    “Well I have to say this cottage is beautiful and situated in a peaceful spot in the countryside although 15 min drive to get to Alnwick ( main town ) which was nothing .”

    We loved our stay the only sound you will hear is the animals and birds about the place which was lovely our grandson loved to see the animals round about. The cottage itself has been well planned out they had set out a beautiful hamper for arrival for adults & pets alike very thoughtful , cottage very well appointed and has all the extras like things you could forget , bin bags and kitchen essentials, which we had taken as we have been caught out before. The only reason I did not give 5 stars ...

    We loved our stay the only sound you will hear is the animals and birds about the place which was lovely our grandson loved to see the animals round about. The cottage itself has been well planned out they had set out a beautiful hamper for arrival for adults & pets alike very thoughtful , cottage very well appointed and has all the extras like things you could forget , bin bags and kitchen essentials, which we had taken as we have been caught out before. The only reason I did not give 5 stars to this review was due to sleep the master bedroom the mattress was like sleeping on wood and I have a firm mattress at home, never the less the other beds my daughter /grandson used were great! More than enough towels bedding and so on. Outside the hot tub and garden area terrific all be it you hve to walk passed the neighbours house and the end if car park but nevertheless it was so quiet no one seemed to bother anyone, at the front of the house the little seating area is small and simply done but we adored it again peaceful & sun trap we loved to sit and have a coffee and breakfast there. Neighbours were lovely also spoke to us and advised on places to eat and each day said hello and asked where we had been. Overall I loved this place and would definitely book again for next year. (Just change master bed pleaseeeee)

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.
