Location

Otterburn is a small village in Northumberland, 31 miles (50 km) northwest of Newcastle upon Tyne on the banks of the River Rede. It lies within the Cheviot Hills about 16 miles (26 km) from the Scottish border. The parish of Otterburn is at the heart of Redesdale, a Northumbrian upland valley steeped in history and blessed with natural beauty. Facilities within the village include Otterburn Hall and Otterburn Tower both large historic hotels. Otterburn Mill provides clothing shopping and restaurant and the village has a first school, pub and two village stores. The property is ideally placed to explore the unspoilt and historic landscapes of Northumbria, Kielder Water and Kielder Forest. Hadrians Wall and the Scottish borders are all just a short drive away.

Enjoy the countryside, excellent for hill walking and mountain biking as well as nearby facilities for fishing and golf.
