Wheatley's Glamping

Charming boat-inspired cabin retreat in a scenic lakeside setting, perfect for a relaxing getaway with family or friends. Designed to resemble upturned fishing boats from Northumberland’s coastal communities, this cozy glamping cabin offers all-season comfort with a touch of maritime charm. Sleeping up to four adults and one child, it provides a spacious, private retreat with stunning views over the lake towards Bristol Lodge, the historic home of author Catherine Cookson.
Inside, the cabin features a comfortable king-sized bed and a versatile double sofa bed, with a curtained-off sleeping area for added privacy. The well-equipped kitchenette includes a sink, fridge with ice compartment, double ceramic hob, electric oven with grill, kettle, and toaster—ideal for preparing meals. The living space is warmed by an electric heater and offers modern amenities such as a 28” smart TV with DVD, WiFi, and an en-suite shower room with flushing toilet, shower, and shaver socket. Step outside onto your private decking, which leads to a gravelled area with seating around a firepit and BBQ, perfect for enjoying peaceful evenings and spectacular sunset views.
Enhance your stay with our wildlife and stargazing guides, along with OS explorer maps to explore the surrounding area. The site features six unique cabins, including options like Blackcleugh, Humbleton, and The Wonneys, each offering a distinctive scenic experience. For families, there’s a nautical-themed children’s play area with a slide, cargo net, balance beams, and a small boat—designed for children aged 3 to 12—to spark imagination and adventure. Whether you’re seeking tranquil lake views, outdoor activities, or simply a cozy escape in nature, this charming cabin provides the perfect setting for memorable holidays.
