near
Hadrians Wall
surounded by
beautiful Northumbrian countryside
Welcome
to Montcoffer, our delightful bed and breakfast country home
for up to six guests, in the village of Bardon Mill near Hexham
and Haltwhistle, situated in the picturesque South Tyne Valley
in the heart of Hadrians Wall Country.
You
will stay and be pampered in our elegantly converted stable
block, extensively refurbished in 1999. We spared no expense
to provide comfort, quality, style and peaceful privacy for
our guests.
Your
accommodation is set well back from the road, detached from
our house, overlooking the courtyard and gardens where our interesting
collection of sculpture and street
jewellery is on display.
Two
luxury en-suite bedrooms in ground floor accommodation with
pitch pine floors, beamed ceilings and a custom built wood burning
stove - all with disabled access.
Award
winning full Northumbrian breakfasts including our exclusive
"Northumbrian Wrestler's Breakfasts".
Vegetarian diets are also available.
Just
10 minutes drive from the most scenic part of Hadrians Wall.
Local activities include fishing, walking, cycling, horse riding,
bird watching, swimming, golf and canoeing.
Hosts
John and Dehlia have a range of interests including art, design,
gardening, sculpture, enamel street signs, local village history
and belly dancing!
Location
Conveniently located mid-way between the cities of Carlisle
and Newcastle, just off the A69 and only an hour away from the
Lake District and Scotland. There are regular bus and train
services to the village, and the train station is only a few
hundred yards away from Montcoffer.
Enjoy
the Grounds and the Artefacts
Guests are welcome to wander through the gardens to enjoy the
plants or to inspect the many interesting artefacts and collectables
dotted around, or maybe just to listen to the babble of the
Chainley Burn that flows down to Montcoffer from the Roman Fort
of Vindolanda. Younger visitors may like to feed the ducks and
chickens.
Explore
the Village
We are on the edge of the quiet village of Bardon Mill. If you
need a post office or want to enjoy a drink or a meal in our
village pub, these are only 100 yards away. In summer, why not
sit outside the pub and watch (or join in!) the ancient game
of quoits being played on the village green?
About
Montcoffer
Montcoffer was built aprox. 70 years ago by the local potter
John Reay (of the famous Errington
Reay Pottery) and is named after one of the stately residences
of the Duke of Fife.
Converted in 1999 the front stable block section now provides
one of the finest quality bed & breakfasts in the Hadrians
Wall region.
"This
is by far the best Bed and Breakfast we have ever stayed in,
the hosts and food are excellent." - Mr and Mrs
