The cottage is not only built of Wall Stone, it sits right over the foundations of the original wall - on the site of Turret 46a in fact - so guests are not only sleeping on the wall, they're sleeping in it!
The central location makes Holmhead Cottage ideal as a base for exploring Hadrians Wall and its many points of interest. The Hadrians Wall National Trail is on the doorstep - as is the Pennine Way - so it's great for walkers (and cyclists - it's only about 300metres from the Hadrians Wall Cycle Trail; route 72)
The cottage has a private walled garden with views of the spectacular remains of Thirlwall Castle and there is space for car parking.
Holmhead Cottage on Hadrian's Wall has two bedrooms (a double and a twin) and will sleep four.
