“Great House, Great Location”

When you travel to Northumberland in March, you take the weather as you find it and we had a mixed bag. But one of the things which made our holiday, despite the mixed weather, was the house. It is comfortable, well organised and HUGE. Parking is on street, but the road opposite offered plenty of free parking overnight. Turn down the alley at the side of the house and in a few short strides you are in the town centre and the pubs are great and largely dog friendly.
Mrs Mckay March 2019

“Perfect location only 2 minutes to the centre of Alnwick.”

Beds very comfy
Mr Moir March 2019

“Alnwick house was brilliant,very well placed for access to town centre.”

Would definitely use again
Ms Sedgwick November 2018

“The house needs a really deep clean, don’t know if you arrange the cleaners or the owners but it’s in dire need of a good scrub.”

A shame as it has all you could wish for.
Mrs Goel November 2018

“Excellent value for money in a perfect central location.”

Need to update visitor information details particularly WiFi. Owners very contactable which was good
Mr Blackwood November 2018

“An excellent house.”

We had a great time. Lots of space and everything we needed for a nice break. A great location - very convenient with a short walk into a lovely town centre.
Mrs Dodds October 2018

“The house was exactly as described and in a place very convenient to walk to the shops etc.”

The house was furnished well, was clean and comfortable and warm. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Mrs Shepherd September 2018

“Lovely house, well equipped kitchen (not that we used most of it), comfortable furniture, very central & convenient position in town, parking was no problem, short walk to variety of eateries.”

Who wouldn’t enjoy Northumberland? So much to see, to visit, to be energised or relaxed. Hope wel’ll be back, would definitely recommend.
Mr Wilkinson September 2018

“Unusual layout with kitchen upstairs.”

Ideal location very near town centre. Two cellar based games rooms were a real hit with the grandchildren, as was the Xbox. Alnwick is a good central location for beaches, golf courses and historic venues. Dropped the rating slightly for comfort because of personal knee problems and had some difficulty with the stairs. Parking near to the house was a bit of a lottery. We were pleasantly satisfied with all other aspects of the house and would consider returning at some time in the future.
Mr Seaman April 2018

“Alnwick House provides a great base for families to explore the interesting town of Alnwick, as well the rest of the Northumberland coast.”

The house is spacious and well equipped. Teenagers will love the games room in the basement and older vistors the choice of two comfortable lounges. Recommended.
Miss Gibbinson December 2017

“It's a big property and I had thought there were two showers, the cooker was very hard to use and kept going off and the grill only worked on one side.”

I was clean but could f been cleaner under sofa etc

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.
