Description

Set proudly above the North Tyne surrounded by unspoilt countryside, this will be a haven for families and friends to gather for some chill-time or celebrations in perfect peace and tranquillity.

The property is generously proportioned with the main reception rooms designed to take advantage of the sublime views. The interior style is one of relaxed country living ensuring complete guest comfort throughout.

A large sitting room has plenty of relaxation space with large arched windows leading directly into the garden. This includes a large wood burner which will keep things wonderfully toasty with an unlimited supply of logs. Technology includes a Smart TV with Sky TV package.

There’s a bar area when a G&T beckons leading into a large conservatory for sunshine, socialising or both!

The kitchen is well set-up for larger parties, while professional cooks will be equally satisfied with the arrangement for those who wish to take advantage of additional catering services.

There are three en-suite bedrooms on the east wing of the ground floor with two further bedrooms on the first floor - one accessed from a stair off the hallway, and the other accessed from the mezzanine floor above the sitting room.

Outside, Countess Park is bounded by a large lawned garden leading down to the riverside which offers plenty of scope for outdoor and sporting pursuits.
