Dove Cottage is a snug 3-star retreat on a working farm in Milton, right near the Northumberland-Cumbria border. This single-level cottage sits in the foothills of the North Pennines. Perfect for couples who want countryside without isolation - Brampton's just 2 miles away with shops and cafes, while Carlisle is only 10 miles off.
The area is brilliant for walkers. Wild fells and knockout views surround you in every direction. Hadrian's Wall is about 8 miles away - worth the trip even if history isn't usually your thing. And after a day tramping the hills, you'll appreciate that shared hot tub even more. Just like relationships, it's better when shared with others. . .

And after a day tramping the hills, you'll appreciate that shared hot tub even more. Just like relationships, it's better when shared with others... though hopefully just the hot water, not your partner.
The cottage itself is all on one level with an open-plan living space. There's a compact kitchen/dining/sitting area with a wood burner and French doors to the garden. The bedroom has a king-size bed and there's a bathroom with shower over bath. Kitchen includes electric oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Entertainment comes via TV/DVD and CD radio.
Visit Carlisle Castle (10 miles, 20 minutes), explore Lanercost Priory (5 miles, 10 minutes), wander through Talkin Tarn Country Park (3 miles, 8 minutes), or discover the Roman Army Museum (9 miles, 18 minutes).
Dove Cottage offers the perfect mix of rural peace with nearby conveniences. The private fenced garden is ideal for dogs and the shared hot tub is perfect for stargazing. Just note the nearby railway - occasional train noise might interrupt your countryside soundtrack.
