Luxury stays Northumberland have a way of making you forget the world exists — and nowhere does this better than In Green Fields, a pair of boutique retreats tucked into the Northumberland countryside near Newcastle and Ponteland. Whether you’re craving a proper escape from the city or simply want to slow down and breathe again, these two intimate lodges offer exactly the kind of restorative break that stays with you long after you’ve headed home.
In Green Fields is home to two very special places: The Fox’s Den, a beautifully appointed shepherd’s hut, and The Hare’s Form, a private self-contained cabin. Both are designed for couples or duos who want to get away from it all without sacrificing comfort, with a maximum of just two guests per stay. This isn’t a busy holiday park or a noisy retreat centre — it’s a genuinely secluded experience, surrounded by open countryside and the kind of quiet that feels almost luxurious in itself.
Settle In and Make Yourself at Home
From the moment you arrive, it’s clear that every detail has been thought through with care. The lodges are fully equipped with everything you need for a relaxed and indulgent stay. Step inside to find a fully equipped kitchen ready for you, soft dressing gowns waiting to be pulled on, and the kind of atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease.
When you’re ready to venture outside, the options are genuinely wonderful. Fire up the Solo Stove fire pit and sit beneath the stars with a glass of something warming, or get cooking on the Plancha gas grill for an al fresco dinner that feels like a proper occasion. And if the evenings call for something a little more cinematic, the outdoor projector means you can watch a film under the open sky — one of those simple pleasures that somehow feels extraordinary when you’re out in the countryside with no one else around.
Of course, the private outdoor hot tub is the centrepiece of any evening at In Green Fields. Sinking into warm water as the Northumberland night sky opens up above you is the kind of experience that’s genuinely hard to put into words. This part of the country is renowned for its dark skies, and on a clear night, the stars here are simply breathtaking. There’s something quietly magical about looking up at the universe from a hot tub in the middle of nowhere.
Two Lodges, One Unforgettable Setting
The Fox’s Den and The Hare’s Form each have their own distinct character, though both share that same warm, considered approach to hospitality. The Fox’s Den leans into the romance of the traditional shepherd’s hut — compact, cosy, and full of charm. The Hare’s Form, meanwhile, offers the feel of a private cabin that’s entirely your own world, and it’s also dog friendly, making it the perfect destination for those who wouldn’t dream of leaving their four-legged companion behind.
Both lodges sit in a genuinely beautiful countryside setting, with sweeping rural views that remind you why Northumberland is one of England’s most underrated destinations. Close enough to Newcastle and Ponteland to be easily accessible, yet far enough away to feel completely removed from everyday life — it’s a balance that’s surprisingly difficult to find, and In Green Fields gets it exactly right.
Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a solo retreat, or a trip away with your dog, these lodges offer something genuinely special. The combination of thoughtful amenities, spectacular surroundings, and that wonderful sense of seclusion makes In Green Fields a place that’s easy to fall in love with. So light the fire, fill the hot tub, look up at those incredible night skies, and let Northumberland work its magic on you. You deserve it.
