We have stayed at Cosy Nook for the past two years and found the cottage perfectly adequate as a base for exploring the beautiful Northumberland countryside as well as easy access to Scotland. Most things we needed were provided and the beds on the first floor were comfortable which makes all the difference when staying away from home. We would heartily recommend this cottage unless you are over critical or want 5 star accommodation.
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.

Previous visitors' comments about Cosy Nook:
Cosy Nook provided an excellent stay in Alnwick. Good accommodation close to town centre. Can be highly recommended for groups or families.
Mr Hodgson, Pontefract, December 2009
Cosy Nook is just that. It is also slightly quirky and characterful. The decor and artworks are very good.
The Bakehouse Gallery is well worth a visit, as are the Alnwick gardens and Treehouse restaurant. There was nothing that would prevent me booking again.
Mr Baldock, Scarborough, October 2009
Had a very enjoyable holiday based at Cosy Nook - the house is in a good location with easy access to Alnwick town center, the A1 and the National Park.
Mr Judd, Chichester, October 2009
Convenient for the town centre but still quiet.
