Take a Look Inside this Stylish Holiday Apartment on the Northumberland Coast
Sleeping four, The Pelican Loft is a hidden gem in the heart of Warkworth village

There’s also a separate dining space with a table for four.
The main bedroom (with a super king-size bed and an ensuite shower room) looks out over the centre of the village, The second bedroom also has a king-size bed, while the family bathroom is beautifully tiled with a rainfall shower over a full-size bath.
This luxury holiday cottage in Warkworth welcomes two small dogs (terrier size) or one large dog (no bigger than a labrador). Whilst there is no private, designated outside space, the riverbank is less than 100 yards away and is a perfect spot to enjoy a bottle of wine overlooking the river.

With a varied selection of gift shops, art gallery, patisserie and a choice of four pubs on the doorstep, not to mention the five-mile stretch of golden sandy beach just 15 minutes walk away too, you can simply leave the car and explore this beautiful part of Northumberland on foot.
