Coach House
Formerly the old coach house for the Lesbury Estate, a great deal of thought has gone into the development of this property and the result is a perfect fusion of comfort and elegance with meticulous attention to detail.
The ground floor has immediate impact opening up into a generous open plan living space which flows seamlessly from the high spec catering kitchen with granite surfaces, walnut bar and wine fridge to a superb dining space which seats eight comfortably.
With high vaulted ceilings, the property has grand proportions yet retains warmth and intimacy with a double-sided wood burner connecting the dining area to the sitting area, all beautifully balanced with original stonework, rich oak floors and beams, vintage leather and Harris Tweed to introduce warmth and texture to this incredibly atmospheric space.
The four en-suite bedrooms are serene and streamlined featuring a neutral colour palette and high quality finishes which perfectly complements the rest of the property. Super king beds, luxurious duck down duvets, high quality White Company bed linen and underfloor heating in the bathrooms all add to the feeling of quality and well-being.
For country sports enthusiasts, facilities include a boot room (with underfloor heating) and gun cabinet, with kennels and stables available to guests at additional cost. Outside, there is a private courtyard with outdoor seating for al-fresco dining and summer barbecues, external storage, a communal garden, and off-street parking for four vehicles.
The cosy, country pub The Coach Inn is just a short stroll from the cottage in the centre of Lesbury – a great spot for a relaxing drink or hearty pub meal after a beach walk or country hike (Open Wednesday – Sunday).

Location
Something of a hidden gem in the Northumberland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the pretty coastal village of Alnmouth is nestled along the north bank of the River Aln estuary. Dubbed the Tobermory of Northumberland, pastel-coloured cottages line the waterfront while the sweeping golden sands of Alnmouth beach are perfect for walks away from the crowds amidst diverse birdlife.
The village offers a lively selection of pubs, restaurants, independent shops, and galleries and hosts numerous events through the year, including the summer Arts Festival and the Beer Festival in October. Fast trains from Edinburgh and London stop at Alnmouth train station just over a mile outside the village, making it an ideal place for a coastal getaway without a car.
The historic town of Alnwick lies just five miles down the road, where you’ll find several welcoming pubs, a farmer's market, and the popular attractions of Alnwick Castle and The Alnwick Garden. Further popular spots along the Northumbrian coastline are also within easy reach, such as Bamburgh Castle and the Farne Islands which is seasonally populated by hundreds of seals and puffins.
