Description

The Olde Stables rests peacefully in the curve of the River Coquet, adjacent to St. Lawrence's Church in the historic village of Warkworth, Northumberland.

Offering bags of character, this beautiful cottage has been thoughtfully restored to provide homely accommodation for families and friends alike, with wooden-clad walls, low pendant lighting, solid oak doors and quirky features throughout, giving it a sense of style and charm.

Enter straight into the spacious open-plan living room, where you can relax on the sofas with a good book and a drink or switch on the TV to catch up on your favourite shows before preparing a homemade meal for everyone and getting together around the dining table.

The kitchen is wonderfully appointed for all your culinary needs, however there is also a pub/restaurant next door, should you fancy a night off from the cooking.

Climb the carpeted stairs to the first floor, where you can cool off from a long walk in the family shower room, which boasts a double walk-in shower cubicle and a quality finish.

Make the most of the small library on the landing and choose something gripping to read before bed, then head up another set of stairs to find two well-appointed double rooms, one boasting an en-suite cloakroom.

If you can tear yourself away from this delightful retreat, enjoy a lovely stroll around the village and find a plethora of shops, pubs and eateries, along with the imposing Warkworth Castle towering over it all.

Enjoy a walk along the river and uncover the Warkworth Hermitage medieval cave, set within a cliff-face on the north bank near to the castle, a must-see during your visit.

Journey up to Alnmouth and explore its sand dune grassland backing onto the bay, the perfect place for a family day out, walking, wildlife spotting and enjoying picnics.

The whole of the coastline awaits an there are many other attractions including Hadrian's Wall and Holy Island, giving you that much-needed break in a fascinating part of the country.

We really enjoyed our stay .

The cottage is very cosy, comfortable and well maintained. It is even better than it looks on the website. We would highly recommend it.

The accommodation is excellent.

Very comfortable, with all the conveniences you could want. A slight niggle is that it does not have a second bathroom, rather only a toilet as the ensuite. The bathroom itself was large, very well set up, and with a really good shower. Warkworth is a very attractive village with an amazing castle, and there are lots of things to do in close proximity. The one drawback of the cottage is the lack of parking. It is possible to load/unload outside, but this blocks the access to the hotel car park next door, or you have to use a spot in that car park which says it is for hotel users only. It was busy the week we were there, so not ideal. Also the village square car park, which is close by, was almost always full, so it was a couple of minutes walk to the nearest place to park. We were there over the bank holiday so perhaps it was worse than usual.
