Alnside Lodge

Alnside Lodge is situated in the picturesque village of Lesbury nestling on the banks of the River Aln and set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Northumberland Heritage Coastal Route. Built to a high specification, this large detached stone-built 5-bedroomed house is set in its own gardens within a tranquil conservation area. Only two minutes' walk to the village pub and post office and only ½ mile from the East Coast Railway, this perfectly located holiday cottage is situated 1 mile inland from the quaint coastal village of Alnmouth and 3 miles from Alnwick, officially voted the 'best place to live in Britain' by Country Life magazine. It has a wall mounted designer Gazco log gas fire in the living room as well as flatscreen TV and comfortable leather settees; four of the bedrooms have en-suite facilities. Perfectly located to explore the magnificent Heritage coastline with lovely coastal walks starting in the village. Stabling is available in Alnmouth and fishing close by. Attractions locally include Alnwick (3 miles) with its majestic castle and enchanting gardens with one of the biggest water gardens in Europe, Warkworth Castle (3 miles), Amble Harbour and Marina (5 miles), Bamburgh Castle, Dunstanburgh Castle and Seahouses. Boat trips are available to the Farne Islands to visit the puffins and bird sanctuary, or visit Holy Island when the tide is out by driving over the man-made causeway. Visitors are sure to want to return to what is allegedly the least populated and one of the friendliest counties in Britain. Shop 400 yards, pub 200 yards.
