About this property
A beautiful stone cottage at the heart of the market town of Alnwick, this special hideaway comes with a few luxurious touches. Sleeping four adults plus a child, the three-bedroom abode, which has a sauna, is situated within reach of shops and restaurants and just 350 metres from the charming marketplace, where you can browse the colourful stalls. Stroll 0.5 miles from your base to visit the famous castle or explore the splendid Alnwick Garden, with its impressive fountains and bamboo labyrinth. Bring your four-legged friend and head out of town to discover a myriad of dog walks, including the Northumberland Coast Path, which runs for over 60 miles between Berwick-upon-Tweed and Cresswell. Pack a picnic and drive 15.5 miles to the fringes of the dramatic Northumberland National Park. Enjoy days on the beach at Alnmouth, 5 miles away, or Warkworth, 8 miles away, both with scenic sandy stretches.
Open the front door and step inside to find yourselves in an airy kitchen/diner. With a natural wood floor, light work surfaces and cabinets, and a farmhouse-style table, this has an appealing and immediately welcoming country style. Prepare home-cooked meals for your nearest and dearest in here, then gather round the table to share your feasts over lively chat. Stairs from this room lead to the upper level of the cottage. The lounge is also on the ground floor. This beautiful space, which also has a wooden floor, features a lovely revealed stone fireplace that houses a wood burner. Stoke this up during the colder months and recline on the soft seating in front of the Smart TV. At the end of each fantastic day away in Alnwick, make your way up the stairs to your sumptuous bedrooms, with their luxury bed linens and towels. One of these has a super-king-size bed, with zip-and-link beds that can also be arranged as singles if discussed in advance. There is also a king-size bedroom and a single, all with storage for your clothes and belongings. The enchanting family bathroom is also here, with its freestanding copper bath for wallowing in hot bubble baths. This gorgeous room also has exposed stonework.
Sit out at the bistro table in the south-facing courtyard with coffee on fine mornings or a sundowner on warm evenings. Enjoy the sauna, which is also outside and has a shower and WC, for an extra charge at booking. There is free parking on a nearby street, subject to availability.
