ABOUT
Shaftoe Mews House is a traditional country home with a contemporary design. This unique holiday house is located in a private gated court yard, based in the centre of Haydon Bridge, a country village which sits upon the river Tyne in the heart of rural Northumberland.

Located just 3 minutes from Langley Castle, 5 minutes from the Roman Wall, 10 minutes from the market town of Hexham and 35 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Newcastle Upon Tyne or Carlisle.
