The Alnwick Garden is a spectacular day out for all the family with rope bridges and quirky spaces. If you fancy a day soaking up the sun at the beach, head 16.5 miles to the village of Alnmouth with its lovely stretch of golden sand beach, backed by dunes. Head south 16 miles to Morpeth, where there are plenty of bars, restaurants and other activities to partake in such as paintball, or explore some history at the two medieval castles in the area.

A brilliant cottage in a lovely setting. Ideal for visiting the coast, Hadrians wall, the Cheriots, and Kildar Water to mention a few. Plenty of walks locally too with Craigside, Rothbury Terraces and Simonside Hills. Plus a plethora of eating places on our doorstop. Brilliant for dog owners as well. Look forward to visiting in another season.

It was comfortable and welcoming and the flowers, cake and Prosecco were a lovely touch. We found that cooking on an Aga different and could not manage to judge timings of food. We also found the heat from the Aga a little over powering around the kitchen area. We love the area of Rothbury where the cottage is in, as we have stayed across the road Read morepreviously. We had hoped to bring older members of our family with us but decided that the different levels/stairs would not have been ideal for them. Hide
