We had a very comfortable stay at Alnmill Cottage. Ideally situated in the lovely village of Lesbury just over a mile away from Alnmouth and near to Warkworth and Amble it was a great base for visiting our favourite part of Northumberland. We would highly recommend and hope to return in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Alnmill Cottage. Location wise, it was a fantastic base for exploring but we also made good use out of the beautiful local walks along the river and into Alnmouth. The cottage was finished to a high standard throughout with clear thought put into providing everything needed for a real home away from home experienceRead more, including a fantastically equipped kitchen.

Very well equipped and maintained cottage in a beautiful village which has an excellent pub and a community run shop within 5 mins walk of the cottage. Peaceful location and the majority of the Northumberland Coast is within a 30 - 40 min drive. Alnmouth one of my favourite locations is 30-40 min walk away we had a lovely short break over the EasteRead morer holidays and I would highly recommend Lesbury as a base and Alnmill Cottage is beautiful.

Wonderful place to stay, every comfort there. Great cottage, well laid out. Walks from the door to Alnmouth following the river.. Cottage was warm and welcoming when we arrived, along with a welcome pack for us and maple dog. Beds comfortable, kitchen well equipped, and books and games provided.
