The Boathouse on Tweed
NORTHUMBERLAND
The House
With fabulously cosy accommodation, huge open fires and constant entertainment from the ever-changing vista of the river and its inhabitants - ducks, geese, moorhens, herons and a family of otters to name but a few - this is the perfect rural retreat.
The house is well presented with earthy paint colours, traditional stone fireplaces, slate floors, pure wool carpets, luxurious fabrics and an interesting mixture of contemporary furnishings alongside some classic antique items. One of the highlights of the property is the 26' dining room with a fabulous open fire at one end and stunning views over the river - perfect for atmospheric dinner parties.
The Boathouse is also an ideal base for fishing parties, with fishing on one of the greatest salmon rivers a decent roll cast from the bedroom window. Fishing on this private beat can be arranged for house guests at an additional cost.
The house is situated half a mile from the pretty village of Norham, a finalist for England's Favourite Village Award and famous for its imposing Norman castle ruins. The village has a local shop, bakery, two pubs, gunsmith and the celebrated Foreman's Butcher, selling a fantastic selection of meats, pies, local cheeses, wines and even fishing flies.
