Marine House Cottage

About this property

Enjoying a prime location in the heart of Alnmouth in Northumberland, Marine House Cottage is a delightful stone-built property that is the ideal holiday home for a family or two couples travelling together. Inside, the interior is immaculately presented and has been finished to a high standard, promising guests a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The open-plan living space offers plenty of room for guests, whether it’s chilling out in the sitting area where there is loads of comfy seating, cooking up a storm in the stylish fully fitted kitchen or pulling up a chair to eat in the charming dining area. You can imagine spending lots of time here during your holiday enjoying each other’s company, zoning out and watching TV or simply curling up with a good book. Outside, there is a delightful terrace where you can spend time alfresco soaking up the views of the sea and beyond. The décor reflects the coastal location with sea blues and nautical themes throughout particularly in the bedrooms (a king-size and a twin) which exude a really calm ambience where you can recharge your batteries and emerge refreshed and raring to go. After a rejuvenating shower in the morning and a quick coffee on the terrace, you’ll be ready to get out and about exploring. Vibrant Alnmouth is within a short walk where you will find a good selection of shops and eateries as well as a golf course and miles of sandy beaches. Take a short drive to Alnwick, famous for its castle and gardens, or drive a little further to attractions such as Hadrian’s Wall, Howick Hall and Gardens, Dunstanburgh Castle and Northumberland Country Zoo. Take a boat trip over to the Farne Islands where you might catch sight of an unusual bird or seal. If you love wildlife, then you’ve come to the right place with RSPB reserves at Annstead Dunes and Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre. Activities worth having a go at while you’re here include golf at Alnmouth Golf Club, horse-riding at Slate Hall Riding Centre, surfing at Bamburgh Castle Beach and sailing at Beadnell Sailing Club. Offering spacious and well-presented accommodation, Marine House Cottage has all the ingredients for the perfect holiday.

Situated just 4 miles east of Alnwick, Alnmouth is a charming resort popular with golfers and those seeking a peaceful holiday. The village lies on a narrow spit of land between the River Aln and the North Sea and was originally the port for Alnwick. Nowadays the area has returned to its unspoilt origins and offers a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as an excellent “links” golf course and some great rivers for fishing, as well as boasting miles and miles of splendid beaches and sand dunes to explore which afford stunning views of the North Sea. A short drive will bring you to Alnwick with its famous historic castle, The Alnwick Garden housing the Poison Garden which runs guided tours through dangerous botanicals and a variety of pubs and restaurants. Alnmouth is well situated for exploring Northumberland.
