Location is great for short drives to some of the fine beaches in Northumberland - accommodation has everything you need to relax and if you have any 4 legged friends there is an enclosed garden together with plenty of short walks with several waste bins en route. Cosy no hassle down to earth well positioned base with off road parking and enclosed garden ticks the right boxes.

A lovely property for a family, especially having the games room in the back garden. We loved the Christmas decorations and hospitality when we arrived. It was very welcoming. The property is very clean, with a well equipped kitchen and fantastic shower. It's a great location for exploring Alnwick and the Northumberland coast - we know the area well.
