The Rushes is a gorgeous, stone-built townhouse-style property perfect for a family or couples. With 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, The Rushes has 3 floors so there's plenty of room for multi-generations to spread out. The Rushes is in the heart of historic Warkworth Village and is just a 5-minute walk to the main street of the village with its shops, restaurants, and pubs, and 15 minutes walk to the beach. There is 1 designated parking space and other roadside parking in front of the house. 1 dog is welcome and free Wi-Fi. Free digital guidebook.

A perfect location presented to a high standard.

Everything in The Rushes was provided and presented to a very high standard apart from the lounge seating which was extremely uncomfortable and in need of cleaning. The sound system was very welcome and the kitchen was VERY well equipped. The beds and two, double bedrooms were extremely comfortable with a very generous amount of storage space. The welcome hamper was a good addition with some lovely treats and it was a real bonus to have fresh flowers.
Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again IF the sofas were replaced.

This is our 6th time using Coquet Cottages but our 1st stay at The Rushes. Great location. Very well equipped. Decorated and furnished to a high standard. The only negative was the sofas - hence the rating for “comfort”. They were very uncomfortable and it would be a much more comfortable stay if they were replaced. In saying that we did have a fabulous weekend in Warkworth. Enjoying visiting local businesses. Into Alnwick and had a lovely meal at the Market Tavern. Super weekend.

Really enjoyed our recent visit to The Rushes. We have stayed in this area before and it is perfect for us. The house was clean and modern with everything you might need in the kitchen which was great. Three bathrooms for the five adults was perfect, worked really well. Very tastefully decorated and there was sufficient sitting which again was comfy another big tick. This is one of the nicest houses we have stayed in and hopefully we’ll get to come back. Welcome hamper also extremely good.

The Rushes was really comfortable with great facilities. The bathrooms, bedrooms and kitchen particularly good.
Fantastic location - so easy for everything in Warkworth.
Directions, instructions and general consideration of what guests need was great.
The welcome hamper was fantastic.

Fantastic, comfortable and clean cottage that is outstandingly equipped for holiday stay. Located in a nice, quiet and scenic area of Warkworth close to the river and the castle with easy access to the long sandy beach, scenic Amble with its bustling harbour and facilities and a short drive from attractive Alnmouth. We had a great holiday with grandparents on the second floor and parents and twins on the first floor. Not visited this bit of Northumberland before and will certainly be back.

Lovely cottage close to the centre of Warkworth. Home from home. Had a slight issue with a leaking radiator but this was swiftly dealt with by the contact. Warm and welcoming when we arrived. Thank you for the hamper everything we needed for the first night was thought of. Enjoyed so much we have booked again for next year!

The house is steps from the river Coquet for peaceful walks,the little garden under Warkworth castles gaze. Can walk into Warkworth or to Amble for restaurants. Easy drive for Alnwick gardens, Alnmouth, beaches galore.
In the evenings we played games provided in the house- bananagram the family favourite.
The house is well kitted out to a high standard, parking at the back a little tight for a big car but room on the roadside by the house.

It was acceptable but not great. The seating area outside was untidy.

The property was reasonably well presented apart from the the outside area.
Disappointed in the location, expected more of a view.

This is a great spot to visit Warkworth and the surrounding areas. The river is beautiful and the beach fantastic.

Thank you so much for your great review! The location of The Rushes really is excellent, being so close to the very pretty riverbank and the castle hovering above you. There's so much to see and do in the village and we hope to welcome you back with us again soon!

We stayed as a family of 6 adults, 1 baby & 1 dog at the ‘ Rushes’ Warkworth at the end of April, the house was lovely with stylish décor & quality appliances & crockery, it also benefits from 3 bathrooms which made it ideal for us.Warkworth is a lovely village with plenty of pubs & restaurants as well as its castle & ruins which we enjoyed visiting.
We walked to nearby Amble where we enjoyed a leisurely lunch by the sea.
One small thing that was rectified by Coquet cottages was we were not left any complimentary toiletries, & I did notice a couple of the diffusers were empty, small things but can make a difference between a 4 & a 5 score wise.
