    “The cottage was furnished nicely, the living room in particular.”

    The kitchen would benefit from better chopping knives and would feel a bit tight if 6 people were staying and sitting round the large table. We were staying during a cold, windy week and the cottage felt cold. The location was handy, close enough to walk into Alnwick and a short drive to the coast. The views from the window were a little disappointing - the road and the farm machinery and buildings were the main things we saw - but looking past them we could see the fields. Some other places ...

    The kitchen would benefit from better chopping knives and would feel a bit tight if 6 people were staying and sitting round the large table. We were staying during a cold, windy week and the cottage felt cold. The location was handy, close enough to walk into Alnwick and a short drive to the coast. The views from the window were a little disappointing - the road and the farm machinery and buildings were the main things we saw - but looking past them we could see the fields. Some other places we've stayed had small amounts of tea, coffee, sugar and salt/pepper to get visitors going before they visit the shops. Now that COVID restrictions have been dropped, this might be a nice touch. We did appreciate the bottle of wine, thank you.

About the location

ALNWICK

Alnmouth 4 miles; Bamburgh 15 miles; Rothbury 10 miles.

The attractive and historic market town of Alnwick is dominated by Alnwick Castle, home to the Duke of Northumberland. The Castle Gardens, opened in 2002, are home to Europe's largest cascading water feature, a fabulous (and enormous) treehouse, a delightful rose garden and a beautiful, walled ornamental garden, which will delight novice and experienced gardeners alike. The castle is also famous as the setting for Hogwarts School featured in the Harry Potter films! The town's narrow streets have seen little change since the days when the London to Edinburgh stage coach passed through and the Market Place, with its stone cross, is still the central feature and the ideal venue for the weekly Saturday market. Alnwick offers a good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat and there is plenty to see and do, with miles of golden sandy beaches, numerous castles and boat trips to the famous Farne Islands all available nearby. Altogether a superb location for exploring Northumberland and its stunning Heritage Coastline.
