A warm welcome awaits you when you visit Whitelee Holiday Cottages. Located in the stunning countryside of the Northumberland National Park, overlooking Whitelee Fell National Nature Reserve and close to the beautiful Scottish Borders, the three cosy cottages offer well-equipped, 4-star accommodation and the added attraction of CCTV wildlife cameras.
You might be disturbed by the noise (of the birds), or woken by the bright lights (of the stars), otherwise it's the perfect location for chilling-out - and for sight-seeing. Rowan is a detached, single-storey, self-catering holiday cottage set in its own garden and with parking for two cars. Facing south it has spectacular views over Whitelee Fell National Nature Reserve.
Oak is a semi-detached, self-catering holiday cottage with a south-facing outlook over the dramatic hills of Whitelee Fell National Nature Reserve. Birch is a south-facing, semi-detached, self-catering holiday cottage surrounded by beautiful Northumberland scenery in the foothills of the Cheviots.

Apart from all the varied bird-life around these self-catering cottages, CCTV cameras positioned around the farm carry live images to each TV.
With cameras on the outside and inside of a barn owl nest box you'll see the resident barn owls and, at the right time of year, can even watch them raise their chicks.
At certain times of the year, you could also see badgers and foxes at a feeding station where they come to scoff peanuts which they love; and cameras above and under the surface of a valley pond give you an insight into its bird and amphibian life.

Whitelee farmhouse in Northumberland was originally a coaching inn and still has the old coach house and stables attached.
Around 1898, Catcleugh Reservoir was created to provide fresh drinking water to Tyneside where cholera had become a problem.
The farm was bought by the Water Board and the inn closed to avoid pollution.
Two of Whitelee's self-catering holiday cottages, Oak and Birch, were built about this time; Rowan was a later addition, but all three were shepherds' cottages.
About twenty years ago, the Water Board sold the farm in lots and the Northumberland Wildlife Trust bought all the fell land to the south of Whitelee and it was designated as a National Nature Reserve, one of the biggest in the country.
