A warm & comfortable home in an excellent location which is why we’ve just had our 4th visit to Earls Cottage. It’s a few minutes walk to the town centre for shops & restaurants etc & only 10 minutes drive to the beach. The allocated parking space is an added bonus. The owners provide everything required for a comfortable stay, & include a starter hamper as well as a dog treat one.
We will definitely be returning in 2025

What a perfect find in Alnwick. Brilliant location. So comfy and warm. And you had everything you needed. Comfy bed. Log burner, ideal location to get to the Tanners Arms.

We will definitely be back.

Thank you for our perfect stay

We had an enjoyable stay in Earl’s cottage unfortunately cut short as one of our dogs became seriously ill. It’s in an ideal location and the cottage had everything we would ever need in a holiday cottage. The owner had provided a lovely basket of tasty treats along with milk, butter, tea, coffee etc. and our dogs were given treats and toys and even a drying towel.

I would definitely recommend this cottage. The owners have made a huge effort to make this into a very comfortable house to stay in.

Clean and comfortable accommodation. Fresh flowers and free tickets to Alnwick gardens a nice touch. We really enjoyed our week here. Easy parking and good directions to other places to visit in the area.
Thankyou.

We have stayed at Earls several times over the past decade. It has been our little bolt hole where our son has enjoyed fabulous beaches, and we have felt very relaxed there. The recent touches such as seating in the small courtyard, and the Alnwick Gardens passes, along with the added Alexa and TV upgrades (for inevitable wet days) are great, and add to the fabulous feel of the property.

This cottage is ideally located, both for Alnwick and the wider area. Very well furnished and decorated with large bedrooms. Well equipped and Victoria, the host, was very helpful when we encountered a very minor problem with the heating. We would recommend this cottage.

We loved our stay at this cottage. Comfortable beds, quiet for sleeping and great shutters to block light in the summer. Comfy beds, no chairs with high backs though and some equipment in kitchen needs updating ie saucepans.
Great stay though and superb location. Overall lovely house with lots of space.

Have visited this property 3 times over the last 7years approximately. Ther has been no major changes apart from both bedrooms now have large comfortable beds. Unfortunately the duvet was too heavy for this time of the year resulting in having sweaty nights.
Some new kitchen equipment was welcome and there were extra useful touches particularly for the dog, much surprised much appreciated. Overall an excellent place which was very clean.

This was our third visit to Earl’s Cottage & certainly won’t be our last. The house is ideally situated for getting around Alnwick & with the added bonus of a reserved private parking space. It’s only 10-15 minutes drive to the coast which is ideal for the beach walks which our two little dogs enjoy. The owners have made it comfortable & inviting with everything needed for an enjoyable stay. There is a lovely welcome hamper with fresh local produce, as well as a treats hamper for the dogs, which they love.
We will definitely be back to stay again, & highly recommend it to everyone looking to stay in Alnwick.

Earl’s Cottage is a wonderful cottage in Alnwick which we have stayed in three times now.
The cottage is warm, welcoming and well equipped,, plus the bonus of a designated parking space is great.
The welcome hampers are perfect, full of local goodies and the doggie one is a lovely touch ( our dog Freddie really appreciated it)
Earl’s cottage is an excellent place to base yourself to visit the many walks, beaches and attractions of the North East.
Friendly people, lots to see and do, many great pubs and restaurants, what more could you want.
We will definitely be back

Really enjoyed our week in Alnwick which was a great base for our first holiday in Northumberland. Earls Cottage is a lovely old house just a short work from the centre of Alnwick but in a quiet location. It’s been beautifully renovated and has all mod cons, but retains the charm of the original building.

We stayed at Earl’s Cottage in Alnwick and from the moment we booked to the holiday itself we were not let down. The cottage guidebook pre visit did just the trick so we knew what to expect. On arrival the welcome hamper and gifts for the boys were a special touch. Earl’s cottage itself was just brilliant like a home from home to allow us to explore this brilliant part of the world steeped in history.
We would definitely recommend

The property was very clean & had everything we needed for a very pleasant stay & the welcome hamper was much appreciated.. The location was excellent - a 5 minute walk into the centre.
The designated parking space was a bonus!
The passes into Alnwick Gardens were a nice touch - we used them a couple of times.
We can’t wait to stay in this property again & would definitely recommend it
