With its picture-perfect backdrop where the River Aln meets the coast, Alnmouth is one of Northumberland’s coastal gems. The property is in the heart of the village, just moments from the peaceful estuary – where colourful boats bob on the water – and the golden, sandy beach. In addition to vibrant pubs and cosy bistros, Alnmouth is home to an idyllic, nine-hole golf course (one of England’s oldest), whilst just upriver in nearby Alnwick, history aficionados and Harry Potter fans will love the magnificent castle. South of Alnmouth is Warkworth with its medieval castle, and the fishing village of Amble, departure point for unforgettable boat trips to view the birds (think terns, puffins and kittiwakes) and seals on Coquet Island.
