Platone Cottage is a well-received holiday rental in Alnmouth, praised for its cleanliness, prime location, and cosy atmosphere. Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful owners, the proximity to local amenities and the beach, and the thoughtful touches such as a welcoming bottle of wine. While compact, the cottage is equipped with essentials and is considered great value for money. The private parking, although tight, is a bonus in the village centre.
Guests consistently note the cottage as extremely clean and well maintained, indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is highly praised for being quiet yet central, with easy access to the beach, pubs, shops, and local attractions, making it an ideal spot for visitors.
The cottage is described as cosy and comfortable, with a particularly comfortable main bed. Some guests find the second bedroom a bit cramped and the beds there less comfortable, which slightly affects the overall comfort score.
The cottage is well-equipped with necessary facilities, including a full-sized fridge freezer and responsive heating. Some guests suggest the addition of Wi-Fi and note the tight parking, but overall the facilities meet guests' needs.
Many reviews mention thoughtful gestures such as a chilled bottle of wine and basic provisions on arrival. While these are greatly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are gestures of goodwill and not guaranteed with every stay.
This cosy, quaint bolthole can be found in the coastal village of Alnmouth. Sleeping 4, this cottage is pet friendly and is a great location for accessing the nearby beaches and amenities.
A very pretty coastal cottage tucked away in the delightful village of Alnmouth. Platone Cottage is in a great spot, with the beach on the doorstep and the village amenities close at hand. This pet friendly cottage is beautifully presented with painted boarded walls and pretty furnishings. Accommodation is over two floors with a couple of bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and cosy living area and kitchen dining room on the ground floor. Outside the property there’s a lovely courtyard garden, perfect for relaxing with a coffee over breakfast.
The cottage is close to the beautiful Heritage Coast and the historic market town of Alnwick. You may recognise Alnwick Castle as the location of Hogwarts from the Harry Potter movies. Nearby Alnwick Garden is well worth a visit, the brainchild of the Duchess of Northumberland. This is the perfect destination for an active holiday with golf, walking, cycling, sailing and horse riding all available locally.
