About this house rental

Nestled in Berwick-upon-Tweed, this charming house for $235 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Georgian grade II listed terraced town house located within the Elizabethan ramparts in historic Berwick upon Tweed; England's most northerly coastal town, which has changed hands between England and Scotland 13 times. Visit Berwick and discover what was worth fighting for. The town boasts magnificent views over the Northumberland coast. Many walks start from the doorstep, along the preserved town walls, the coastal path to St Abbs, or beside the river, spotting seals by the town's three bridges. Berwick's narrow streets are filled with individual restaurants, pubs, shops and on the outskirts lie the main supermarkets. A five minute walk to The Maltings Art Centre, for cultural theatre, music and films. A short drive will take you to the town's leisure centre with wave pool and flume. Behind the house there are tennis courts and an 18 hole golf course. The main train line station has frequent trains to Newcastle (50mins), Durham or Edinburgh (45 mins). Nearby attractions include Holy Island Lindisfarne 10 miles, and Alnwick castle, garden and it's tree house restaurant 35 miles. The house itself sleeps 10, large enough for an extended family, or to meet up with friends; with all five bedrooms en-suite, it is able to offer comfortable sleeping accommodation for everyone. The house is located in a very quiet street,as mentioned in The Times newspaper in 2014. “ Located within the Elizabethan town walls and therefore an easy walk into the centre, but also backing onto a golf course and, beyond that, only a couple of minutes’ walk to the coast. Barbara Pentecost, of Smiths Gore, admires this quiet, gently sloping street both for its fabulous location and its “glorious” Georgian houses.” Best address: Britain's ten smartest streets, January 31st 2014 Due to the nature of the street EV charging is not possible at the property. There are plenty of public charging places in Berwick. 14th May 2016 Mrs Alizon Young The property was in a great location in a fascinating town, with easy access to the coast and lots of places to visit. The Lowry trail around the town is well worth doing. The house is great for the dog - a path leads from the road, very close to no. 40, right up onto the ramparts and access to beach and harbour. We were 8 adults and the house was certainly large enough for us all, with very pretty, comfortable bedrooms and lounge. Very well equipped throughout and beautifully presented. 2nd Apr 2016 Ms Trish Calderbank We are a mature group in all 8 of us stayed at varying times during the week and we had an excellent time. The cooking facilities are very good and we enjoyed every evening in the dining room having our meals. The washing machine and dryers were also very useful as we were completinh the Northumberland coastal path and got very wet a couple of days. 26th Mar 2016Mr Kevin McNally The location of the house was perfect quiet but within walking distance of everything. 22nd Dec 2015Mrs Una Connolly Ravensdowne is an ideal holiday home for friends or family holidays get together. The fact all rooms were en suite was a huge bonus and the beds were very comfortable. The house was well furnished, warm and very well equipped. It is a lovely place to celebrate Christmas, with lots of room for everyone to eat together, we actually had 14 for dinner on Boxing Day! The location was ideal, very close to the town centre and the beach. We did a good deal of sightseeing around the local area.

We could not have been more fortunate in choosing Ravensdowne as the location to celebrate a 60th birthday. Truly a home from home. Chris gets our prize for the best host; unfailingly helpful, prompt with replies to any and all questions. Giving great information both regarding Ravensdowne and places of interest and, always important, recommendations of where to eat and drink. If you want a place to stay with a large group that is well maintained, clean, with all you need for an enjoyable, relaxing trip you have found it in Ravensdowne. We cooked and ate as easily as at home; which from experience is not always possible in holiday accommodation and we like to cook. Plenty of cooking equipment, crockery, cutlery. Space for groceries. We ate out in Berwick and the surrounding area, splendid meal at The Queens Head in Berwick. Another lovely meal in the Lord Crewe in Bamburgh. There are marvellous walks, places of interest, history and phenomenal beauty. Thank you Chris and your ladies who keep Ravensdowne in tiptop condition for us to enjoy.

Amazing holiday in Berwick
Amazing holiday in Berwick
We had a wonderful stay at Chris’ property in Berwick. The house was perfect for our family which included children, teenagers and dogs! The house was the perfect space for us with a large living room with enough furniture for us all to have a seat, a fantastically stocked kitchen - plenty of crockery, cutlery, utensils, pots and pans and a big fridge and freezer - we loved the fact that each room had its own bathroom which was perfect for the number of staying in the house. The little courtyard garden was a perfect little space and an excellent sun trap. We were blessed with great weather and all left with sun tans! The dining room was also a perfect size with a large table which all 9 of us fitted around with plenty of room. The house was very clean and tidy when we arrived and was just fabulous! The house is in a fantastic location, just a short few minutes walk from all shops, restaurants, cafes, beach and scenic walks. We did a Tesco delivery order for the day we arrived which worked out brilliantly. Berwick itself is absolutely beautiful with gorgeous beaches, lovely walks and stunning views everywhere you look. I highly recommend this beautiful little town for families with children and dogs and this fabulous house. It was the perfect stay and we can’t wait to return! Thanks Chris, you were a wonderful host and we had the best holiday ever!

We really enjoyed our two week visit to historic Berwick, September 2020. Ravensdowne is a lovely & very quirky house which couldn't be in a better location for sightseeing. It’s convenient for Berwick, and so easy to get to the beautiful SE Scottish & Northumberland coastlines. Great to have all bedrooms en-suite + a downstairs loo. We really loved the little garden area off the dining room. There was lots of useful kitchen equipment - all thoroughly used. Lots of positives but there are little issues & we’ve already had useful owner responses to our feedback. Also, WiFi certainly needs an upgrade & an extension; Parking - with 3 cars & only one parking permit, over 2 weeks the walks to move the other cars got a little wearing (even if all parking is free). Many Thanks to owner Chris for being extremely helpful and available to answer all our questions. Thanks also for all the useful information about the locality waiting for visitors in the lounge.

This was a great property, right in the heart of the town and yet really quiet. We had people ranging from age 13 to 80 and had no problems at home or in the things we did, from Alnwick Garden, Lindesfarne, Edinburgh and St Abbs. Communication with our host was excellent, 5 stars all round

Stayed here early August 2020. Quiet street but very central for all amenities in Berwick and with easy walks to beach and lighthouse nearby. Very well equipped house and Chris was a fab host. Always on hand for answers to questions.
