1¾ Denwick View

Couples and solo travellers will find 1¾ Denwick View a straightforward base near Alnwick, on the edge of the Northumberland Coast. The single-storey annexe sits adjacent to the owners' home in a quiet residential area and functions as self-contained accommodation with its own entrance, parking and rear garden.

Everything sits on one level: a living room with an electric fire and television, a kitchen/dining room with a full range of cookers and appliances for proper cooking, a double bedroom, and a shower room. Patio doors from both the living room and bedroom open onto a south-facing garden with furniture and a barbecue; this section is enclosed and shared with the owners. Essentials like heating, electricity, bedding and towels are covered, plus wifi and parking for one car. One well-behaved dog stays free.

Alnwick itself has restaurants, independent shops, pubs and a cinema, with Alnwick Castle nearby. The Northumberland coast and its beaches lie within reach for days out. The owners run an open studio on the property where guests can arrange occasional workshops in textile art if interested, and local makers' work is sometimes available to view.
