Stylish village living in a unique Northumberland setting near Morpeth

Rothbury is a thriving centre in a stunning rural location in the heart of the Coquet Valley. Twelve miles from Alnwick, this ancient village is built on a sandstone hillside, overlooking the river Coquet. The Northumberland National Park is on the doorstep, and the majestic Simonside hills are a magnet for walkers. For birdwatchers, the nearby Caistron fishing lake and nature reserve is an endless delight, with more than 180 species. But it’s not just the joys of the countryside that make this place so special.

Life in harmony

Above all, a Robertson Home offers space and fluidity. We build rooms which flex around the needs of your family. Open plan kitchen and dining areas keep the family together, with vaulted ceiling garden rooms in larger properties to bring the indoors and outdoors together too. We believe in creating light and airy rooms with generous windows and ceilings are just that little bit higher than you might expect.

Even on days when happy family mayhem may be breaking out, a separate lounge gives precious, grown-up space and the utility room keeps the working aspects of a home nicely out of sight. Deep, feature windows in the lounge flood the space with natural light, and truly come into their own when nature brings warm sunshine or sparkling snow outside. That’s also the time when French windows from the family area can be thrown open to enjoy secure, timber-fenced gardens. We may not have thought of everything but we promise that we’ve tried.

Your own space

Pull your stylish, contemporary door closed upstairs and the wide open hallway gives way to your private space. Some Robertson house types have third floor study, gym or generous storage areas but all boast peaceful, beautifully designed bedrooms and luxurious bath or shower rooms to enjoy 'me' time. Just like downstairs, room sizes, windows and ceiling heights are a little bit more generous than other modern homes so your own special haven can feel cosy, not closed in.

With good sized en suite facilities and generous family bathrooms, the commitment to light and airy living continues throughout. Over two stories or three, you will find a room that’s yours to exhale and unwind after a busy day. Some house types over an outsized fifth bedroom, games room or family breakout area on the third floor - but stake a claim early, since we’ve never encountered a teenager yet who didn’t consider it theirs by right. The highest standards of energy efficiency also mean you’ll stay cosy and warm no matter what the weather outside is doing. This is your space to relax and shed the cares of the day.
