Wrapped in sixty acres of private fields and forest, this beautifully restored stone farmhouse blends timeless warmth with quiet luxury. Just an hour from Newcastle, ten ensuite bedrooms provide calm retreats for every guest, from early risers to night owls. Inside, every beam and stone speaks of shared stories and new memories waiting to be made.

Your family celebration unfolds through spaces made for connection — the dining room glowing with candlelight and laughter, the snug with its log burner perfect for evening games, and the bar ready for a toast to togetherness. Outside, the countryside becomes your playground: long woodland walks, sunset picnics, and barbecues that stretch into starlit nights. Every corner invites generations to gather, relax, and simply enjoy being together.

Picture the weekend: children racing across open fields, a shared feast around the table, stories told by the fire as stars shimmer above the Dark Sky Park. Sandstone Estate isn’t just a place to stay — it’s where your family’s favourite moments take root and grow.

Bring your family together and start your Sandstone countryside celebration today.
