Experience a fetching holiday in beautiful Northumberland, staying in this entirely pet-friendly period property. This attractive end-terrace accommodation hosts four guests and one four-pawed pal, complete with sophisticated decor and unique features that elevate the space. Put your best paw forward and walk into the centre of town, discovering the beauty of Alnwick with a stroll around the famous castle and along the River Aln. For adventures further afield, both man and dog will adore trips to the Northumberland Coast National Landscape (5 miles).

This furry-friendly hideaway has been lovingly decorated with rich colours, bespoke fixtures, and unique artwork to create a top-dog place to stay. Discover the lounge/diner with a plush velvet sofa for you to sink into, and plenty of room for Fido to curl up at your feet. With the Smart TV streaming, enjoy restful nights in here after long days filled with walkies. A door leads from here to the neat kitchen and a handy utility room with a WC. Out the back, find an enclosed patio space where Rover has room to roam. Inside, two delightful bedrooms await upstairs – a master king-size with sliding doors leading to an en-suite shower room, plus a cosy twin that makes use of the family bathroom. Parking is on-street and subject to availability.

Making it a delightful destination for pet owners, almost all the beaches along the Northumberland Coast are dog-friendly year-round, although some require dogs to be on leads during the seabirds’ nesting season. Explore the wide stretch of sand at Longhoughton Beach (5.5 miles) or the scenic Alnmouth Beach (5 miles). Each seaside destination on this coastline is connected by the Northumberland Coast Path – head to Craster (7.5 miles) and leave no stick unfetched as you follow the pathway up to Dunstanburgh Castle (8.5 miles).

When viewing property details before booking it didnt state dogs are not permitted to do their toileting in the yard hence hubby up early & out to take our dog for a walk to do her business in the street. A notice in utility room tells you If your dog MUST use the sofa to use the throws provided please. (Not exactly pet friendly wording).As it wRead moreas we took our own clean throws and always do. We have rented lots of dog friendly properties over the years and have never had these issues before on arrival. This spoilt our holiday. BEWARE smaller bedroom door does not open properly as two singles crammed into a room thats far too small for them. Should be a bunk bed or one single. I suffer with hip issues and hurt one trying to squeeze past the door to get in. Yard only has two bistro seats at table so no good if there are 4 people. Water pressure in en-suite shower was an issue. Previously reported by other renters but doesnt seem to of been looked at. These issues aside its a nice property but would only recommended for two people and no dogs. Hide

This is a really comfortable, clean and spacious house. A ten minute walk from the centre of Alnwick with shops bars and restaurants. Adam and Eve restaurant even allowed dogs. Amble old boathouse has really good seafood and a harbour view, also dog friendly. Nice base to see the Northumberland coastline, central for the area.
