We had an excellent stay, everything you needed was there, plenty crockery etc.

We had an excellent stay, everything you needed was there, plenty crockery etc. One thing that might have been handy was some pint glasses. For shopping, Alnwick was a 15 minute drive. We knew this and took everything. As it was Xmas we also took extra decorations. The cottage was done up nicely for Xmas, I just wanted to take some extras. Every window had beautiful countryside views. Very warm and cosy, my niece had the Coachouse right next to us. This worked out fabulous for the family and we had a perfect Xmas!
