    “A nice property in a lovely location between Alnwick and Rothbury - well situated for visiting countryside and coast.”

    Very spacious and well equipped. Comfortable beds/sofas with nice bedding and towels provided. Good log burner made it cosy and warm on winters evening. Parking directly outside and enclosed back garden which was good for the dog. Would be nice place to sit out on a summers day. It was a shame that there was a lot of leaves outside the back door/patio which hadn't been swept up for some time so had to paddle through them to get out. Overall a tastefully decorated and very well equipped and ...

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.

Note: The bed in bedroom 1 is a king-size zip-link as standard, if you require this to be twin beds, please contact us.
