Needs some attention
Could be a great property if some money was spent on maintenance. It’s in a central location right next to the castle and shops. However, the carpets are stained and need replacing or cleaning. The curtains are falling off the rails. The sofa cushions smell like a dog slept on them. There is also a really noisy outdoor bar next door which plays loud music all day and evening at the weekends. I think the bar has opened since we made the booking in March so we weren’t aware how loud it would be. The front door needs to be made more secure too - the lock is not very sturdy.

Great property in super location
Smart, loft-style property set on 3 floors. Comfortable, clean and cosy. Little bit of noise from next door but not much. Located right in the centre of the town next to Alnwick Castle. Highly recommended.
