I wouldnât describe the house as plush but it is clean, warm and comfortable. The cottage is ideally situated - close to shops and restaurants but with easy access to the hills. The only downside (which has to do with the town and not the house) is that they have changed the way electric car owners access the chargers. For the past few years we have been able to plug in, pay and charge our car. Now you have to use an app. I donât know whatâs going on - even in Alnwick all the chargers require apps. The provider is a company called Ampup and they are a nightmare to use and fail most of the time.
