At the heart of 'Composers' is our passion to create something
unique and very special for guests. It's a Northumberland holiday
destination where visitors quickly feel at ease be it for a short
break or longer holiday. Our 5 star accreditation and Gold
award status, from 'enjoyEngland.com'
guarantees a superior standard which offers quality and style at competitive

'Composers' provides the ideal place in which to relax, to take advantage
of luxurious holiday facilities and enjoy the beauty of the coast and
countryside. Within easy reach of Northumberland attractions
such as the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, Bamburgh
Castle, the Cheviot Hills and the famous walled
town of Berwick and the Scottish Borders,
it's an ideal, all the year round, holiday destination
In September 2004 we purchased 'Woodlands', and set about
obtaining planning permission to build a new office/reception and holiday
accommodation. In November 2005, the old outbuildings were removed
to make way for the foundations and build of the holiday properties. Finished
on schedule, we opened 'Composers at Woodlands' on 15th April 2006
Why the name 'Composers at Woodlands'?
We wanted to create something other than bland
holiday accommodation. With our background in the music and entertainment
industry we soon found our past gave the key to the future.
The musical
theme offers colours, designs and styles reflecting our English, American,
Italian and Russian composers - Elgar, Bernstein, Vivaldi and Chopin
From a short break retreat to
the base for a longer holiday, we invite guests to enjoy superb holiday accommodation
in the UK's
most unspoilt holiday destination - Northumberland and theScottish Borders
The site of our Northumberland luxury5 star, self catering holiday cottages was once a part
of the old Scremerston colliery yard, a thriving part of the local economy
and life of the area.
The colliery closed in the 1950's and Scremerston, 2 miles from
Berwick upon Tweed,
reverted back to a small, village community with many residents moving
away
to seek employment elsewhere
Following re-routing of the A1, away
from Scremerston, the once busy road around 'Woodlands'
reverted to a minor access road to the local Cocklawburn Beach and returned the area to a
peaceful
and tranquil location, surrounded mainly by woods and farm fields. The
100 year old
outbuildings stood empty, used mainly as store room
