  • "The property is perfect, has everything needed for a relaxing stay."

    Beautiful garden which is so quiet and peaceful for chilling in the late afternoon sun after days spent out adventuring. The garden is great for dogs with full height fencing and walls surrounding the property. The house itself is lovely, maintaining many of the original features, lots of space and great touches giving it the luxurious country living vibe. The location is perfect for exploring the Northumberland National Park and the gorgeous coast, as well as plenty local walks from the doorstep. There is a lovely traditional pub just along the road that serves food and it's only a short 15 minute drive to the bustling town of Alnwick.

    Thanks Emma for your kind review. Seems like you love it for the same reasons that we do. We’d love to welcome you back. All the best. Property Owner

Where you’ll be staying

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; for even more excitement, the enchanted world of Lilidorei is also available at Alnwick Gardens, offering seasonal events and plenty of fun for little ones of your group. 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.
