A warm welcome greets visitors to Melkridge - a pretty village that sits only 2 miles east of Haltwhistle, geographically acknowledged as ' the Centre of Britain' and offers many amenities including several shops, restaurants, a sports centre and an outdoor swimming pool. This is the very heart of 'Hadrian's Wall Country' set within England's largest Heritage site - the most northerly of National Parks. Vindolanda is close by and Thirlwell Castle, a quarry wildlife park, The Roman Army Museum and Walltown Craggs - the highest remaining section of Hadrian's Wall - are all interesting visitor attractions within easy reach. Horse riders, ramblers and cyclists will delight in exploring the various footpaths and bridleways - the new cycle route which follows the Wall for 174 miles runs past the old Military Road close by. Golfing enthusiasts will enjoy the ample choice of several prestigious courses within easy reach and salmon fishing can be enjoyed on the River Tyne The A69 is close by giving easy access to explore this beautiful region. The historic market town of Hexham, dominated by its majestic abbey offers an abundance of amenities 15 miles east and Carlisle is only 23 miles west, therefore making The Old Church a superb base for those seeking to explore the historic charms of Hadrian's Wall Country coupled with easy access to visit the Lake District too.

What our customers say

J Nixon - April 2013

The Old Church was perfect for our family reunion,the accomodation was excellent and the location allowed us to do so many things. I would definitely recommend it to anyone else.


D Nash - November 2011

Very good


J I Isaac - August 2011

Spacious, light, warm and welcoming. 'Luxurious' has to be mentioned. No garden but plenty of space for three young lads to busy themselves when not charging round Hadrians wall... ideally situated for a great holiday in Northumberland.
