4 Bed in Alnwick (oc-g32272)

A stay with friends or family at this holiday cottage in Alnwick puts you right at the heart of Northumberland’s magical mix of coast and countryside. Famously featured in Harry Potter and Downton Abbey, Alnwick Castle (100 metres) is a must-see for all ages, and the nearby Alnwick Garden delights with its treehouse restaurant, beautiful shrubberies, fountains and 'Poison' Garden. Within 4.5 miles, you can tread the golden sands of Alnmouth Beach. Warkworth, 7.5 miles south, beckons with its majestic riverside castle, another glorious beach, and welcoming pubs. Beadnell (12.5 miles) is a favourite spot with water sports, a beach cafe for post-swim treats, and restaurants for relaxed evening meals. Head up to Craster (16.5 miles) for fresh seafood and the dramatic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle. Gardening fans should make time for Howick Hall (14.5 miles), which has glorious gardens and an arboretum. Rothbury (21.5 miles) is home to Cragside – a Victorian mansion powered by hydroelectricity.

Step through the front door into a hallway with space to kick off boots and hang up coats before being welcomed into the dining room – an elegant and characterful space with shuttered windows, a feature fireplace, and a large sociable table for group meals and holiday catchups. The lounge boasts a roaring wood burner, a comfortable L-shaped sofa and additional seating, all set against the backdrop of rich wood flooring and period charm. Head into the gorgeous sunroom – a tranquil spot with stone flooring and seating for enjoying a morning coffee or unwinding with a book and a drink. When the sun’s out, open the doors to the enclosed courtyard garden for that inside-outside flow. The modern kitchen is thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for holiday cooking and looks out over the peaceful courtyard. One step down leads to a beautifully styled double bedroom with exposed beams and direct access to the courtyard garden. This room benefits from an en-suite shower room with a grab rail and shower seat, offering easy access for guests who may need a little extra support. Upstairs, you'll find a generous king-size with an en-suite shower room, and another king-size bedroom bursting with character. The family bathroom is a real showstopper with a freestanding roll-top bath for indulgent soaks after a day out exploring.

Venture up to the second floor, where sloping ceilings give a cosy feel. There’s a twin bedroom tucked into the eaves, a seating area on the landing, and a snug, the perfect hideaway for children with a Smart TV, an easy chair, and a day bed that can accommodate an extra guest if needed.

Outside, the enclosed courtyard garden is a peaceful, private space for al fresco meals or evening drinks, complete with a table and chairs. Parking is on-street with permits provided via parking disks, ensuring arrival and exploration are stress-free.
