We have spent 6 nights in the Ocean Blue lodge. Dare to say that this was the best ever located place we have ever rented. The castle is literally around the corner. Pubs, restaurants within 10 mins walking distance.. or less. The town is charming, it is a lot to see... the shops are also very close, and still, the accommodation is very secluded, and in a quiet area. The lodge was clean, and tidy inside. The kitchen is well equipped, bathroom also very clean. However..the bed. It was very small, if there is an extra small double size exists, then it was that. (there is plenty of space for a bigger bed in that room). Outdoor sitting area. It was a disgrace... full of weed, neglected. Big glass windows were dirty from the outside. The sun heats up the building during the day, it could be very hot inside. No problem with parking, we always found space very close to the lodge. All in all we have had a great time there, and definitely would go back (if they replace the bed ;))

Perfectly situated - Alnwick Castle is literally around the corner! The lodge was clean, well furnished and calm. Would be nice also for a longer stay. The only thing you should be aware of: This is a professional owner, you have to pay extra for damage insurance. Also, you get a lot of messages.

Excellent location, very near Alnwick Castle. Right in the centre of the town yet very quiet. Cabin was just as expected with everything one could need. Decor was very contemporary and delightful. Parking was easy a short distance away by the Castle as advised. Overall we had a lovely holiday.

The accommodation was just right for us as a couple. Easy to find and centrally located. Parking was flagged up before we booked as possibly a problem but we didn't find this an issue. The layout was great and being at the end of the access way meant it was very quiet. There are plenty of restaurants and pubs in Alnwick, so being centrally located made access really easy. We had a great time.

The positives - The apartment is lovely and well equipped. It is in a fantastic spot walkable to everything! The negatives when it rained the guttering drainpipe was so loud it drowned out the TV. When the radiators were cooling down they made constant intermittent loud bangs which in the middle of the night disturbed sleep. On the day of checkout the cleaners arrived at 9:20 and were just about to let themselves in until I stopped them and asked then to come back. They signed and then sat outside until we left which was incredibly off putting. This was also disappointing as we were already losing an hour of our stay due to the clocks changing.
