From Foundation to Finish: Why We Trust Northumberland Living to Build Our Holiday Homes

At Northumberland Luxury Stays, we believe the best holiday experiences begin long before you check in. They start with the land the home stands on, the vision behind each layout, and the quality of the materials used to bring it to life. That's why every home in our collection is built with intention from the ground up by people who care about Northumberland just as much as we do.

One of our most trusted partners in bringing these homes to life is Northumberland Living, a local property developer with a clear mission: to create beautiful spaces that reflect the heritage, landscape, and character of our county. We’re proud to share their story and give our guests a behind-the-scenes look at the team responsible for building many of the homes you love staying in.

Northumberland Living Homes - Restoring the Past, Building for the Future

Northumberland Living doesn’t just build homes they revive history. Their projects often start with buildings that many developers would pass by: tired farmhouses, derelict barns, old institutions with fading charm. Where others see obstacles, they see opportunity. Each development is approached with care, creativity, and a deep respect for what the building once was and what it can become.

Take their current project, for example. In the video below, you’ll see how they’re transforming a former care home into stylish, sustainable apartments. What’s impressive isn’t just the scale of the work it’s the thought that goes into every detail. From stripping out the interiors to repositioning walls and installing energy-efficient features, this is craftsmanship at its best.

Homes With Soul

It’s easy to furnish a house. It’s much harder to create a home that feels personal, welcoming, and filled with soul. That’s exactly what Northumberland Living does. When they design a home, they don’t just think about square footage they think about how the space flows, how it feels, and how it will be lived in.

That philosophy is carried through into every holiday home we offer. The open-plan kitchens perfect for family dinners, the soft lighting in our lounges, the nooks and corners that invite you to slow down and relax those choices don’t happen by accident. They’re the result of a developer who understands how real people want to live, and how guests want to feel on holiday.

A Shared Vision of Care and Quality

Working with Northumberland Living means we can be confident that every home we offer is built with quality, longevity, and guest comfort in mind. We share the same standards from solid craftsmanship to sustainable choices and, most importantly, a deep care for the local area.

We both believe that homes should be built to last. That’s why Northumberland Living focuses on high-end finishes, energy-efficient solutions, and thoughtful design. These aren’t rushed developments built to hit quotas. They’re carefully curated homes designed for people who appreciate authenticity, detail, and a sense of place.

Sustainability at the Heart

One of the reasons we’re proud to work with Northumberland Living is their commitment to sustainable development. They embrace technologies and building techniques that help reduce environmental impact—like EV chargers, solar integration, eco-friendly insulation, and locally sourced materials. Their properties are not only beautiful, they’re built for a greener future.

This sustainability focus fits perfectly with our own values. We want our guests to experience luxury, but not at the cost of the environment. Whether it’s a restored barn that retains its original beams or a contemporary home built with breathable, energy-saving materials, you can feel good knowing your holiday is contributing to a more thoughtful kind of tourism.

Why This Matters to You, the Guest

You may not think about foundations, layout flow, or energy systems when you arrive at one of our homes but you’ll feel the difference. You’ll notice how light fills the room in the morning, how effortlessly you can move between spaces, how everything just works. That’s the result of a home that’s been designed for real comfort and relaxation long before the furnishings or finishing touches were ever added.

By working with Northumberland Living, we ensure that every property you stay in isn’t just stylish it’s smart, efficient, and rooted in quality. From pet-friendly layouts to family-sized kitchens, private hot tubs to cosy fire-lit lounges, every element has been thought through by people who know how to make a house feel like home.

More Than a Partnership It’s a Shared Passion

We don’t just work with Northumberland Living because they build beautiful homes. We work with them because we both care deeply about what makes Northumberland special. This is a partnership built on shared values: attention to detail, pride in local heritage, and a commitment to creating places people truly want to be.

So the next time you stay with us, take a moment to notice the craftsmanship in the walls, the layout of the space, the little moments of design that make your stay more enjoyable. Behind all of that is a local team, Northumberland Living, turning vision into reality—one home at a time.
