Woodpecker Cottage

Woodpecker Cottage is a stunning transformation from a traditional farm workers cottage into a luxurious 3 bedroom holiday cottage. Woodpecker Cottage has been designed to give you the holiday that you deserve which features an open, spacious living area to enjoy. There are three bedrooms which are furnished with beautiful original pine  furniture . Woodpecker Cottage offers the perfect setting for families, couples and groups of friends to stay and can be booked with the adjacent Skylark cottage with which it shares a suntrap courtyard setting.

Laverock Law is a haven for peace , tranquillity and wildlife. You can begin your day looking out onto the nearby Kyloe hills, bathed in morning light whilst listening to a stunning chorus of birdsong.  The cottage provides the ideal base for exploration and adventure, with a variety of walks from the doorstep. Its location means it is perfectly positioned for the stunning Northumberland coastline, castles and countryside. As evening draws in, enjoy a glass of wine in front of a roaring wood burning stove; a starlit walk along the country lanes or take advantage of the opportunity to toast marshmallows round a campfire in the paddock, or sit on our tree platform and watch the sun go down.

Woodpecker cottage is a place where you will create memories:
  • Watch and listen to the wildlife and beautiful birdsong either from the cottage window, your own cottage garden or whilst sitting among the trees on our unique tree platform.
  • Enjoy the open living space we have created with its woodburning stove and comfy sofas along with a well equipped kitchen and dining area that overlooks the suntrap courtyard at the front.

4th visit: It is legend and better than ever!!! by William (5 Stars)
At the cottages, there are lots of things to do including playing out with the children from the other cottages in the surrounding peaceful countryside. Nearby there are lots of different places to go and see. My favourite thing to do is bodyboarding at Coldingham Bay which is only a short drive away from the cottages.
