Blinkers Stables sits on a working farm in the rolling hills of Northumberland, just 5 miles north of Allendale. This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom stable conversion combines luxury with rural life. The original beams and cute red windows remind you this was once home to horses, not holidaymakers with wine glasses.
The surrounding countryside offers spectacular views across Northumberland's hills. Walking and cycling routes start right from your door - perfect for burning off last night's pub dinner. Hadrian's Wall is just a short drive away, with the Roman forts of Vindolanda and Housesteads nearby.
