Property code: OC-COQ70

Situated beside the scenic River Coquet, this picture-postcard cottage is a perfect base for family and friends to discover the hidden treasures of the Northumberland coast and countryside. Enjoy cosy nights in this pretty accommodation, which sleeps six guests and features fabulous birdwatching views, a wood burner, and a sought-after location in historic Warkworth.

Step inside this honey-coloured home and switch the kettle on in the fabulous, well-equipped kitchen/diner. Grab glimpses of wildlife as you prepare meals in this space, then cup your piping hot brew and enter the welcoming living room, where you can unwind amongst cosy seating, church views, and catch up on the newest stream on Netflix. Once you've made a family meal using all the essential appliances, sit down together around the dining table or head out to the enclosed gravel courtyard, where you can dine alfresco and take advantage of its delightful riverside position. Exploring this property further, you will find three delightful bedrooms on the first floor of the cottage. The sumptuous bedrooms, a super-king-size, a king-size and a twin, are all finished to an exceptional standard with luxurious bedding, and two of them boast river views. Completing this homely retreat is the family bathroom, with a bubbly free-standing bath.

After your main meal, enjoy slow strolls beside the river with your binoculars in hand. This direct path leads you into the village and along to the sandy beach, where you can while away the hours paddling or bathing. The village of Warkworth is fascinating and well worth a perusal, whether you’re exploring the castle ruins or popping into its inns or gift shops. Just 2 miles takes you out to the colourful shops of Amble, while the storybook town of Alnwick is just 7.5 miles away.

Riverstone is a beautiful house in a peaceful location overlooking the river yet very central to the amenities in Warkworth village. It is clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was all about the location for us. We loved watching the wildlife on the river at different times of the day. Ducks, heron and even a seal spotted! The Read moreonly downside is the parking is tricky down a narrow lane which opens out to a parking area. Depending on how many other vehicles are parked it can be tricky to manoeuvre. However there is free parking nearby so I only used the lane for loading and unloading. Hide

We absolutely loved the cottage. Beautiful, clean and comfortable and brilliantly stocked. Everything you could want. Super comfortable beds and sofa. Great fire. A fire in the back room would be perfect but appreciate probably not possible. Great location. Would 100% recommend. Thanks for the hamper and toiletries too!

We loved our stay at Riverside Cottage. The perfect location overlooking the river where we saw lots of wildlife. The cottage was beautiful with an amazing welcome hamper on our arrival. Local pubs, food and beaches. Warkworth is one of our favourite places to visit and the cottage made it so much better. We'll be back again

Our second visit to Riverstone. Its a lovely house, tasteful decor & very comfortable furnishings. Super well equipped kitchen, really does have everything you need. Superb location with window seat providing hours of nature watching. Everything worked, everything was clean and well looked after. A real pleasure returning to Riverstone.

As usual weve had an amazing stay at Riverstone, its a real home from home for us. After being out all day in the typical March weather, its lovely to sit and relax with afternoon tea and cake all provided in a well stocked hamper or maybe watch the birds on the river from the window seat.

We are repeat visitors to Riverstone. The reasons we keep returning include: location right by the river is fabulous (wildlife sightings this time included a seal and kingfisher right outside the kitchen), and well tucked away from traffic so lovely and quiet. Overall the house is really clean and comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen, and warmRead more and cosy with good central heating and an optional open fire, which we've never needed to use. The owner, Rachel, is very responsive when things need fixing. The reasons we might eventually need to find somewhere else also include the location - not being able to park by the property is a challenge for us, moving shopping and luggage can be tricky, but others may not find this so much of an issue. Similarly, the house includes a very long flight of stairs, albeit with a wonderful view over the river, and we don't find the beds very comfortable. That being said, we have already booked again for next year! Hide
