This cottage is a real gem offering peaceful rural life with green views, plus a small paddock which takes you down through woodland to the banks of the Smales burn.

No 2 Smalesmouth Cottage is located in an area that contains some of the darkest skies in Europe. Step out and walk up the fell for 800 metres to the edge of the giant Kielder forest, which actually began its life here with initial planting in 1926. Only a mile or so away is the spectacular Kielder water, with its terrific views, along with walking and cycling tracks. Plus, shops and a restaurant. 

The Dark Sky Observatory nestling in the vast swathes of the unique and magnificent countryside of the north Tyne valley can transport you to the stars! A short walk from the cottage takes you to the banks of the North Tyne River. Nearby the village of Falstone has a pub and a tearoom, and there is also a pub and restaurant with accommodation in Stannersburn, very close to the cottage. 

A 15 minute drive takes you to Bellingham where there is an array of amenities including petrol station, shops, pharmacy, doctors surgery as well as both primary and middle Schools. There is a further primary school at Greenhaugh.

Viewings are strongly recommended to appreciate the location, space and lifestyle on offer. Worth noting, the other half of this semi-detached cottage is also available for sale.
