With so much to see and do around this area, it is perfect for all ages and offers plenty of nature all year round. The night skies are outstanding, set in the National Park with the biggest man-made lake in Europe and at over 250 square miles, the park is the largest working forest in England. With three visitor centres, including the historic Kielder castle, you will find loads to explore. A great area for adventure seekers, with land and water-based activities, explorers who may want to try the many walking routes, or simply go wild at the nature reserves. You may also be able to spot some of the local wildlife which were re-introduced to the area, including water voles and ospreys.
The area is perfect for exploring a little further afield, perhaps over to the Scottish Borders, or Hadrian’s Wall country or even over to the stunning heritage coast. The skies here are darker than anywhere in the country, so star gazing is immensely popular with the observatory well worth a visit, but be sure to book first. Fishing on the 2000-acre water is perfect, and you can hire a boat if you want to try different spots. Let’s not forget mountain bikers, who can enjoy routes for all levels and abilities, surrounded by the stunning scenery.
If high ropes and zip wires are your thing, or sea scooters and water waltzers, then Kielder has something for everyone. A real Northumberland gem with something for all age groups. Shop 8 miles, pub and restaurant ¾ mile. The sister property to this one, Kerseycleugh Bridge Cottage (UK30415), is only a 5-minute drive away.

A beautiful large cottage with everything you need. It's exceptionally clean and comfortable. I slept like a baby.. The location is stunning and the dark sky at night in mesmerising. You can clearly see so many stars and the milky-way. There are many things to do on your doorstep... Zip wire, birds of prey show which I highly recommend. Lake trips on a boat, and so many walks through the forest. We even had visitors (birds) every morning and evening in the garden. I would highly recommend this cottage.

We have visited Catcleugh Bridge View on 3 occasions and have enjoyed every stay. We shall certainly return. Clean, comfortable accommodation in an area of unsurpassed beauty. The house is literally miles from a centre of commerce but is near enough to the village for it not to feel too isolated. any shopping needs to be done before arrival, either online or en route, as there are no shops locally. Do not rely on the village pub (Angler's arms / aka Kielder Tavern) - it has never been open when we have called for a meal, even though the website suggests it should be.Anyone wanting acres of varied scenery, wildlife, dark skies and tranquility should love this.
