The Station Master’s House — Historic charm meets modern comfort in the heart of Kielder

Step into history at The Station Master’s House, a beautifully restored Northumberland landmark — so special it has its own model in the Bellingham Heritage Centre. Built in 1860 and thoughtfully reimagined for today’s guests, this unique home blends vintage character with contemporary style and comfort.

Wake up to breakfast where the railway platform once stood, then head straight out onto the old line for a leisurely walk or cycle along miles of scenic trails. Kielder Water is just two minutes away, and the Kielder Observatory — the closest in the area — offers unforgettable stargazing under some of the darkest skies in Europe.

Inside, the house sleeps up to six guests in comfort and style.

Ground floor: A spacious double bedroom with blackout curtains and a modern en-suite shower room — perfect for guests who prefer single-level living.

Upstairs: A luxurious master bedroom with a king-sized bed and walk-in wardrobe, plus a second double bedroom. Both share a stylish bathroom featuring an exposed stone wall and elegant fittings.

The open-plan living space includes a state-of-the-art kitchen, bean-to-cup coffee machine, wine chiller, and a wood-burning stove for cozy evenings. Relax with fast 5G Wi-Fi and a large smart TV, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside.

Outside, unwind on the private patio or in the garden — a haven for wildlife where you may spot housemartins, goldfinches, pheasants, and even a resident owl.

With private gated parking, smart lock entry, and supermarket deliveries available, your stay will be as effortless as it is memorable.

Whether you’re here for walking, cycling, birdwatching, or astronomy, The Station Master’s House is the perfect retreat — a place where history, nature, and comfort come together beautifully.
