I stayed at this property for just three nights because I needed a break away from Manchester city life. The property is stunning. It was spotlessly clean. Everything is very much quality - even the taps! The towels, robes, bedding, again, all discernibly high quality. There were lots and lots of towels which made me feel looked after. I very much appreciated all the shower gels, shampoo, hair conditioners and body conditioners that were in abundance. I had far more than I actually needed. They looked carefully sourced. There were also hand moisturizing creams in helpful places, such as the kitchen. There were also lovely diffuser sticks around and about the place - a thoughtful touch. I also very much enjoyed Alexa! Wifi worked immediately for me, no bother which was another plus. The only slight problem I had was I didn't realize that I needed to give the front gate a good push - the person delivering the post helped me. And then I couldn't actually find the black box with the code for the key - I assumed it would be by the front door but it isn't. Again, the post-person helped me. But this is really minor, and I'm a bit rubbish at this kind of thing anyway. Everyone in the village was amazingly friendly and helpful. The village store just opposite was epic - they sell everything! There are truly fab places to eat also in the village. The beach is two minutes away and mesmerizing!! I can't recommend this place enough!!!

The property had everything including a private walled garden, a fully equipped kitchen with all the paraphernalia and white goods. You were not aware that you were in the centre of a busy village with all the necessary shops, pubs etc within a few yards. Contact with the host is to be commended.

Beautiful holiday house, nicely decorated. Cute village with quite some options for dinner and tea. Village shop/post office is nice for the basic groceries. really liked the delicatessen shop down the street. Beach at 5 minute walk. Also parking was easy

The property is in the heart of this lovely village with easy access to all local amenities, including the excellent children’s play park, village store, beach and estuary. Despite its central location, it is secluded and quiet, with plenty of room to relax outside if the weather allows. The accommodation is small, but perfectly formed to a high standard and is kitted out with all the equipment and utensils you are likely to need. The host responded quickly to all communications and bent over backwards to be helpful. Highly recommended all round.

The property was perfect, the rooms were spotless and presented in a very professional way. The kitchen was a great size with a breakfast bar for dining and the toilet/shower room was of a very high standard. The location was great and access to the town and beach was less than a couple of minutes walk, there is a parking space within the confines of the property and ample outdoor dining space if needed. We would absolutely recommend this to a couple or small family, Helen the host was so helpful and was always happy to answer any queries.

A Lovely little cottage with all the tech you need in great location and our own gardener (Ted). We had a great time in a great little town. Only teeny issue was that Master bedroom is up very steep stairs so we snuggled up in the other bedroom: otherwise can’t fault a thing. Helen was really easy to contact and enable access.

My husband, my 8 year-old daughter and I just had a week's stay at Fossil Bank. The cottage is really well equipped, beautifully decorated and super cosy. We loved the garden and secure parking, and the location on the high street but so close to the beach was brilliant. We had a slight hiccup on checking in, but it was sorted asap by Helen, who was an excellent host. Would thoroughly recommend a stay here. Thanks Helen!

Fossil Bank is a delightful cottage in a very pretty village. Beautifully furnished, really well equipped, and our granddaughter was absolutely thrilled with the treats for us on our arrival. Giant Toblerone and fun sized treats, child heaven. The adults were quite delighted too! We would happily have a return visit to Fossil Bank, a great location for exploring the area. Lots to keep children and adults busy, great places to eat in the village. Enjoyed our visits to Alnwick, Warkworth Castle and village, Amble. Would recommend the village treasure hunt bought from the Post Office across the road, great way to explore the village. Our granddaughter loved it!

Relaxing week away in delightful space in Fossil Bank. The owners have thought of every little touch. Home from home. We can’t wait to return in the Autumn. We love Alnmouth & the beaches are amazing. A very special place to visit.

Fossil Bank is a wonderful property, right on the high street, but completely private, minutes from the beautiful beach. My friends and I had a wonderful time, we loved all the special touches that Helen had put in place and from a practical perspective it had everything we needed (the parking spaces were very welcome). Alnmouth is a great location, we easily managed trips to so many amazing places such as Craster, Cragside, Alnwick castle and gardens, Bamburgh Castle to name just a few. Definitely recommend.

Our stay at Fossil Bank was definitely helped by the beautiful weather, so we could fully enjoy the beach and surrounding area. The courtyard area was fantastic to sit out in at all times of the day and has a very Mediterranean feel. The cottage is beautiful, with lots of little extras - little luxurious touches but also lots of practical extras too. The local shops were friendly and well stocked; our daughter sampled a few different flavour ice creams from the nearby shop. We had a wonderful week at Fossil Bank and would love to return. Helen is incredibly helpful and friendly in her emails, which makes a big difference too. Thank you xxx

Superbly located and equipped property. Contact from Helen before and during stay was excellent. Highly recommend. Only challenge is the stairs to the main bedroom using ladder type stairs - but we slept downstairs so all was fantastic. Thanks so much

Love Alnmouth and its never ending beaches. House location wonderful, house small bt very good. Suggest it is not suitable for elderly folk(we are 85 and 84) as the stairs are awkward to negotiate and the slippery shower floor necessitates that there should be a bar to hold on to

We couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay. The property was modern, but characterful, and right in the centre of the lovely village of Alnmouth. Every thing was provided that you could possibly need, and felt like a home from home. Thanks for a great stay.

Stylish little bolt hole in the centre of Alnmouth

Stylish little bolt hole in the centre of Alnmouth

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our two children (8 & 11) in this lovely stylish little cottage. The kids loved the raised and enclosed garden, the short walk down the hill to the beach and the lovely park overlooking the harbour all within minutes away. The cottage itself is immaculate, with all the mod cons you’d need. The bathroom is on the ground floor (not a problem for us) but the stairs to the master bedroom are very steep, so wouldn’t be suitable with very young children or those with impaired mobility. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and the post office and shop directly opposite, it couldn’t be in a more central location for all amenities, and the private parking and courtyard is a godsend. All in all in a wonderful stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fossil Bank. Whilst the property is compact it has absolutely everything you could possible need and more. Everything is lovely quality and very clean. It is a short walk to the beach, the village shop is opposite and there are bistros and a deli to enjoy. There is a nice out door space, which we can imagine would be great in summer time. Whilst we never met Helen, she was extremely helpful and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend for people to stay here.

Lovely getaway on the North Sea coast

Lovely getaway on the North Sea coast

We very much enjoyed our stay in Alnmouth. Communication in advance from Helen was excellent so there were no surprises when we arrived and we were able to park straight outside. The house is well-equiped and to a high standard, so if you want to eat in, there is a good range of equipment for cooking. Location is excellent, across the road from the shop if anything is needed (range from veg to local beers) and 100m from the sea. Ideal for walking along the coast and we made it to both Dunstanburgh and Warkworth castles on foot. If you're looking for a relaxing break in Northumberland, this is a great house in an ideal spot.
