Good value for money
The room was a nice size and good value. Plush towels and a rather large bed made nice touches. Everything was clean and tidy other than some high level cobwebs. The bathroom extractor wasn’t working which made for a humid bathroom but large window (and fan supplied in the room) in the bedroom alleviated it. I would stay again

-Nice and quiet...slept well.
- Nice breakfast both days.
Cons:

- Breakfast starts at 8.30...way too late for my liking.

Wished We Were There Longer!
We absolutely loved this place. What a beautiful room: comfy, beautifully decorated and furnished, good size bathroom with good shower and lovely products. All staff were incredibly friendly, smiley and helpful. We ate in the restaurant, the food was delicious and beautifully presented. Breakfast was also very good.

Ideal for a short stay
Ideal for a for short stay. Rooms are small but cosy. Got your bed, television, tea, coffee and kettle.
Plenty of storage spaces: wardrobes and drawers.
Ensuite bathroom (walk-in shower) as well.
A few breakfast options: cereal- help yourself, toast and cooked options available.
Parking is limited - they're are some free spaces several minutes walk away.
Staff - couldn't fault them. I would stay here again.

Comfortable room. Customer service poor.
Super room and excellent evening meal.
No parking onsite which we did know as we had researched it so we spent a time looking for a space in the village . We entered the hotel at a minute to 5 pm and I immediately tried to order some drinks on Happy Hour menu ( 3-5 pm) as it was my husband’s Birthday and he had driven a long distance. However we were told flatly that it was too late. No apologies or explanations despite the fact that it was before 5 pm when I asked.
Customer service with the staff was much to be desired apart from our waitress for the evening meal who was lovely.
On check out there was no Goodbye or checking if we had enjoyed ourselves!

Perfect 4 nights in Alnmouth
This was an inspired booking through Hotels.com. We had an excellent room (Lapwing), which gave us a lot of space. The weather was fantastic (snow on the beaches, zero temperatures and clear skies - excellent for walking).

Little disappointed
Positive feedback… Our evening meal was delicious, breakfast was great & the staff were friendly.
Negative. Caught the kitchen staff helping themselves to customers chips once the food has been plated.
Our room bed side table was full of biscuits crumbs and a stained coaster. The en-suite bin had the previous guests rubbish in it.
