Packages starting from £90 per person

It brings us great joy to announce that we are making the estate available for corporate meetings, product launches, and business retreats. Shake off the big city as we provide the perfect doorway to the great outdoors and unparalleled natural beauty. We always say “you only know where you’re going, when you know where you’ve been”, well Shortflatt Tower has been through many winters whilst still providing a truly inspirational location. We find the best stimulation is the invigoration of the country air, the natural wildlife, and rolling green hills. Only by earthing ourselves in the moment, and truly disconnecting ourselves from the matrix, can we expect to create the perfect environment for corporate activity and productivity. This is more than a simple meeting space, this is a creating space.

Guest Reviews

“Really wishing we were back at Shortflatt right now! We really had the best time ever! ... So much so we are planning when we can return!

Honestly, we really cannot fault the place, everything was just so perfect and done to such a high standard. Upstairs was beyond perfect, once you go through that swinging door even the queen could not fault it! It was just perfect. All the luxurious bedding really made a difference and the lovely toiletries. It honestly was just fantastic, especially living on the BBQ! We didn’t use the oven once. “

“Fantastic space located in beautiful open countryside. The rooms were furnished to a very high standard and cleaning standards were equally high. Outdoor space is brilliant for family games with a large walled lawn area. We really enjoyed our stay and Northumberland itself exceeded our expectations. The only downside is that you will want to buy an Aga! Thanks for a good stay.”

“This is place is truly amazing, we very much enjoyed our stayed here. It is very rare that you find 5 rooms that you can’t choose between and all have en-suite and individual bathtubs in the room. The outside area is incredible, we spent almost every day and night in the courtyard! Thank you Dale for the warm hospitality!”
Dori GThe Annex, August 2020
“If you're wondering if the Manor House is as impressive as the photos fear not, its stunning. A great house for a family celebration. Luxurious bedrooms, grand communal areas. Massive garden and bbq area. Highly recommended”

“Stunning accommodation on the beautiful grounds of Shortflatt Tower. All the rooms were large, spacious and luxurious. The interiors have been recently renovated so everywhere feels fresh and clean. Lots of exploring to do around the grounds which we thoroughly enjoyed. The perfect location for a family staycation!”
LucieThe Annex, August 2020
“We had a wonderful week at Shortflatt Annex & felt privileged to enjoy the surroundings and history of the Estate. It provided the perfect base from which to experience the neighbouring countryside, beaches, and heritage of Northumberland. The choices for day trips was endless and varied, so would suit everyone (we had three teenagers in our party). We made great use of the outside courtyard for drinks and evening meals & could have been anywhere in the world in our hideaway. The finish to the accommodation was sublime – no expense has been spared. Our welcome from the owners and Manager was second to none - they responded to our every need. We cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough. You will not regret a holiday here and we hope to be able to visit again.”
DebbieThe Annex, August 2020
