Tucked away on a quiet terraced street in the centre of Alnwick, this elegant Georgian townhouse is a stylish base for families or friends ready to uncover the best of this captivating Northumberland town. Return home after a day of discovery to warm your toes by the roaring wood burner or dine alfresco in the private courtyard garden.
Inside, the property blends Georgian charm with contemporary comfort. Step into a welcoming hallway with a beautifully reclaimed staircase. To the left, the character-filled lounge features sash windows, a wood burner set in an inglenook fireplace, vintage furnishings, and a Smart TV. Opposite, the elegant dining room invites long, leisurely meals with an inglenook fireplace, round dining table, and a plush velvet sofa. At the end of the hall, a compact yet thoughtfully equipped kitchen awaits, boasting shaker-style cabinetry and a Range cooker, with a door opening onto the courtyard. Upstairs, three tranquil bedrooms promise restful nights. Choose from a king-size room with a wrought-iron bed, a super-king-size zip-and-link room offering flexible sleeping arrangements, and a snug that can be made up as a single. A luxurious family bathroom completes the floor, with a free-standing copper bathtub and a walk-in shower. Outside, a private courtyard with a bistro table and chairs provides a peaceful setting for morning coffees and evening tipples. While there is no dedicated parking, the street is unrestricted and no permits are required, making arrivals and days out stress-free.
Wander to Alnwick Castle – famed as a Harry Potter filming location – and stroll through its extraordinary Poison Garden, both 0.5 miles away. Uncover independent shops, tempting cafes, and delicious dining spots, or lose yourself among the thousands of titles at Barter Books. When the coast calls, head to Alnmouth (4.5 miles) for golden sands and birdwatching, or visit the fishing village of Craster (7 miles) for its famous smoked kippers.
