The Tempus, Charlton Hall Estate, Chathill

• Country with a twist: For a quintessentially British getaway with a modern twist, Charlton Hall Estate is just the ticket. This grand destination may scream Downton Abbey from the exterior, but inside it’s brought bang up-to-date with eye-catching interiors at every turn. Within its grounds, you'll enjoy a superb stay brimming with boutique style at The Tempus - recently ranked one of The Times Top 100 best places to stay - whose bar, restaurant and individually-designed guest rooms promise the height of decadence.
  
  

• Feast for the senses: Lose yourself amid glitzy chandeliers and colourful House of Hackney wallpaper, before refuelling with hearty Northumbrian breakfasts and bistro-style fare at The Orangery. For added indulgence, treat yourself to an elegant Afternoon Tea, or head to the bar for colourful cocktails and old Hollywood glamour.
  
  

• Out and about: Set in a sprawling 150-acre private estate, you'll be well placed for long scenic strolls and classic country pursuits, whether that be scouting out the region's best views on the Northumberland Coastal Path, or enjoying a spot of golf or shooting in the vicinity. Be sure to visit Alnwick Castle just 10 minutes' drive away, and for enchanting natural scenery, you can't go wrong with a boat trip to the Farne Islands or the Holy Island of Lindisfarne.
