We had a lovely stay at Tom's Cottage, it had everything we needed for a week away from home with the kids and Grandpa. Great location for exploring Alnwick without the car, with loads to do within a 30 minutes drive. Parking was never an issue for us and the street is lovely and quiet. Highly recommend.

Toms Cottage was cosy, comfortable and well-equipped. You can easily walk to Barter Books, Alnwick Gardens or the town centre and theres a very handy Co-op just around the corner. We had a lovely stay and would recommend it!

Cleanliness has room for improvement, ie. cleaning all the cobwebs in the bedrooms and kitchen. Outside area needs a total refurbishment. Tablecloths for outside should be provided.

This is an excellent base for any kind of stay in Northumberland. Its well equipped, clean and comfortable.

The cottage is in a quiet spot but very close to the centre of the town, thus making it easy to walk there and back rather than having to take the car out. It is a good place to stay if people want to visit both the coast and countryside. Alnwick has a number of attractions of its own to visit and the eating places are pretty good.

Toms cottage is in a very central area. The bedroom with 2 single beds is more suitable for children than 2 adults space is very limited. The house was clean and had all the facilities we required for our stay. We had a very enjoyable stay at the house and visiting all the historic sites and surrounding area.
