And when it comes to keeping your furry friends pampered, the utility room’s doggy shower is a thoughtful touch, offering a space to clean muddy paws after a day of exploring, with the added bonus of a heated towel rail to dry off in comfort. The living/dining room is the ultimate retreat, with its plush sofas, woodburning stove, and a large Smart TV, perfect for settling in on cooler nights.

For a quieter moment, the airy conservatory provides the perfect space to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening tipple, offering additional dining space and a peaceful view of the garden.

Outside, the enclosed garden is your private oasis. Sink into the bubbling hot tub with a glass of something special as you let your cares drift away, or enjoy alfresco dining on the patio, surrounded by the serenity of this peaceful setting.

With five beautifully presented bedrooms, there’s no shortage of space or comfort here. The property is perfectly suited to golfers, particularly as all four super-king-size rooms can be converted to twin beds upon request.

St Aidans Reviews

We had a problem with the boiler loosing pressure the response to our call was quick and we were told where to find the key for the locked cupboard so we could fix it. This had obviously happened before as there were some instructions inside so perhaps needs a check. Also both bins at the property were over full so had obviously not been collected. We put the recycling out when we saw others on the street so perhaps needs instructions to place outside the property for collection. These things were a nuisance but did not affect our enjoyment of the property and holiday.

Lovely clean and comfortable house in a convenient location, 10 minutes walk from the centre. Ten of us enjoyed a great long weekend so much to do in the area eating, drinking, shopping, walking. Loads of lovely eating places in Alnwick including Leo's, Melvin's Cafe and Barter Books a must anyway. We all recommend and hope to return.

The property was perfect and felt so luxurious! We were celebrating our 30ths as a large group of 5 couples with 3 dogs and a baby! and we all had plenty of our own space. Having the pet shower and blankets downstairs really made it easier with our furry friends. The only thing I would add is a few more cleaning products for the kitchen, some spray and cloths for the kitchen surfaces would be really handy. Other than that the kitchen was well equipped for a big group!
We all had a fantastic weekend at this beautiful house, only one recommendation, ... We all had a fantastic weekend at this beautiful house, only one recommendation, more toilet rolls please, would love to come back next year, thank you Sue Webster and family xx

This is one of the nicest homes we have stayed in! Lots of space for 9 of us, amazing facilities. The home had everything we truly needed. We loved it and would definitely recommend. The location was great as well.
We had a very enjoyable stay at St Aidans. The house is extremely well equipped and in a super positioned for exploring Alnwick on foot and further afield by car. We can highly recommend the house for families and groups of friends alike there's stacks of space both internally and externally and the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The only thing which could have improved the stay would have been another few days. We may well be back in the summer so we can take advantage of the super garden.

Alnwick Castle and Gardens - NE66 1NQ

Alnwick Castle and Gardens today are perhaps best known for their roles as Hogwarts in Harry Potter movies but have for many years been a family favourite attraction in Northumberland. The beautiful medieval castle is open to the public and during school holidays and at Christmas and Halloween a range of activities can be enjoyed including Santa's Workshop, a Pumpkin Parade, Spell Making Lessons and Owl and Bird of Prey Flying.
Cragside House and Gardens - NE65 7PX
about 9 Miles
Cragside House and Gardens (National Trust) are a popular Northumberland attraction with a beautiful stately home and gorgeous grounds to explore. The rhododendron labyrinth is a unique and fun addition to the grounds and there is also an adventure playground where children can let of steam. It is the stunning scenery that attracts most of the visitors though with many bringing a picnic for a relaxing family day out. The house itself hosts exhibits which change regularly. World of the Water Wizard is currently on display.
Go Ape Northumberland - NE48 1NT
about 27 Miles
Go Ape! has really taken off and become one of the most popular attractions in the UK.  The Northumberland course is set in the stunning grounds of Matfin Hall.  Described as a high wire forest adventure this really is one for the more daring as the course takes place right up in the tree tops.  Giant tree top obstacle courses include ladders, bridges, tunnels and some of the country's best zip lines.  You will be provided with all safety equipment and training on site.
