“We were particularly keen to use a staircase.”

We couldn't find one. The person on call asked us if we had requested one!how could we do this if we had not seen the place! Three days later someone phoned and invited me yo go to an office to resolve the problem! As we were leaving, we found one under a bed!

“One toilet did not flush.”

Reported it but no action. Towel rail not working even though we followed all instructions. Reported but no action. No place for soap by the bath. Tried the window sill but not waterproof so showed marks straight away. Wardrobe too narrow to hang clothes. No floor brush. Vacuum cleaner totally ineffective. Nowhere to store food in kitchen. Fridge too small to cope with the occupancy claimed. Parking, a nightmare. The cleaners told us they had already reported the faulty toilet a week before. Alnmouth is a lovely place but would not recommend Pilots Rest. Over priced for what you get.

“Comfortable and handy accommodation in the centre of Alnmouth.”

Minor maintenance problems speedily dealt with by local agent. Some guidance on the obscure parking regulations would be helpful. An ideal location for the Northumberland coast.

“Perfectly acceptable base to explore Northumberland coast.”

Property slightly let down by cleanliness standards. Also in need of a little maintenance. Overall happy and would stay again if these small things were improved upon.

“Great location on the main street close to shops bars and restaurants.”

Nice authentic feel with coastal decor and good views over the river. Good size with three bedrooms and good size living room diner, which is upstairs. The main bedroom is adjacent the kitchen diner/living room tv, which makes it a noisy room to sleep in, in general. Heating was on extremely low when we got there so the property was super cold, which was a bit uncomfortable in January. The living room could do with a re-jig so the sofas face the river view rather than have your back to it. No bins in bathrooms etc. All small issues, but all commented on by the people in our party. In general tho, we enjoyed the property, it’s a perfect location for the coastal area, walking, cycling and local facilities.

“Excellent location, once you know the parking regime in Alnmouth.”

Good sized rooms and comfortably furnished. Younger family members would have liked Wi-Fi but I didn't find it a problem to use The Red Lion's.

“We have stayed twice at this property for winter breaks.”

It is a lovely and spacious cottage, just off the main street and a short stroll to the beautiful beach.

Nowadays the area has returned to its unspoilt origins and offers a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as an excellent “links” golf course and some great rivers for fishing, as well as boasting miles and miles of splendid beaches and sand dunes to explore which afford stunning views of the North Sea. A short drive will bring you to Alnwick with its famous historic castle, The Alnwick Garden housing the Poison Garden which runs guided tours through dangerous botanicals and a variety of pubs and restaurants.
