Five stunning family homes in Chollerford, settled on the edge of the North Tyne at the gateway to
Hadrian’s Wall in the heart of rural Northumberland.
Lower Chesters
Lower Chesters is an exciting new development surrounded by rolling fields, nestled in the Northumbrian countryside, half a mile from the charming village of Humshaugh.
Humshaugh has all the amenities you need to settle yourself into rural life including a primary school, doctor’s surgery, village shop and the Crown Inn, a traditional country pub featuring a locally sourced menu and craft ales.
Immediately to the west of Lower Chesters you will find Chesters Roman Fort, an English Heritage site and one of the Roman Empire’s most northern outposts, featuring a spectacular Roman Bathhouse. Chesters House, an outstanding Grade II listed stately home is also nearby.
Within walking distance is Walwick Hall, a newly opened boutique hotel and spa offering a restaurant, bar and leisure facilities.
Lower Chesters is ideally situated for those who want to take advantage of all that rural Northumberland has to offer, with world-class salmon and trout fishing on the River Tyne and many local walks, climbs and cycling routes nearby.
Newcastle upon Tyne is easily reached within half an hour by car or forty minutes by train from Hexham, offering a plethora of bars and restaurants, art galleries, museums and high-street shops.
