Russell Cottage is a mid-terraced cottage sitting right in the heart of Alnwick, Northumberland, on the edge of the town's historic conservation area. It sleeps three across two bedrooms, a kingsize and a single, with one shower room upstairs. The kitchen sits on the lower ground floor with a dishwasher and washer dryer and there's a living room with a Freeview Smart TV and electric fire.

Alnwick is a working market town with shops, restaurants and pubs all close by and the cottage is within easy walking distance of them. The Cheviot hills lie to the west and the Heritage coastline sits to the east, so this makes a solid base for exploring both without committing to one or the other. The coast itself is five miles away, so you won't get sea views but you're not far from the sand either.

Inside you'll find two bedrooms upstairs alongside the shower room, one with a 5ft kingsize bed and the other with a 3ft single. Downstairs there's a dining room next to the living room and the kitchen on the lower ground floor. A gas hob, electric oven and microwave cover the cooking and gas central heating keeps things warm through the colder months.

Step outside and you've got Alnwick Castle and The Alnwick Garden both a few minutes' walk away. Barter Books, one of the largest second-hand bookshops in the UK, sits inside the old railway station nearby too. Fancy some open space? Hulne Park is on the doorstep and it's the largest walled park in England. A pub sits a third of a mile off if you want a pint after all that walking.

This one suits couples or a small family wanting to stay right in the middle of Alnwick without a car ride to everything. With Alnwick Castle, the Garden and Barter Books all within walking distance, Russell Cottage puts you exactly where you want to be. Book today and see Alnwick from your own front door.
