About this property
This inviting holiday retreat enjoys a prime position in Alnwick. The property sleeps six guests across three spacious, beautifully styled bedrooms and has a sociable, open-plan layout that suits both large families and groups of friends. Head out of your front door to wander along Alnwick’s picturesque, cobbled streets and explore the independent shops, including the UK’s largest second-hand bookstore. After some retail therapy, refuel in one of the town’s many pubs or cafes. A visit to Alnwick isn’t complete without a trip to Alnwick Castle, which you may recognise from the Harry Potter films. Enjoy a stroll around The Alnwick Garden, known for its stunning cherry blossoms. For a day at the seaside, journey to the sandy beach at Alnmouth (4 miles). Further afield, take day trips to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne (27 miles) or the pretty coastal villages of Bamburgh (17 miles) and Seahouses (15 miles).
The traditional stone cottage cleverly combines characterful original features, such as exposed beams, with contemporary interiors. Enter the holiday home into a porch area where you can store coats and walking boots, before heading through to the spacious lounge/kitchen/diner with its striking, vaulted ceiling and vibrant colour scheme. Sumptuous sofas are arranged around a Smart TV for enjoying movie nights together, and there’s a wood burner-effect gas fire for those chilly evenings. To the rear of the room is a sleek kitchen area with glossy units and all the equipment needed to cater for the group. Rounding off the living space is an elegant dining table for hosting dinner parties and special occasions. All three bedrooms are decorated in calming tones and have plush linens for a good night’s sleep. Choose from a super-king-size bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, an inviting king-size, or a cosy twin. A fabulous family bathroom with a free-standing bath and a rainfall shower completes the accommodation.
Outside, the enclosed garden has a large patio with furniture for al fresco dining, as well as feature lighting to set the mood. Beyond the patio is a lawn area where children and four-pawed guests can play. Private parking is available on the driveway for two or three cars, depending on size.
