College Valley Estate

In 1953, some of the fortune left by Sir James Knott was used to purchase the College Valley in North Northumberland, although it is now managed by a separate company. It has a spectacular landscape, wonderful self catering and bunkhouse accommodation and a super venue hall suitable for a variety of events or functions.

Attention Schools, Colleges and Universities
The Estate is keen to encourage education and research on its land in a wide variety of subjects. The bunkhouse accommodation is often used to support such work. In recent years subjects under study have included changing land management, archaeology, biodiversity and access. A Bursary may be available for individual students or groups wishing to visit the College Valley to undertake field trips and educational and research projects.
