Alnmouth, Northumberland.

Alnmouth is a village located at the mouth of the River Aln on the Northumberland Coast.

It is approx. 4 miles by road from Alnwick and 5.5 miles from Amble.

Alnmouth is a popular destination for tourists and day-trippers with its excellent beach, a golf course and a number of pubs / hotels. It is a good base for touring, being within easy reach of two of Northumberlands main castles at Alnwick and Warkworth, together with the many attractions of the Northumberland Coast.

The village was an important port until a huge storm in the early 1800's changed the flow of the River Aln and cut off the towns old church (the location of the church is marked by a large wooden cross visible across the river). Today the estuary is used by pleasure crafts and small fishing boats and is only accessible around high tide to those with good knowledge of the waters.

Alnmouth has it's own railway station nearby on the main East Coast Railway Line with regular trains stopping from Edinburgh and Newcastle. Bus services also run from Alnwick and Newcastle.
