A handy good value guest house with friendly host in great location

Excellant locaton and comfortable room which was booked at very short noticd so was very grateful, parking outside

The pillows were terrible and could easily be replaced.. old and hard. Shame, and im not fussy but they were bad. There is no breakfast, maybe the option of some croissants that guests could collect nice touch??

Great location and great hospitality.

The room was pleasantly decorated, the bed was very comfortable, the hospitality tray was perfect, the bathroom had everything we needed. Our hosts were kind and caring, going out of their way to be helpful.

It's hard to think of anything we didn't like. The only unpleasant thing was the attempt at a scam attached to the booking.com website when we booked our room. That attempted to get us to click on a link and pay a deposit to ensure reservation of our room. I knew that a deposit had not been requested when I booked, so avoided being conned. I think that the responsibility for this lay with booking.com and not Castle Gate.

A Must Stay Guesthouse

This is an exceptionally wonderful place to stay. Everything was perfect and ran like clockwork. The hostess was very helpful without being overbearing. Everywhere was clean. In addition, Alnwick is a lovely town with a wonderful castle and secondhand book shop.

A warm friendly welcome, and an ideally sited location for visiting Alnwick and the surrounding area

For visiting Alnwick and the surrounding area this is the perfect location. Set in the centre of the Town, 10mins or so walk from the Castle and the Gardens and also ideal for the local amenities - shops, Pubs, Local Market Day etc. Also a very short walk away from Barter Books. The rooms are small but cosy, quiet, have a small fridge, Iron, Ironing Board, Hairdryer and Tea & Coffee making facilities. Very comfy bed and whilst a little on the small side, the ensuite covers all needs. This was a Bed only stay so cannot comment on Breakfast. No other meals provided but there's a fantastic selection of eating places within short walking distance. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and Jo is a lovely Landlady.

There is off street parking but only for two cars and there are 6 rooms available. I didn't ask Jo what the arrangements were - did she have only two rooms booked at a time or is it a "first come, first served" basis for parking. There is parking out on the street, however this is a single yellow line road, so parking is time restricted.

Jo, the owner, was very nice, made a point of introducing herself.

Excellent location on the main road, but noise not a problem. Great shower. Nice room.

Bathroom was cramped, squeaky floorboards.

Convenient for Castle and town

Owner was lovely and room was clean. Nice to be able to park at front of property. Only 5 minutes walk from Castle or town

Bedroom and particularly shower room very small. All floors creaked badly, and walls thin, so lots of noise. Soft mattress that leaned into middle

Loved our holiday but the room needs a good clean and ensuite needs a refit.

Location central for Alnwick. Jo was extremely helpful and friendly. The room was large enough as it was the family room with an extra single bed. Coffee, tea, milk supplies and a fridge in the room.

Free parking was at the Plough Inn opposite, very tight for larger cars to get through the archways. The family bedroom (No.4) needed a good deep clean, dust and hoover in all the corners etc and the ensuite needs a refit, flooring uneven, lots of sealant even inside on the floor of shower enclosure tray. Not much room to sit on the toilet as it’s right next to the basin, we are slight so for anyone larger it would be a squeeze.

7.0 / 10.0

Jo is a very welcoming host. Unfortunately the standard of cleanliness was a negative.

The owner Jo was lovely; very friendly and welcoming. The location was great; easy access to pubs, restaurants and local amenities. Easy to park; as Jo has an arrangement with local pubs, and her guests can use their parking facilities.

Unfortunately, the standard of cleanliness in the room was poor. Bins in bedroom and shower room not emptied daily. No sign of hygiene in the shower room. The shower room was very cramped.

Fabulous stay in Alnwick

fabulous location plus parking on site. Lovely bright comfortable room with lovely outlook. spotlessly clean and they made sure there were sufficient towels and tea/coffee each day. There was everything we could need. can't wait until our next visit.

6.0 / 10.0

nice location but a small room.

Jo is very nice and the location is super.

The room is quite small, especially the toilet and shower area. We stayed there for four days. It would have been fine for just one night, but spending several days with such a tiny shower space and bedding that wasn’t very clean wasn’t very pleasant. The soundproofing was not very good as well.

Would 100% recommend and go again!

The owners of the guesthouse were incredibly friendly and well versed in the town they live in. Giving us recommendations on places to visit or different routes to other locations for a better scenic ride. They room was clean, tidy, and extremely comfortable.

The parking was slightly awkward, but that won't be classed as any marks down.

5.0 / 10.0

Great location

The sink was very slow to empty. Tea bags not always refilled. Cleaning could be better, wash basin not clean, nether were the cups or glasses. Didn't see any staff.
