The historic village of Warkworth, with its magnificent Castle, St Lawrence Church and Market Square & Cross, offers a range of local amenities including excellent independent shops/post office, Art Gallery, cafes, pubs/restaurants, along with a village First School, Cricket Club and Golf Course. The river Coquet runs through the village to the Coquet Estuary & Marina at nearby Amble, used for a range of leisure activities, with the beach and sea close by with miles of beautiful sandy beaches.
Warkworth is a unique medieval village in Northumberland, enclosed in the loop of the river Coquet. Positioned at the top of the old street, the property looks downhill to other historic dwellings, pubs and shops, to an 12th century church. Right in the heart of this historic village, the house overlooks Warkworth Castle, not more than 50 metres away. The castle, with its dramatic cliff top position, is one of the most complete and finest examples of a medieval castle in the country. The village itself is a conservation area, with many buildings dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. Warkworth is part of the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and is admired by visitors and the media alike for its charm and beauty.
The village of Warkworth offers a friendly and vibrant community, with a strong sense of identity and tradition. It has a rich history, with connections to historical figures such as the infamous Harry Hotspur and more recently, the poet Laureate, Sir John Betjeman, who described Warkworth as 'the most perfect village in England'. The local community is active, with various events and festivals taking place throughout the year, including the Warkworth Festival of Performing Arts, Warkworth Autumn Festival and the Warkworth and Northumberland Show.
Warkworth is well positioned for access to the A1 and the larger towns of Alnwick, Morpeth and Newcastle upon Tyne, providing a wide range of shopping, cultural and leisure facilities. The nearby coastal towns of Amble and Alnmouth offer further amenities, including marinas, independent shops and restaurants, as well as being popular destinations for walkers, cyclists and birdwatchers.
