Very pleased with our stay. Martin the manager was very helpful, nice guy. Great beer garden. Beds clean and comfortable. Bedroom carpets however were well passed their best and could do with being replaced.

We first visited the Red Lion Inn for a drink when we visited Alnmouth in 2023, and immediately knew we wanted to stay at the inn! We were attending a wedding nearby and it was the perfect chance to stay here. Check-in was easy and fast, our room was clean and comforting, we were able to book to have dinner in the pub, and we had a delicious breakfast the next morning.

great location, a fabulous B&B that was very clean and luxurious, and Harvey couldn’t have been more attentive.

The plough does not provide breakfast. The room didn't seem to have been cleaned for some time and was dirty with a cracked sink and mould in the shower. No one came to the room to make the beds etc and we had to ask a gentleman from the kitchen staff for milk and sugar to enable us to have a drink.
A 15-minute walk from Alnwick Castle, The Oaks Hotel provides bed and breakfast accommodation and a full food menu. This dog-friendly Northumberland hotel provides free parking and Wi-Fi.

It was perfect for what we wanted. Lovely family room, very nicely appointed. We had dinner in the restaurant and the service was great. Breakfast the next day was generous and delicious. We had a nice walk to town (10 mins) in the evening and it was a short walk (but we drove) to Alnwick Castle.

Beautiful decor and furnishings, with everything well thought out. Our room was luxurious and the bed so comfortable.
We loved the jar of homemade cookies!
Staff could not have been more helpful and the breakfast was wonderfully tasty.
The location is right in the heart of the town, close to the castle. Ideal for exploring on foot.
Really couldn’t fault anything.
The beach is beautiful.
Parking near the beach is available but be there earlier rather than later, it fills up quickly and parking in Alnmouth centre is more difficult.
Plenty of amenities in the town for eating, shopping etc

Great part of the UK to visit.
Great part of the UK to visit. First time holidaying in Northumberland (have walked through it before) and it totally bowled me over. So much to see and do, so beautiful.
We had an amazing week here and will definitely come again. Walking, food, history it has it all.

Alnmouth is a small coastal resort with a lovely atmosphere. Everyone is so friendly and there are lots of amenities. The 9 hole golf course is excellent and quite a challenge. The walks along the coastal path are lovely. The meals at the Whittling House were amazing

For all it only has a small high Street, the pubs/restaurants were plenty and the surrounding buildings/area charming! Lovely gift shop and good delicatessen (though not terribly engaging staff 🤔) Ate at Red Lion and the Italian restaurant, part of Hope and Anchor. Great staff here too.
A pleasant walk around main part of Alnmouth and easy access to Craster and Alnwick (by car.)

Pretty village, some nice pubs and hotels. 9 hole golf course although I didn't get a chance to play it.
Avoid at all costs the Schooner Inn. Look up and believe the bad reviews and disbelieve anything over two stars.

Alnmouth is a charming little town right on the coast, in a picturesque location. There are many friendly local inns and a few local independent shops. Within easy cycling or driving distance are attractions such as Alnwick, Dunstanburgh Castle and the Northumberland coastline with a variety of birds to spot too. The beach is fantastic. Easily accessible by train as well as by car.
Exactly as described _ situated right on the estuary looking towards Alnmouth. A short drive through fields, so very peaceful apart from birdsong, and the odd vocal cow. The north/south coastal path was right on my doorstep and took advantage of this with a walk along the beach to Warkworth (beach 10 mins away through a track through the fields) and back. Rain was forecast so did not linger in Warkworth Village, where there are plenty eateries, or visit the castle. Maybe next time
Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Stayed for night after cycling from Berwick very happy with choice of accommodation. We bought takeaway fish and chips from 'the hope and anchor' just around the corner which would highly recommend. Although full English breakfast etc. was on offer, we had fruit, yogurt and porridge which was a perfect start to cycling onto Newcastle.
Lovely cottage with everything you could need and more and spotlessly clean.
A quiet location, even though right in the centre of Alnmouth.
Very conveniently close to various pubs/restaurants.
Private parking a big bonus especially when seeing the lack of empty parking spaces around Alnmouth.
Breakfast was delicious with good choices on the menu. The staff were all friendly and happy to share their knowledge about things to see and do locally.
Our room was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The bathroom seemed to have been recently refurbished and the shower was lovely.
Beautiful luxurious room in an elegant small hotel. Fantastic restaurant. We had a walk on one of the best beaches in the UK when we arrived and just after breakfast. The staff were lovely. Breakfast was stunningly good. Just excellent and we will return.
Th local was exactly what we were looking for. The floor space was massive and more than comfortable for 6 people and two dogs. Alnmouth itself was perfect - restaurants (good quality) and other high end food shops.
Would we use again? Yes :-)
Really enjoyed my stay, friendly bar and lovely clean rooms. The pub is in a great location for other pubs, restaurants and beach in Alnmouth, fantastic staff that make you feel very welcome,
The owner was really helpful and provided extra things for the kitchen that we needed. The apartment very comfortable and is right in the centre of Alnmouth and close to lovely beach walks.
Great location right on the sea front. The on sight parking was a bonus as it is difficult to park in Alnmouth. Accommodation was a good size, comfortable with all the facilities required.
Beautiful location, super friendly staff, great room for a very reasonable price. The breakfast was brilliant as well. Would happily go back and I recommend it to anyone visiting Alnmouth.
What a wonderful stay at the Red Lion in Alnmouth. The breakfast was amazing with top quality food on offer. The room was beautiful with everything you would need for a short break.
superb location Alnmouth is the jewel in the crown of Northumbria, the room was spacious & nicely furnished, bathroom chic and colossal, the bar cosy and well stocked
Good location and views. Spacious bathroom which includes a bath. Good to have parking as this is a problem in Alnmouth. Tasty breakfast served up to 9.30.
Lovely hotel excellent restaurant lovely staff location was great so near to lovely alnmouth beach Prices in restaurant comparable with other restaurants
