Summary - The Retreat Goldenhill Bradford Farm, BELFORD NE70 7JT
5 bed 6 bath Detached Bungalow
Turnkey leisure business with lodges, pods and wellness facilities near Bamburgh.
Approximately two acres in Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Set within approximately two acres in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Goldenhill combines a spacious five-bedroom detached bungalow with two converted barns, four luxury lodges, two pods and multiple outbuildings. The site currently operates as a successful leisure and fitness retreat close to Bamburgh and Northumberland’s beaches, offering immediate trading potential alongside long-term development possibilities.
Accommodation includes Shepherd’s Cottage (owner’s home) with three ensuite double bedrooms, a large commercial kitchen and traditional living spaces, plus The Retreat with two double bedrooms currently used for guests. Guest stock comprises four self-contained lodges and two single pods, plus sauna, hot tub, gym, grill house and seating areas — well suited to holiday-let, wellness or retreat concepts.
Key running features include mains water and electricity, oil-fired central heating, solar panels and a private sewage treatment plant. The property sits in a Conservation Area and has mixed residential and business use; business rates apply to The Retreat. There is substantial parking, a long gravel driveway and large paddocks that offer scope for reconfiguration or expansion.
Important considerations: broadband was reported very slow in one listing note and primary heating is oil rather than gas. The stone-built structures are likely older (circa early 1900s) and walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, potential insulation works and conservation-area consent for significant changes. Prospective purchasers should carry out full due diligence on trading figures, planning constraints and services before committing.
