Alnwick Pad sits right in the historic centre of Alnwick, Northumberland, inside the Malthouse development - a converted brewery turned into luxury flats. This modern apartment sleeps four across two bedrooms and offers flexible accommodation for couples or friends travelling together. A communal entrance leads to a lift or stairs up to the flat itself.

Alnwick's town centre is on your doorstep and the setting means everything is within walking distance. Guests have used the apartment as a base for walking in Hulne Park, with one guest even starting a Park Run from the front door. The historic streets, shops and eateries of Alnwick are all close by, making this a practical base for exploring without needing the car every day.

Inside, the open-plan living area has a sleek kitchen with integrated appliances, a dining table seating six and a lounge with a Smart TV. French doors open onto views of Pottergate Tower. The master bedroom has a super-king bed and en-suite shower room; the second bedroom has a zip-and-link super-king bed (can convert to twin) and uses the family bathroom. Both rooms have Smart TVs with complimentary Netflix. Private parking is provided for one car.

Alnwick Castle, Alnwick Gardens and Barter Books all sit within half a mile (5-10 minute walk), including the castle's Harry Potter film locations, the Poison Garden and Treetop dining. Alnmouth is 5 miles away (15 minutes drive) with sandy beaches and dune birdwatching. Seahouses, 15 miles off (25 minutes drive), is the departure point for Farne Islands boat trips. The Northumberland Coast Path runs nearby too, linking beaches and castles for those who fancy a longer walk.

This is a strong pick for couples or two pairs wanting a central, well-equipped base in Alnwick without a car dependency. Guests receive a complimentary bottle of wine and toiletries on arrival - a nice touch after the journey. Book today for a memorable stay at Alnwick Pad.
