About this property

Finest Retreats | Quail's Nest Cottage

Quails Nest Cottage is a newly built holiday let, completed in 2019 with some stunning views out over the Northumbrian countryside. The property is pet-friendly and with plenty of walks from the doorstep is an ideal location for families, couples and walkers. With the nearest beach only 10 miles away, it's also ideal for those wanting the mix of a coastal and country retreat.

The cottage is open-plan which maximises the space and light throughout. Guests arrive in to the large kitchen-living area with the dining table around to the side. The kitchen comes equipped with all the amenities required for a comforrtable self-catering stay away while the log burner in the living room adds to the ambience during the cooler autumn and winter evenings. There is underfloor heating throughout.

The master bedroom has a double bed with an en suite with a bath with shower over and an electric towel heater. The second bedroom is a twin room, also with its own en suite with a stunning walk-in shower and electric towel heater.

Inside the rear entrance is a very handy utility room with a washing machine, ironing board and clothes dryer which is ideal for stripping off the wet & muddy clothes after a day in the country or on the beach.

Outside, the stunning views from the terrace and outdoor furniture make it a perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine and watch the sunset of an evening. The garden is enclosed which makes it ideal for those with pets and/or small children. There is private off-road parking for 2 cars.

Edlingham is a small hamlet approximately six miles southwest of the popular tourist town of Alnwick. Despite it's small size, there is plenty of historical interest and plenty of footpaths dotted around. The medieval church of St John the Baptist is well worth a visit while
beside the church is the striking ruin of 13th-century Edlingham Castle. Much of it is in ruin, but the striking solar tower still rises to a considerable height. Just behind the castle runs an imposing Victorian-era viaduct, which dominates the green valley.

Quails Nest
John the owner was such a lovely man and went over and beyond making us 2 cakes and bringing them round. His stories were great. The cottage was in idyllic surroundings. Maybe a shelf in the shower for gels and shampoo

Relaxing stay
We had a most relaxing stay at this lovely property. It was clean, comfortable and more than lived up to our expectations. Rosie and John are excellent hosts and the property is a real home from home with everything you need. Our dog loved the safely enclosed garden and we enjoyed the wonderful views!
