"Middle Cottage is ideal for a 'singles' holiday. Fabulous accommodation and facilities, wonderful countryside, great local bar food, northern hospitality at it's best. Will definitely return. From an exiled 'geordie'!!"

Our Green Credentials
At Southlands we endeavour to develop and manage the impact of our business on the environment in as sustainable way as possible.
We are members of the Green Tourism Business Scheme and have recently gained the Gold Award for our endeavours
A Living History
Southlands is a small, 37-acre working farm with a story stretching back hundreds of years. We believe the farmhouse is one of a handful of mediaeval Northumbrian longhouses built during the reign of Henry VIII.
These days, the cottages are a little more insulated than they might have been then, and a lot more comfortable for our guests!
