Beaufront Hill Head
The Holiday Cottage was the original farmhouse at Beaufront and we were the dairy farm for the 2500 acre estate. Built when the parishes of Corbridge and St John Lee were enclosed in the 1770s, the cottage has been completely refurbished in recent years and given back its own private garden, with views for 350 square miles (on a clear day!) from every south facing window.
There are many clear days – Hexham, like Norfolk and parts of Morayshire, having its own micro climate as a result of most really wet weather being caught by the various rows of hills to the west of it .
