Clean, tidy and a great location. Car port was a fantastic bonus. Beds were very comfortable. Walking distance to Alnwick castle and gardens. Would definitely go back.

Delightful cottage nestled on a quiet Mews centrally located for all town amenities. Tastefully decorated and furnished the owner has put a lot of effort into making sure guests are comfortable and content. Ample kitchen equipment, plenty of storage upstairs for clothing, ambient temperature day and night and cool cotton bedlinen together with soft fluffy towels. What more could you ask for?A lovely place to relax, equally ideal for easy travel connections across the area with the local bus station only five minutes walk away for those who wish to venture out and about. The addition of a dedicated gated and locked parking area an advantage, could be a little tricky getting in if driving a large family car, not due to the space itself which is roomy but the narrow lane entry leading up to it if other drivers are not considerate or perhaps don't realise the parking area is where it is? Did spot parking cones in the garage which could come in handy. Did not deter us and would not prevent us from rebooking in the future. Chapel View in our opinion is the 'Jewel in the Crown' in Alnwick and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Book early would be our advice!
