About this property
Enjoying a wonderfully secluded position on the edge of the idyllic village of Alnmouth in Northumberland, Wellfield Lodge offers outstanding accommodation, which is ideal for a family holiday. The open-plan living space is really spacious with captivating features such as wood flooring, stylish chandeliers and an ornamental fireplace, all helping to create a beautifully inviting space. The seating area is suitably welcoming and you can imagine gathering here to enjoy quality time together, or just to chill out and watch TV. If you want an alternative space to hang out, then the conservatory offers the perfect spot with great views over the gardens, comfy seating, an iPod docking station and TV.
Step into the fully fitted kitchen and you will find everything you need to whip up delicious food for the whole family and the elegant dining area is cleverly positioned next to the feature windows which come complete with a stylish window seat overlooking the gardens. This is a wonderful place for enjoying long, lazy meals together. If the sun is shining, then the gardens are a fantastic spot for spending time alfresco eating, drinking and having fun. All that fresh air will hopefully have tired everyone out, so guests can choose from the king-size for the grown-ups and the twin for the children.
Both are rustic in style and offer the opportunity to relax in a calming ambience.

It provides a relaxing quiet holiday with its proximity to the sea and a variety of eating places an added bonus. There is a beautiful conservatory for the occasional damp day and there is use of the magnificent garden which is a haven for birds and is available not only for humans but also for dogs. Our dog Silver was ecstatic about it. We were devastated to be told that, due to the owners advancing years, this is the final year that it will be available. It will be a great loss to us.

We had a great stay and love the area, we have holidayed a lot on the north east coast. The house was warm and felt homely and very spacious. Lovely garden. We were slightly disappointed that there is no longer a wood burner in the home as this is something we enjoy and we feel it should have been reported in the details. Great position near the high street for pubs and shops and lovely 5 mins walk to the beach. Thank you
