Located on the beautiful 360 acre Beacon Hill Farm estate in rural Northumberland, Merlin Cottage is a stylish two bedroom, single storey retreat offering both luxury and accessibility. With far reaching westerly views, a private garden, and modern interiors, this 5 Star Gold award winning cottage is an excellent choice for couples, families, and small groups looking for an accessible holiday in the Northumberland countryside. Merlin Cottage is Mobility M2 graded and has been thoughtfully designed for guests with limited mobility or wheelchair users. Entry is via a gently ramped path into a wide, tiled hallway, and the entire property is arranged on one level with no internal steps. The open plan living area forms the heart of the home and is a bright, welcoming space with comfortable seating, a Smart TV, Wi Fi, and a wood burning stove. Floor to ceiling windows and patio doors lead directly onto a private terrace and garden, creating an easy connection between indoors and outdoors. The well equipped kitchen includes granite worktops, a dishwasher, washer dryer, American style fridge freezer, and everything needed for relaxed self catering. The oak dining area provides a warm and sociable space for shared meals. Sleeping arrangements include a spacious master bedroom with a super king size bed, TV, and en suite bathroom. The second bedroom is a generous twin. The family bathroom is fully accessible with a roll in power shower, supportive grab rails, and a bath with powered filling. Guests can request a shower wheelchair or bath seat for additional comfort. Private parking sits just outside the cottage, and the level sandstone paths allow for easy wheelchair access. An EV charger is available for guests travelling with electric vehicles. Guests staying at Merlin Cottage have full access to the estate’s renowned facilities. The Beacon Hill Spa, open daily from early morning until evening, is wheelchair accessible and includes a 31 degree indoor pool, Jacuzzi, steam room, Canadian redwood sauna, gym, and the peaceful Laconium Therapy Room with heated body form beds and aromatherapy. Quiet lounges such as the Garden Room and Orangery offer calming spaces to unwind, and the on site Beauty Salon provides treatments including massage, facials, and reflexology. Families will find plenty to enjoy too. The indoor heated Games Room includes table football, air hockey, table tennis, a pool table, and a lounge area. Outside, children can explore a covered adventure playground with swings, climbing frames, a Wendy House, and a Tarzan course. There is also a football pitch, cricket net, croquet lawn, and a large trampoline with safety net. The 40 acre woodland is home to the Harry Potter Trail, where children can build dens, light campfires with provided pans, and enjoy their own outdoor adventures. Meg’s Lake is a peaceful 20 acre nature reserve with wildlife spotting, wild swimming in warmer months, and a scenic BBQ area. Children are welcome to help feed the friendly ponies and goats, and families can store bicycles safely in the locking bike shed or outside the cottage. A tennis court is available throughout the year, with racquets provided and coaching available. Merlin Cottage is part of a trio of accessible luxury properties alongside Curlew and Kestrel Cottages. With Mobility M2 grading, wide interior spaces, level access, and the option to borrow a Vecta Sport mobility scooter, a shower wheelchair, and a manual wheelchair, it is a superb choice for disabled friendly holidays in Northumberland. Whether you are planning a peaceful countryside break, a family friendly accessible holiday, or a relaxing disabled spa getaway, Merlin Cottage at Beacon Hill Farm provides comfort, space, and inclusive design in one of Northumberland’s most beautiful private estates.
