We would like to introduce you to our much loved holiday home.  Riverview is a spacious, detached, single storey cottage which is fully furnished and equipped to an extremely high standard.  It is situated in the historical and picturesque Northumbrian Village of Warkworth overlooking the River Coquet. 

We started going to Northumberland for our holidays in 1999, fell in love with Warkworth on our first visit and Riverview was our first experience of accommodation in the village.  After this, we were spoilt for staying anywhere else and continued to go at least twice a year until 2002, when we had the opportunity to buy Riverview ourselves.  Needless to say, we jumped at the chance.  From comments in the Visitors’ book, we knew that most guests felt the same as we did about the cottage.  We believed that we could improve still further on what was already excellent accommodation and since 2003, we have been continuously awarded 5 stars by the Visit Britain Scheme.  We still holiday there ourselves each year and are personally committed to maintaining a high level of accommodation and providing an excellent service to our guests.  Our success is confirmed by the continuing high level of occupancy and the number of guests who return each year.

Anyway, back to the cottage itself!  Stunning views across the river can be enjoyed whilst relaxing in the conservatory at the front of the cottage, as well as studying the varied wild-life that pass by, either on the river itself or on its banks.  The nature watch in recent years has included deer, foxes, herons, cormorants and a wide variety of ducks and waders, including Goldeneye, Goosanders and Redshank.  In addition, there are the seals which regularly swim up the river from Amble at high tide to catch their daily quota of salmon.
