Just 7 miles inland from Dunstanburgh View is the bustling market town of Alnwick, with its own dramatic castle (and film location for Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Academy).

We loved this little cottage which was warm and cosy.
We loved this little cottage which was warm and cosy. It is well equipped and you should want for nothing with plenty of information and games for wet weather days. It is located just 1 mile from Craster with a nice 6 mile walk from the doorstep, a lovely local pub in the village of Dunstan , a torch is recommended for the short walk along the unlit lane from the cottage. We did have a small problem which was sorted out by the owner very quickly so a 10/10 for that.We would certainly love to stay here again and hopefully in the near future. A great little cottage
