The Property
Set in a secluded and private setting, Tuggal Hall is a quintessential English country house, steeped in history and surrounded by picturesque coastal scenery. Originally dating back to the 1600s, with significant extensions added in the 1920s, this impressive Grade II Listed home showcases a wealth of period features and has been a much-loved family home across several generations. Tuggal Hall features extensive grounds with mature trees enveloping its perimeter, providing ample privacy. The property features three road access points for easy entry to the property and adjacent paddocks, suitable for equestrian pursuits. The property also boasts an expansive walled garden, home to a Grade II Listed dovecote.
The property includes a two-bedroom separate cottage and two separate outbuildings incorporating stabling and storage, all set within approximately 7 ½ acres of gardens and grounds. Situated near the desirable locations of Seahouses, Beadnell and Bamburgh, the area is renowned for its award-winning pubs, restaurants, and beautiful coastal walks. The property is just a five-minute drive from nearby Beadnell Bay and Newton-By-The-Sea.
Tuggal Hall’s interior is unpretentious yet characterful, retaining many original features that contribute to a warm, homely atmosphere. The extent of Tuggal Hall is impressive, encompassing numerous reception rooms that provide ample space for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living, including a reception hall, a drawing room, a sitting room, and a snug, each with its own distinctive character.
Upon entering Tuggal Hall, you are greeted by a spacious and brightly lit reception hall which leads to various reception rooms. The main drawing room is a highlight, featuring a grand sandstone fireplace that serves as the focal point of this space. Rich in character, it is perfect for both entertaining guests and relaxing with family. The adjacent games room, once a billiard room and the largest room in the property, provides a substantial and versatile space, with lots of natural light and a glazed door leading to the garden.
Additional reception rooms include a homely sitting room featuring several large sash windows with original shutters that flood the space with natural light and frame the surrounding gardens beautifully. The nearby dining room provides a devoted space for formal gatherings.
The working country kitchen features a large 4-door blue oil AGA and neutral cabinetry. A conveniently located bathroom sits between the stairwell and the kitchen. Via the kitchen and passing the snug, the eastern wing of the house comprises the home's utility area, featuring the utility room, larder, WC and boiler room. The sub-ground floor, accessible via the main stairway, features almost 750 square feet of cellar space, providing more than adequate storage space for a property of this size.
Ascending to the first floor, nine bedrooms comfortably accommodate larger families and guests. Six bedrooms are situated in the west wing, featuring two en-suite bathrooms, one of which serves the spacious principal bedroom. The north facing bedroom enjoys lovely views over the walled garden. To add to the property's already ample reception space, a further sitting room features on the first floor.
Positioned in the east wing, three additional bedrooms complement the property’s ample accommodation. This section could serve as a self-contained unit, perfect for dependent relatives or guests, featuring a compact kitchen, WC, and an airing cupboard, providing independence while maintaining proximity to the main house.
Externally
The grounds of Tuggal Hall extend to approximately 7.51 acres, providing a mix of landscaped gardens, grazing paddock, and picturesque natural features.
At the heart of the estate is the delightful walled garden, a private and tranquil space. It hosts a variety of fruit trees, rose gardens, and a historically productive kitchen garden. The inclusion of a Grade II Listed dovecote adds a unique charm to this sunny and secluded area, perfect for family gatherings or a quiet afternoon outdoors.
The property features a coal store, oil tank and storeroom, all attached to the main house but accessible from the exterior.
A small stream winds through the property, enveloped by mature trees that create a lush, natural backdrop. The expansive lawn at the front of the house offers a grand entrance and ample space for outdoor activities and entertaining.
The grassland or paddock areas on the west and east sides of the property provide additional versatility, suitable for equestrian use or simply enjoying the open space.
Gardener’s Cottage & Outbuildings
Tuggal Hall is accompanied by a separate two-bedroom, two-bathroom holiday cottage providing versatile accommodation for a dependent relative or possible income potential should anyone wish to use it as a holiday let.
The two further outbuildings boast wonderful character, featuring a traditional stone build and red pantile roof. The first sits between the walled garden and the eastern paddock and features four internal stables and a hay store. The second houses the old laundry room, a double garage, workshop, a stable block and storage. This building is remarkably pretty, surrounded by floral beds and showcasing lovely original features; it would be an ideal candidate for an annexe or holiday cottage conversion, given the location.
