Parking very convenient on the opposite side of the property. Fabulous location a few minutes,walk past the rear of the castle then you reach the town. Upstairs a spacious layout we definitely had plenty of space for 6 of us. The kitchen a little squeeze but absolutely everything you need.1 minor we didn't find the beds too comfortable . A fabulous well equipped cottage oozing character and a definite place to consider if we return to Alnwick and a big thankyou Yvonne for having us. The Hamlet's.

Family holiday

We have stayed in many holiday homes as a family and this house was hands down the best one. Immaculate and airy with a very generous welcome gift on arrival. We would certainly choose to stay here again in the future.

Great accommodation in a great location

This was an amazing property right in the heart of Alnwick. Everything 5 mins walk - good pubs, cafes, shops, castle, gardens, bookshops all a short stroll. Accommodation was a great standard and great space and layout with 2 big reception rooms and one with a log burner……great for a cold March evening. We will be back.

Superb

Really enjoyed our stay here- really nice touches such as then welcome pack which included fresh milk, wine tea cakes so we could have a cuppa before going to the supermarket (which was v close, but just wanted a moment to relax!), and fresh bars of soap. Really convenient for all the restaurants and sights. Couldn’t fault it.

Brillliant house in perfect location

We have loved staying in this property. The house is clean and well cared for, and has everything you could possibly need for an excellent holiday. The location is very central to the pubs and attractions in Alnwick, with very easy access to the coastal route and to Cragside and the National park. The accommodation was spacious enough for our family of five to be able to properly relax and enjoy time both together and separately. Yvonne is a lovely host, and very helpful. We cannot recommend the property highly enough.

Brilliant property, excellent location!

We were so lucky to get away on holiday over October half term this year, after all the restrictions and difficulties of 2020. We really landed on our feet with this property! Situated literally around the corner from Alnwick Castle’s “back door”, it was central for everything we needed. The house itself was a home from home; beautifully clean, well stocked with all the essentials, loads of plug sockets (which were so useful for all the chargers!) and consequently somewhere we could really relax. The two reception rooms were a real bonus, and the recommendations for local eateries were spot on. Yvonne was a lovely host, and we were so happy with our stay. Thank you!

Amazing accommodation in Alnwick

Our first trip to Northumberland, Percy Cottage made it perfect. The cottage was conveniently located and fully equipped with everything we needed - catering for a mix of generations ...and a hound. In 4 days we managed to explore Alnwick, visit Holy Island and Bamburgh, walk from Craster to Embleton and back via Dunstanburgh Castle (buying kippers at Craster) whilst Storm Dennis battered the rest of the country we had clear blue skies! Plus, we enjoyed the riverside walk to the weir opposite Alnwick Castle and had time for the odd beer in the Dirty Bottle. A wonderful trip, thanks Yvonne for making it a home from home. We'll be back!
