Location
21 West Turnpike is located on the edge of Glanton, a peaceful village surrounded by glorious Northumberland countryside. It overlooks Whittingham Vale and south towards Thrunton Woods. The market town of Alnwick is only 9 miles away and has a rich heritage, revealed through an array of fine period architecture around the cobbled marketplace and surrounding streets and dominated by the nationally acclaimed Alnwick Castle and gardens. It provides a wide range of local services and amenities including supermarkets, a veterinary surgery, a hospital, golf course and numerous public houses and restaurants. There is a wide range of grocery and specialist shops including a delicatessen, antique shops, gift shops, florists and many more. For schooling, there is the nearby Whittingham Church of England Primary school and within Alnwick, first class schooling for all ages. The nearby countryside is home to some of the region's outdoor leisure gems. The rich rural surroundings within Northumberland include Cragside, Brinkburn Priory and Wallington Hall, while some of the country's finest natural beauty spots including the Northumberland National Park and the dramatic Northumberland Coastline, are a short drive away. For commuters the nearby A697 trunk road provides direct access to Newcastle. Railway stations at Alnmouth or Morpeth provide regular services to Newcastle and Edinburgh, which link to main line services to other major UK cities north and south. Newcastle International Airport is also within reach.
