Codley Gate Cottage

Making The Most of Your Stay

We know that carrying out your own invasion of Hadrian's Wall can be a time intensive but unforgettable experience. We encourage all our friends to give themselves sufficient time to explore and conquer this part of the world. This is why we like to provide a list of local accommodation providers so you don't need to be rushed and can truly immerse yourself in the spectacular landscape of the Northumberland National Park.

Codley Gate Cottage

 

Situated in a peaceful valley at the confluence of two streams, this site would have been sacred to the Romans and is still a very special place today. With the ramparts of the fort guarding the farm yard to the west and the only Roman milestone left standing intact in it's original position just behind the cottage, few properties in Britain can have so many traces of Rome around them.

The cottage at Codley Gate Farm has recently been converted and provides superbly appointed 5 star holiday accommodation. There is a fabulous well-equipped spacious dining kitchen, a cosy sitting room with an inglenook style fireplace and three double bedrooms, each with their own luxury en-suite bathroom. Lovely country walks can be enjoyed directly from the cottage.

The cottage is owned by the Vindolanda Charitable Trust and all proceeds from the rental directly supports the archaeological research programme at Vindolanda.

 To book, please call 01434 344 277  or   BOOK VIA VRBO
