Pennywells Cottage Rothbury Alnham

This is Pennywells Cottage. It's in Alnham, which is a hamlet out near Rothbury in Northumberland. It's very quiet, just a few houses and farm buildings. The views all around are fields and hills.

It's an old stone cottage from the 1700s. It's Grade II listed, so it's full of character. That means low beams in some doorways, and a big stone fireplace in the living room with a wood burner. The garden at the back is enclosed, so it's private, and it looks straight out over the countryside.

It sleeps six people. There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has a 3 Star rating, which means it's comfortable and clean. It's got the things you need: parking, wifi, a washing machine, dishwasher.

You can bring two dogs. The garden is secure, and there are miles of walks right from the door.

Rothbury is about a ten minute drive. It has a Co-op, some cafes, and a couple of pubs. For a bigger shop, Alnwick or Morpeth are within half an hour. The coast at Alnmouth or Craster is about twenty five minutes by car.

You're right on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. For walking, you can head straight into the Cheviot hills. Cragside in Rothbury is a good day out. The coast with all its castles, like Alnwick and Bamburgh, is easily reachable.
