Sleeps 2

Harry's Den is a Grade II listed ground-floor apartment in Bailiffgate, right in the historic town of Alnwick, Northumberland. It sleeps two in one bedroom and has had a full refurbishment with Farrow and Ball neutral colours throughout, while keeping its original character. Alnwick Castle is about a minute's walk away and you can see its walls from the apartment itself.

Alnwick is a proper working town, not a tourist set-piece, with shops, restaurants, a cinema, a theatre and a leisure centre all close by. Alnwick Castle has featured in Robin Hood, Downton Abbey and Harry Potter, so film fans will recognise plenty. The Northumberland Heritage Coastline is within easy reach, with unspoilt sandy beaches and harbour villages and the sea is 5½ miles away.
