Lavenna

About this property

Centrally located in Alnwick, a market town in Northumberland is Lavenna, a well-positioned, duplex apartment. Resting over the first and second floors, Lavenna offers far-reaching views over the town, just paces away from a hub of eateries and shops, whilst complete with flexible sleeping arrangements, a contemporary interior, and an off-road parking space for one car; the apartment invites five guests and one furry companion, ideal for a family break to the coast. Park up and unload your belongings, ascending the internal stairs, before reaching the open-plan living space, complete with a sleek kitchen, a dedicated dining area, a plush corner sofa, and a Smart TV for entertainment; prepare meals with a range of state-of-the-art appliances, before unwinding with the gas fire on in the backdrop. As sleep calls, select between three well-appointed bedrooms, all with Smart TVs; you'll find a single on the first floor, followed by two king-size bedrooms to the second floor. Awaken to a refreshing shower or a soak in the bath, preparing for your day in the contemporary second-floor bathroom, before grabbing your belongings and heading for the town. Stock up on the essentials at one of the many supermarkets and convenience stores in the area, or if you'd prefer to dine out, select from a host of eateries upon your doorstep, including Hardys Bistro, The Market Tavern, Steakhouse and Lodge, and The Beef Club @ The Plough. For attractions, start off locally with a tour of the Bailiffgate Museum, enjoy a stroll through Hulne Park, or discover the pretty blooms of The Alnwick Garden and the newly opened Lilidorei, before heading for the shoreline, with a range of beauty spots to explore, including the Druridge Bay Country Park, the Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre, and East Chevington Bay Beach. Northumberland Zoo is also within reach, a firm family favourite, whilst travelling north will bring you to Bamburgh, its imposing castle and sweeping beachfront, before following the Northumberland Coast AONB walking trail for further sea glimpses. Experience all of this, and more, at Lavenna.

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.
