    “The house was lovely except that the leaking boiler, reported by the previous guests, hadn't been repaired and left us with no hot water or heating on the first morning.”

    This wouldn't have been a problem except for the impossibility of contacting Sykes to report the issue. Your customer service is a joke! Your out of hours numbers are a sham and it took over half an hour on hold to contact you in office hours. It is unlikely that we will ever use Sykes again or recommend anyone else to do do. A lovely property let down by a very poor agent.

About the location

ALNWICK

Alnmouth 4 miles; Bamburgh 15 miles; Rothbury 10 miles.

The attractive and historic market town of Alnwick is dominated by Alnwick Castle, home to the Duke of Northumberland. The Castle Gardens, opened in 2002, are home to Europe's largest cascading water feature, the Lilidorei attraction for children (billed as the worlds largest play structure), a delightful rose garden and a beautiful, walled ornamental garden, which will delight novice and experienced gardeners alike. The castle is also famous as the setting for Hogwarts School featured in the Harry Potter films! The town's narrow streets have seen little change since the days when the London to Edinburgh stage coach passed through and the Market Place, with its stone cross, is still the central feature and the ideal venue for the weekly Saturday market. Alnwick offers a good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat and there is plenty to see and do, with miles of golden sandy beaches, numerous castles and boat trips to the famous Farne Islands all available nearby. Altogether a superb location for exploring Northumberland and its stunning Heritage Coastline.
