About this property

Fossil Bank, a luxury detached retreat in the heart of Alnmouth, with parking

This beautifully newly renovated detached retreat is the perfect escape, whether for a few days or a week, or even longer. It has king 2 bedrooms and a bathroom, both with The White Company linen (or equivalent) and sumptuous Hungarian goose down duvets and pillows. Ideally situated in the village close to the beach, golf club, park, fabulous local restaurants and traditional British pubs. The property is secluded from the main street in a courtyard, and gates lead from the main street. There is on road parking outside the gates and if you would prefer to park inside, the courtyard has ample space. The kitchen has all the usual amenities plus a dishwasher and washing machine. To make your stay pleasurable the property benefits from BT hi speed free Wifi, Apple TV, land line telephone, Bose bluetooth speaker, DVD players and large screen Smart TV. Outside there are tables and chairs with The White Company cushions, and table linen. The beach, park and local shops are literally minutes walk away, the post office and general store is directly opposite just across the road. Simply close the gates behind you for a totally relaxing well deserved break. Please contact me for further information or specific information. Check in time 4pm, check out time 10am. Usually we are flexible with check in times, however due to Covid 19 and aiming to keep everyone safe, we will be applying strict check in and out times, and we will be leaving a day between guests changing over. We will ensure the property is deep cleaned after each stay. Although disappointing, we have removed many soft furnishings from the property including large cushions , throws and ornaments for the highest hygiene standards. To ensure the highest clean possible, we will use a disinfectant spray on all soft furnishings that can't be laundered each time, eg settee, carpets, blinds, chairs, carpets. As we move out of the pandemic, we will continue to offer a deep clean and cushions / throws etc will be reintroduced

About the host

Host profile image
We bought this beautiful old bank, and turned it into a weekend home for our young family. We made it home and have made some very special memories and grew to love Alnmouth, and it's community. Now kids sport has taken over, we don't use it as much, so we are sharing it for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Gorgeous secluded property with private gated courtyard and outdoor fire for cosy nights outside. Right in the centre of the village with parking.

The loft room is accessible directly from the open plan lounge kitchen via a contemporary oak open space saver staircase.

Villeroy and Boch bathroom, with walk in rain shower
