Chris and Margaret offer a warm and friendly welcome at their Georgian grade 11 listed house dating back to 1752 and still retaining some original features .....
Tower House is a Grade II listed building circa 1752 situated in the heart of Warkworth Village. Directly opposite Tower House is the medieval castle of Warkworth, once home to the Percy family, the Earls (and later Dukes) of Northumberland.
Warkworth Village is situated approximately seven miles south of Alnwick and is in an ideal position for touring the stunning
Northumberland coastline with its numerous beaches and the magnificent countryside with its natural beauty. Whether you enjoy walking, cycling or just driving you will find something of interest in Northumberland to suit all ages.
In Warkworth itself there are a good selection of restaurants and public houses where after a long day of touring the sights of Northumberland you can relax and enjoy a meal with possibly a glass or two of what you fancy and join in the conversation with the locals...
If you decide to spend a day in Warkworth itself there are a number of different walks around the village, either down by the River Coquet which loops Warkworth Village or maybe you would prefer to walk the short distance to our lovely beach just past the local golf club, you could even take the short boat journey across the River Coquet to the Hermitage which is a chapel directly cut out of the rock which dates back to 1400 where legend has it a knight disappointed in love retired from this world to the chapel.
Warkworth Village has quite a few interesting shops where you may purchase local artwork, jewellery or curiosities to remind you of your stay in Northumberland.
Margaret and Chris have been in the hospitality business for quite a while, they had their own public house in the pretty village of Lesbury which is next to Alnmouth Village three miles north of Warkworth for eleven years and will be more than happy to advise you of local attractions and events in Northumberland.
A warm Northumbrian welcome awaits you at our lovely Georgian home.
