A Cottage Fit for a King
Located In a peacefully quiet, yet central village spot, yards from the picturesque riverbank and nestling at the foot of Warkworth Castle, beautiful stone-built Ceolwulph Cottage (pronounced "Seal-Wolf" and named after King Ceolwulph who reigned over the area in the 8th century) is located with 3 others at the end of a private cherry-tree lined drive. Awarded 5 Stars by Visit England and a prestigious GOLD AWARD for excellence.
A large conservatory and pretty, enclosed garden make this cottage ideal for families and couples alike at any time of the year. Sumptuously furnished, it has artwork and antiques and is equipped with everything we can think of to make your holiday as comfortable as possible. The local shops, pubs, galleries and restaurants are just a couple of minute's walk from the cottage, whilst Warkworth Beach is an easy 3/4 mile walk or short drive away.

"We have had a fantastic visit! It was home from home for us. Our little girls loved all the toys - Sophie declaring 'it's much better playing with other people's toys!' All very well equipped - great selection of music and videos. The tree was lovely and the Christmas decorations all lovely and tasteful. There has been a lot of thought and effort put into making this a great holiday 'home' and it was very much appreciated! Hope to be back soon!" The Valentine family from Hampshire
