We enjoyed this modern, well equipped, comfortable apartment ideally located for Alnwick centre, the A1, and access to the stunning coast. Our main concern was the exit from the car park onto the adjacent busy road which, due to 2 large brick pillars is blind in both directions. A mirror opposite would greatly improve the safe access to the road.
