I had a very pleasant stay here. It’s a solid choice if you are looking for a reliable and affordable base in the area.
The price is very reasonable, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities are well-maintained and provide everything you need for a comfortable stay.
While the hotel itself is great, please be aware that the location requires some planning. It is a bit of a distance from both Alnmouth Railway Station and Alnwick Castle.
Public transport (buses) in this area is very limited and infrequent. I highly recommend checking the timetables in advance and leaving plenty of buffer time to ensure you don’t miss your connections.
Bed very low and hard bedhead curved so pillows fall down behind. Breakfast advertised 17.50 when went they charged you for individual items which turns out very expensive. Parking only 7 cars free in underground carpark. Bar has awful draught beer if you like beer with lemon flavour your ok. Asked for sofa bed for other guest when arrived not set up or bedding. After paying alot of money for 1 night stay thought ot wd be good. Sorry but i would not book this hotel again
Love the breakfast; and the size of room and attached bathroom. Room cleaninless can be further improved upon (e.g. fallen insects on window sills, dusty fan etc.). Amenities would have been better if there is greater public indoor area (e.g. restaurant/pub area) that is more open/flexible for guests to retreat to over extended hours (e.g. for usage of public wifi to connect to internet). Overall, it's a convenient site for a good night's rest!
Really enjoyed my first stay. Staff were very pleasent.
Breakfast was pleantiful and well presented.
You must have your own transport as there were no buses.
There's too much of a long walk into Alnwick by the A1 mortorway. That's not very pleasent or safe.
The only issue I had was with the awlful television (It certainly needs updating) in the Cart Shed accommodation. The hand controller was useless.
Arrived late afternoon and hungry. The manager recommended the pork belly Sunday roast and I was not disappointed 😍 room was good for the price. Bed very comfy and easy access to car when I needed to unpack later after arrival and dinner.
Car park entrance is a great challenge for all drivers which I passed.
Thank you for the hospitality
Amazing and simple place to stay. Immaculately clean - the bathroom was so tidy and smelled very nice. If you're planning to have a nice dinner there - the tavern provides priority sitting for the guests of the Inn - so you'll get a table even if it's busy. Very friendly and helpful staff too. Perfect for a short stay.
Lovely pub style hotel in glorious surroundings. Food is excellent. The rooms are rather small but functional. By the way, if both of you are over 80 kgs, I suggest two beds. As this is Northumberland, you will find the drying room a great find. The brewery bar is really good. Enjoy the Hadrian Wall close by.
