Whats the beta on this now. There is the bunkhouse, but is that a goer if only 2 or 3 of you?
Whats the best bet?

i think you can get individual beds in that joiners shop spunkhouse if he's not fully booked. There's also a/some bunkhouse/s at annstead farm between seahouses and beadnell. I think there's one in wooler too.

Nice one Dave.

Try this place:http://www.surfshacks.co.uk/windy-gyle/ It's in Belford, just down the road from Bowden. I stayed there about 10 years ago and found it perfect.

Stayed at the annstead farm one on my 30th (yes there was civilisation there that long ago) and its fine. Small and I got the impression she wanted to rent the whole thing to groups rather than individual beds. Thankfully this was what we wanted so it was all fine.
The last two times i have been I stayed here : http://www.bluebellfarmbelford.co.uk/bunkbarn.html (http://www.bluebellfarmbelford.co.uk/bunkbarn.html) if you go, be sure to insist on the wigwam/turkey breeding shed. Its brilliant.

Does that Kathy Bates in Misery lookalike still run bluebell farm?
