Loft living awaits in this characterful and entirely dog-friendly cottage in the vibrant town of Alnwick. The property itself is laid out with a group of five in mind, hosting four human guests and one dog in exceptional style and comfort. With everything laid out on one storey, your loyal pup will likely love having their entire pack within close reach when relaxing throughout the day and snoozing at night. The surrounding area presents an abundance of pet-friendly pursuits to set out and explore, including the tail-wagging Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) that’s just 4 miles away.

Head upstairs to be greeted by a top dog living space that’s tucked under the property’s eaves with handsome wooden beams and exposed brickwork throughout. Comprised of the kitchen, lounge and diner, this area is ready to host an abundance of lazy mornings and restful evenings throughout your stay. Leave your furry friend to curl up in their bed right here as you wander down the hallway to find two bedrooms, a king-size and a double, accompanied by a family bathroom. To complete the accommodation, an enclosed patio space invites your dog to sniff around whilst you enjoy morning coffee or a late-night tipple.

Wake up each morning and grab Rover’s lead to head out for a morning stretch, wandering past Alnwick’s captivating castle (0.5 miles) and throwing a tennis ball down The Pastures before grabbing some breakfast from an abundance of independent dog friendly cafes to take home for the rest of the pack. There are plenty of opportunities for letting your dog run free as you start to explore the coast, finding that your four-pawed pal is invited to enjoy every beach along the AONB coastline with minimal restrictions. Head for the picture-perfect village of Alnmouth (4.5 miles) to find a golden sand beach (5 miles) on which your pet can play.

Our Initial impressions were that the walk way and parking isn't ideal. However, the parking is fine if you go out every day. The maximum stay is 24 hours (but you can return after 4 hours). During the day the car park is very busy and there were a couple of times we returned around 5pm and struggled to find a space. However, there are other car paRead morerks with the same restrictions not to far away. Once you enter it really is a beautiful flat, well equipped and very comfortable living space and beautifully decorated. It is in the heart of the town and so convenient for bars and some lovely restaurants. We did have an issue with noise from an unexpected generator being run until 1 am from the takeaway next door. We appreciate this is a new problem and now that the owner is aware we hope they are able to deal with it accordingly. The property was in need of a clean, I felt the very basics had been covered, but a lot more attention was required. Especially as you are paying an additional fee for this service. We found previous occupiers dog toys, toothpaste, significant amount of hair, mould, grime, dust and crumbs. Had we been in a hotel I would if insisted on a room change. The mattress protector was very dirty, and generally the whole property needed a much better clean. The patio area is basic and rather overgrown but a quick tidy up would make it a much more inviting space. Hide

Lovely cottage, the location couldn't be better, 5 minute walk to the town center and 10 to the castle. The free car park was perfect too, we managed to get a spot whenever we needed one, but it does fill up quickly. The cottage had everything we needed, comfy bed and great shower. The Xbox 360 was a nice surprise.

Very comfortable and nicely presented accommodation in a central location in Alnwick. However the position/aspect, and outside space were very disappointing and not as expected.

Great location, right in the middle of Alnwick. Loved the Sonos. Not quite a great property as some features let the property down. Also it can be quite noisy from the workshops below from early morning. Slippery bad path in rain to the property, be cautious, it could do with a power wash!

We had a great break in Alnwick and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only slight negative relates to car parking . This was absolutely fine after 6PM but during the day the car park tended to be full.
