Turnstone Malthouse sits on the first floor of a converted malthouse right in the centre of Alnwick, Northumberland. This apartment sleeps four across two bedrooms and comes with a fully operational lift as well as stairs, so access is easy for everyone. The building dates back to its working malthouse days, giving it a real sense of history behind its modern finish. Big windows give views across the town from the open-plan living space.

Alnwick itself is a historic market town with shops, pubs and restaurants all within a two-minute walk. The coast lies within five miles and Alnmouth's golden sandy beach is just four miles east. Head west and you'll find Rothbury, a small town at the foot of the Simonside Hills next to the River Coquet. Fishing, golf, horse riding and cycling are all available nearby.

The apartment is all on one floor. A bright hallway leads into an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with two sofas and a Freeview Smart TV. The kitchen has sleek white gloss units, a breakfast bar and a coffee machine. Bedroom one has a kingsize bed and its own ensuite with a walk-in shower. Bedroom two also has a kingsize bed. A second bathroom with a bath sits between the two rooms.

Alnwick Castle is yards from the front door and Harry Potter fans will recognise it as a filming location for Hogwarts. The Alnwick Garden, with its Grand Cascade waterfall and Europe's largest tree house, is close by too. Alnmouth beach is a short drive east (around 10 minutes), while Rothbury and the Simonside Hills make for a good half-day out west.

Turnstone Malthouse suits couples or small families wanting to be right in the middle of Alnwick's history, with the castle on the doorstep and the coast a short drive away. Book today for a memorable break in Alnwick.
