Located within the town’s conservation area, this elegant Georgian home combines period charm with every modern must-have. Pet-friendly, it features two king-size bedrooms plus a full-of-light lounge with a wood burner. Unwind in the courtyard garden or wander into town – private parking means you can explore at leisure.
Just 100 metres from a cosy pub and within half a mile of Alnwick’s shops, tearooms and restaurants, this Grade II-listed cottage promises an authentic taste of local life. Step through the front door, and high ceilings and an elegant staircase confirm the heritage of this tastefully renovated home-from-home. To one side of the hall, the lounge is bright and welcoming, with dual-aspect sash windows and a choice of sofas arranged before the Smart TV and wood burner. Across the hall, the kitchen/diner has sleek units, a central island with bar-style seating and a suite where four can gather for good food and lively conversation. French doors open onto the courtyard garden. Head upstairs to find two generously sized rooms, one with its own TV and each with a king-size bed and Temple Spa toiletries. A few steps further up, a beautiful family bathroom serves both, and for ultra convenience, there’s a separate WC off the landing. Your living space extends into the courtyard garden, which is fully enclosed and accessed via the kitchen – take a seat on the bench and enjoy your favourite tipple.
Alnwick is famous for its Harry Potter-connected castle; further the fairytale experience with a walk around The Alnwick Garden – an extraordinary, contemporary creation – then immerse yourself in the literary world while toy trains chug above at the quirky Barter Books. Alnmouth (4.5 miles) has a tranquil beach and sand dunes offering a wealth of wildlife-watching opportunities, while at Craster (7 miles), you can shop for seaside-inspired arts and crafts, visit the kipper smokehouse or simply watch fishing boats in the harbour. It’s a 1.5-mile walk along the coastal path from here to iconic Dunstanburgh Castle.
