Falstaff House

Families and couples looking for a comfortable base in Alnwick will find Falstaff House suits them well. The Georgian property sits on one of the town's historic streets, with shops, pubs and restaurants within walking distance. It sleeps four across two bedrooms: a king-size bed with ensuite shower room on the first floor, and two single beds in the second bedroom served by a family bathroom with bath and shower. A sofa bed in the living room offers flexible additional sleeping if needed.

The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, with electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher and all the usual appliances. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wi-fi are all included. There's a rear patio with garden furniture and on-road parking outside. No smoking throughout the property.

Alnwick itself draws visitors for Alnwick Castle and the formal gardens, but the location also works as a base for exploring beyond: Alnmouth's beach lies four miles east, the Simonside Hills and Rothbury are a short drive west, and the Northumberland Heritage coastline stretches along the shore nearby. The Cheviot Hills rise inland to the west.
