Northumberland coast
The hotel was lovely and the town of Alnmouth was very nice too , food in the restaurant was very nice with good service. The only downside was the smell from the kitchen made its way into our room from the vents outside our window.

Lovely hotel, great staff.
We booked a one night stay in August and were so pleased to have done so. Our arrival --early , was met with " cannot book in until 4pm" which was a disappointment and unusual . However at 4pm were greeted by very helpful staff who sorted out our faulty TV . Dinner was very good and breakfast also. A really good stay in a lovely hotel.

Short stay
This was a last minute change of plan, the hotel is excellent. Parking for about 3-4 cars round the back, we were in an x-trail and there was a Disco Sport there but I think anything bigger might be a struggle. Room was spotless, not much space for clothes if you were there for a while. Staff were excellent, breakfast very good and the location is great. About 5 minutes walk to the beach
