roman site of Vindolanda, which is world-renowned and the location of the finding of the Vindolanda tablets, the oldest ’postcards’ in the world. Shop 1½ miles, pub and restaurant 1 mile.
