This Northumberland hideaway near Hadrian’s Wall is perfect for your next romantic retreat

A PRISTINE LOCATION

Located in the heart of Northumberland, with breathtaking countryside views and under the darkest of skies, The Hiddle Hut is a two-storey luxury cabin that promises an unforgettable stay. It combines the charm of rustic living with modern amenities, making your romantic escape extra special.

Nestled on the outskirts of Bardon Mill, Hexham, The Hiddle Hut is just a stone’s throw from the iconic stretches of Hadrian’s Wall and offers a prime stargazing spot within Northumberland Park’s protected dark skies.

Cosy up in the snug

After a long, refreshing walk, kick back and cosy up on the leather two-seater sofa beside the burning wood burner. Watch your favourite films on the smart TV or simply relax in the warm, inviting atmosphere.

Cook up a storm in the kitchen

The Hiddle Hut’s fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up a romantic meal. Enjoy a full English breakfast at the oak breakfast bar while watching the sunrise and listening to your favourite tunes on the Roberts radio/Bluetooth speaker.

Sleep under the stars in the bedroom

One of the most romantic spots in The Hiddle Hut that has our hearts is the second-floor bedroom mezzanine, reached by a reclaimed spiral staircase.

The star-gazing roof window above the king-sized hand-built bed offers an unparalleled view of Northumberland’s pristine dark skies. Imagine cuddling up in bed and watching the stars twinkle above – it’s truly magical.

Relax in the luxurious bathroom

The ensuite bathroom features a double-ended roll-top bath with stunning rural views and a monsoon shower (it’s absolute bliss.) The vanity, a restored Victorian washstand from a North Yorkshire manor house, adds a touch of elegance with its statement basin and waterfall tap.

PERSONAL TOUCHES

The Hiddle Hut’s lovely owner, Catherine, ensures every guest feels special. On arrival, you’ll find a welcome hamper with home-baked treats, eggs from her free-range hens, and essentials like butter, milk and coffee pods.

For an extra treat, you can pre-order breakfast hampers or grazing boards. Catherine is also happy to help with any special decorations or setups for surprise proposals, celebrations and anniversaries.

ROMANTIC SURROUNDINGS

Situated in a private paddock with spectacular views of the Northumbrian landscape, The Hiddle Hut blends seamlessly with its surroundings. The garden features an outdoor fire pit and grill, a covered bar area on the deck for alfresco dining and fresh herbs for cooking.

Beyond the garden, you’ll find a small woodland copse with a winding path leading to a clearing with a bench. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a drink while taking in the sunrise, sunset, and beautiful views.

You can’t get more romantic than gazing at the stars under the darkest skies in the UK, with books and binoculars provided for the ultimate stargazing experience – bucket list goals.
