    Why we love this luxury holiday cottage

    Swallowtails Cottage Longframlington is a stylish, bijou barn conversion situated in a peaceful rural location in the coastal area of Northumberland. With a private garden area surrounded by farmland you can sit and take in the stunning views over the beautiful and ancient Coquet Valley.

    Accommodation

    • The cottage sleeps two in a comfortable, spacious double bedroom with a kingsize bed, with crisp white linens and cosy cushions and throws and vintage furniture – there is also a pocket sprung sofa bed in living area so could sleep 4 adults overnight or for short break. (Please note there is a one off extra guest charge of £25 for use of sofa bed to cover bedding, linen and towels and extra cleaning.)
    • A triple contemporary skylight in the vaulted ceiling allows light to flood in through the original beams onto the spacious living room/ kitchen – perfect to watch the swallows skim over in the summer or stargaze into the dark skies in front of the cosy log burner on a winters night.
    • Beautiful country kitchen units come complete with granite and wood worktops, family sized fridge freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and coffee machine. Electric fan oven, ceramic hob, dishwasher and tumble dryer.
