Very central for Alnwick Castle and Alnwick gardens. Both were wonderful. Also only a short drive to a great beach at Alnmouth

Lovely house, I was impressed with the space and location. Parking right outside and permits provided. Some great helpful touches - I liked the nightlights both upstairs and downstairs, children’s plates and cutlery and highchair. It falls short of a 5 star review for me for 2 reasons. This property has a very high cleaning fee and I did find a few hairs in the bath and a toenail in the living room! I also find it so frustrating when there are not adequate curtains or blinds in bedrooms. My 5 year old was up at 5am insisting it was time to get up because of the amount of light the blinds let in. The location is brilliant and one of the main reasons I booked to stay here, would definitely recommend for exploring Alnwick and the surrounding areas.

Had a great time, nice house and good location. A couple of things that could be improved: there was not a lot of crockery in the kitchen, which meant we had to run the dishwasher frequently. The second point is the £30 insurance against damage which seemed very unnecessary and something I never had on AirB&B before. Still a nice place though, with simple opportunities to improve the overall feel.

We loved the house which was stylish, characteristics and homely at the sametime.

I was surprised to be asked for a further payment and more personal details after I had booked (an insurance waiver or a insurance deposit with admin fees). When I questioned this, as we were both covered by Aircover I was told it was clear in the house rules, I missed this. I asked if I had to pay they said no but I wouldn't get the check in details until I had. With 'strict' cancellation terms I would have lost a lot of money if I cancelled. There was a £110 cleaning fee and I spent an hour cleaning the kitchen contents when we arrived, it was grubby with dirty cutlery etc. I had lots and lots of messages from the hosting company but when I asked a specific question about what I should bring the owner never replied. The cottage wasn't decorated in a sympathetic way to the period. It was styled by Ikea, this works for some but it made it seem soulless for me. Lots of blank white photo frames and fake plants (33 I counted) Alnick is stunning.

Really cosy and clean cottage for me and my family to stay at. The location is right at the heart of Alnwick and you can easily walk to the castle and the gardens and around town. Such a lovely wee place and can highly recommend.

Lovely cottage, very comfortable and in easy reach of the town centre. If I had to criticise anything it would be that we had to wash our own towels in order to have clean towels for the duration of our stay, can I suggest that if someone is staying for a week then a towel change halfway through the stay would be in order. One other thing I would suggest is a small welcome pack, just a couple of biscuits and some milk in the fridge so after travelling you can make a cup of tea. A small gesture but one that would have been very appreciated.
