Alnmouth

Explore this beautiful coastal village in Northumberland.

Alnmouth, Northumberland

Just a short drive away with its wide golden beach – perfect for sandcastle building, or just enjoying feeling the sand between your toes.

Gaily painted houses strung along the north bank of the River Aln estuary welcome you to a picturesque Alnmouth. Once an important grain port, a ferocious storm on Christmas Eve in 1806 altered the course of the river, stranding the harbour and changing village life forever.
