Summer in Coquetdale
The nearby Simonside Hills, ever popular with ramblers, nature lovers, and Brinkburn guests, hold a magical secret curiously linked to the solstice.
Mark recently paid a visit to this mysterious site:
"Walk long enough in Northumberland and eventually you’ll come across something that doesn’t quite belong to the present. On a quiet flank of the Simonside Hills, far from the well-trodden paths and storybook views, there’s a sandstone boulder with a hole through it — not much bigger than a sleeve — that frames the midsummer sunset with uncanny precision."
Read more at the Brinkburn Coquetdale Blog. But it would appear that people have been using the solstice as a day of retreat, ritual and wellness for generations...
Join us the day after with Harvest Rose for a beautiful gathering of the Women's Circle on Sunday 22nd. Contact heartfeltexperiences@gmail.com for more information.
And then on the Friday 27th we host the Sound Bath with LIFE Holistic Therapies. Book Here.
Meanwhile, our chef Tom of Elder Tree is hard at work building our new herb garden in the walled garden. Tom brings you food rooted in place, passion and purpose. Crafting meaningful, seasonal menus using local ingredients. Soon our herbs couldn't be more local to the kitchen!
His food is honest and soulful. Sometimes simple and hearty, sometimes delicate and bright - always led by the season and the story it tells.
Whether it's a cosy cottage dinner, a wedding feast, a corporate retreat or a pop-up supper, Tom is here to cook something unforgettable.
On Saturday 28th June we're inviting couples to experience the natural beauty and intimate charm of Brinkburn with our Wedding Open Day.
You'll be welcomed for a private appointment with:
- A guided look at the venue, styled for the season
- Time to discuss your ideas with our wedding team
- Light nibbles and drinks as you explore
By appointment only - email love@brinkburnnorthumberland.com to book.
