The apartment is excellent. Stylish, comfortable and clean. Good location for the area. There was a welcome basket of milk, tea, biscuits and wine. Appreciated that. There is information about the area and we enjoyed a lovely walk along the river with views of Alnwick Castle. The one negative was access to the parking bay. The directions are not clear. The key fob opens the door to the garage under the main part of the building, you then leave by a side door through the glass atrium. The garage door recognises cars not humans so you can drive in and out, but as a pedestrian you have to go in and out via the main building foyer door and the side door to the garage. This was explained to us by a rather irate neighbour. Could have done without that. The guidance for the property needs to be improved to avoid unnecessary annoyance to residents and guests. Otherwise the stay was fine.

The apartment is fantastic, is in a great location to all of the local attractions so you don’t need to use your car and then close enough to the motorway so you can get to Alnmouth, Banburgh and the Holy Island so you can make the most of your visit.

Fantastic apartment with everything you could need, with a short walk to the town centre with plenty of pubs and restaurants. This was our first stay and won't be the last.
