    The accommodation is lovely and has everything you need. But at times we found the house rather cold, especially when we arrived. It took time to warm up, and my son found his bedroom very cold overnight. As some days the weather was unsuitable for us to go out, we spent more time in the accommodation and again found it cold unless the fire was on. Fire itself is not particularly effective, and the light in it doesn’t work and never has in all the times we’ve stayed there, which would add a bit to the ambience. The ensuite in the main bedroom the radiator didn’t work, and hadn’t when we stayed last New Year. Also, the shower didn’t work, therefore it did not fulfil its function of an ensuite bathroom which was disappointing.

    Apologies for this but as you reported this during your stay all the issues were resolved. Property Owner

About the location

ALNMOUTH

Alnwick 4 miles.

Situated just 4 miles east of Alnwick, Alnmouth is a charming resort popular with golfers and those seeking a peaceful holiday. The village lies on a narrow spit of land between the River Aln and the North Sea and was originally the port for Alnwick. Nowadays the area has returned to its unspoilt origins and offers a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as an excellent “links” golf course and some great rivers for fishing, as well as boasting miles and miles of splendid beaches and sand dunes to explore which afford stunning views of the North Sea. A short drive will bring you to Alnwick with its famous historic castle, The Alnwick Garden housing the Poison Garden which runs guided tours through dangerous botanicals and a variety of pubs and restaurants. Alnmouth is well situated for exploring Northumberland.
