Local Information
Melkridge is close to Bardon Mill and located 2 miles from Haltwhistle, which is famously known as The Centre Of Britain. The property is just 10 miles from Hexham and there is good access to Newcastle Airport and the city.

Bardon Mill’s name derives from the woollen mill which used to be found here. The inn there gained the name The Bowes because of the area’s close association with the late Queen Mother’s family, the Bowes-Lyons. There is a traditional working salt-glaze pottery here with a beehive kiln. Today, the product range focuses on a variety of garden pots which can be found in gardens and garden centres across the country.

Haltwhistle town centre has a great selection of shops including small supermarkets, butchers, chemist, antique shop, florist, solicitors, estate agents, banks, a post office, library, sports centre and swimming pool, a cottage hospital and doctors’ surgery. There is also a good selection of take away food venues, cafes, local Inns and restaurants. Haltwhistle prides itself on being the ‘Centre of Britain’, this small market town is well served by a range of local shops, transport links and excellent pubs. There are 3 castles within a few miles of Haltwhistle; Blenkinsop and Bellister are ruins, but the 14th Century Thirlwall Castle is well-preserved and worth a visit. Five miles away are the Roman Forts of Housteads and the Vindolanda site, the best-preserved Roman camps on Hadrian’s Wall.

Haltwhistle is situated only a few miles from Hexham and can be reached easily by road or rail and is ideal for exploring the Northumberland coast and the National Park. The historic market town of Hexham, dominated by its majestic abbey, offers an abundance of amenities only 12 miles east or travel an extra 20 minutes to sample the vibrant city of Newcastle or try a little retail therapy at the world-renowned Metro Centre. The Cumbrian and Scottish borders are close by; Carlisle is only 25 miles west, therefore making it a superb base for those seeking to explore the historic charms of Northumberland coupled with the magnificent Lakeland Fells and Gretna lies 28miles away where you can easily explore the beautiful West Coast and its pretty seaside villages.

Directions NE49 0LP
