Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We live in the heart rural Northumberland in the centre of the beautiful village of Rothbury. We have stunning views of the Simonside hills and a house and garden that look over the River Coquet.
Our house has three bedrooms (2 double and 1 single) and a large open plan living room and kitchen and one bathroom (and a utility room /toilet too).
The house accessed from the high street but it looks out over the countryside. This means the town shops are a 3 minute walk away and there are country walks from the house and garden
The house is set on a hill, so there are steps down to the house and into the garden.
