Get Out There
Those with a more adventurous spirit or the desire to be more active will be spoiled for choice. From fishing and cycling around the Hesleyside Estate to the plethora of activities on offer at Kielder Water and Forest Park, you’ll look forward to retreating into the calm and tranquil surroundings of your luxurious Shepherd’s Hut or Cabin at the end of a hectic day.
Fishing
The most popular “sport” in Britain is also the most relaxing! The North Tyne is famous as a salmon river so rent a rod on the well regarded Hesleyside Beat (max 3 rods) just 5 minutes walk from Hesleyside Huts, the perfect fisherman’s lodges during the fishing season (Aug-Oct). Ask Anna and William for more information.
Bicycles
The lack of traffic and breath-taking new view around each bend has meant that Northumberland is now the premier destination for those who like to explore an area by bike. We can arrange bike hire or suggest routes from 9 – 90 miles around the glorious Hesleyside Estate and surrounding areas.
Kielder Water and Forest Park
The largest man-made lake in Europe, Kielder Water and its surrounding forest (20-minutes-drive away) are becoming the new Mecca for those seeking adventure. From mountain biking to sailing, water skiing to horse-riding, archery and body-zorbing there really is something for everyone.

It’s very unique and you feel independent and out there in the wild. I wish the checkout wasn’t so early at 10am. 12pm would have been great so it doesn’t feel like rushed in the morning and you get to sleep with less stress. 2 x sacks of wood lasted us the two nights and even managed to do a lil bbq with it."
We most definitely will stay again."
You have everything you need inside to survive. The bathroom has a modern feel without losing the charm of the hut. The bed was very comfortable. The view from the verandah is beautiful and the amount of wildlife around is amazing. It really feels you’re in the wild without sacrificing the comforts of home. Honestly couldn’t have asked for a better base at which to spend our long weekend. Will be back!!!

Thoughtful touches throughout and the finish makes it worth every penny.
