Host & Stay | Old Reading Room
Entire home in Northumberland, United Kingdom
The space
Old Reading Room oozes character and charm throughout its spacious rooms. Retaining many features of the historic past, including beams and wooden floors, it is bursting with elegance and makes the perfect holiday let to gather with friends and family.The beautiful and impressively spacious living room has a feature fireplace housing an attractive wood burner, with period plate shelving around all the walls, used as storage for books. This is a delightful room and the hub of the home.
The individually designed, bespoke country kitchen has been custom made by a local kitchen maker and has granite and solid wood worktops as well as a large island and butler sink.
A fabulous wide central staircase with polished timber handrails leads to the first-floor landing with two skylights providing oodles of natural light and the exposed beams accentuate the historic nature of this gorgeous home.
The property features three bedrooms – one king, one double, and one twin. The master king features an ensuite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms have access to the main bathroom in the property.
The family bathroom offers a bathtub with separate shower, WC and basin, while the ensuite is home to a walk-in shower. On the ground floor, there is a third bathroom which acts as a wet room.
From the front gate, a long path meanders to the front of the property. To the side elevation there is a gorgeous south-facing, cottage-style garden, enjoying the sun from early morning until late evening, visited by barn owls at night. A separate enclosed garden can be found off from the cottage garden. Great for dogs, this is a generously sized space.

It was a cosy and peaceful house in a fantastic location. It felt like staying in a friend’s/relative’s home, which suited our group, but we did notice some dirt on the hob and some leftover belongings from a previous group that the cleaners had missed. I would stay again.

A beautiful stone house in a lovely, quiet area. We could walk down to Alnmouth direct from the cottage, and there was a good local pub and fantastic Community Shop a few yards away. The cottage was very clean with comfy beds and plenty of space for 4 of us. The outside space was good with an enclosed grass area great for dogs. Communications with the agents were prompt and very courteous. We were very happy with the cottage, but we didn’t mark as excellent as there was no toaster, and some of the guidance was inconsistent or unclear.

A very enjoyable stay at the Old Reading Room. A lovely house, very comfortable and with everything you need. Great location with village shop and pub a few minutes walk down the road, as well as Alnmouth and it's stunning beach / river setting a walkable distance or short drive away. Pizza from the Red Lion in Alnmouth and the deli are particularly recommended. Coastal villages up to Bamburgh are easily reachable, as well as Alnwick a short drive inland. Would recommend!
