  • "An excellent flat, well equipped in a good location."

    Reviewed by Justin5.0Apr 2024

  • "Very clean and light and fitted out to a high standard."

    Shame about the building site opposite.

    Thank you for your positive comments about Schooner Court. We have kept upcoming guests informed about the work being carried out opposite (and it is on the property description), and have given a discount, so we hope that goes some way to offset any issues (the work is unsightly rather than disruptive). We hope it will be finished soon! Property Owner

  • "Good modern property."

    Well equipped and located. Parking space a plus. We’ve stayed here a couple of times and would look to again but concerns over the hosting company increased booking fees.

    Thank you for your feedback - we are glad the apartment met your requirements. Regarding the charges, these are set by NCCC/Sykes are are not within the control of the owners. Property Owner

  • "Cleanliness could be improved, blinds, sofas and mats need cleaning as well as behind bedside cabinets/ beds full of dust."

    Noise from builders was far more than we had been advised, with it staring every day at 8am and even 7am on the Saturday, no chance of a lie in. Marketed as sea views which isn’t technically correct as it’s estuary views which are obscured by the building work/ other properties.

    Thank you for your feedback. We will look into the issue you raise about the cleaning - we rarely get comments about this so we will check with our cleaner. We did contact every guest to inform them of the building work and gave a substantial discount, however, work should not have taken place on the Saturday - we have contacted the builders about this. We have just checked the property description and sea views are not mentioned: it says '....a balcony where you can enjoy the view of the estuary', and this is shown in the accompanying pictures.

  • "We have visited Alnmouth for over 30 years."

    It is an ideal place from which to explore the many delights of Northumberland with its spectacular countryside, beautiful beaches and historical sites. There are good places to eat nearby, some good pubs and all are dog friendly. During our visits, we have stayed at a wide variety of properties in Alnmouth, but none have been better than Schooner Court. We had the the upstairs accommodation, which lived up to its online description and photos. We can highly recommend Schooner Court and intend to book a return there in 2024. At the moment there is some building work taking place opposite the property, but we had notification of this beforehand and we found it did not detract from our time there. This work we are told, will be fully completed in October and should if anything, make it more appealing to visitors in future.

    Thank you for the lovely feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the apartment (and have booked again!). We are also pleased that we were able to keep you informed about the building work opposite and that it didn't cause undue problems. Property Owner

About the location

ALNMOUTH

Alnwick 4 miles.

Situated just 4 miles east of Alnwick, Alnmouth is a charming resort popular with golfers and those seeking a peaceful holiday. The village lies on a narrow spit of land between the River Aln and the North Sea and was originally the port for Alnwick. Nowadays the area has returned to its unspoilt origins and offers a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as an excellent “links” golf course and some great rivers for fishing, as well as boasting miles and miles of splendid beaches and sand dunes to explore which afford stunning views of the North Sea. A short drive will bring you to Alnwick with its famous historic castle, The Alnwick Garden housing the Poison Garden which runs guided tours through dangerous botanicals and a variety of pubs and restaurants. Alnmouth is well situated for exploring Northumberland.

Note: There are building works taking place opposite Schooner Court 1 and 2. The work is nearing completion, but it is anticipated that there will be some activity on the site through April and May, possibly with some final internal work in the summer. Neither the owners of Schooner Court 1 and 2 or Northumbria Coast & Country Cottages have any control over the neighbouring works and it may be that no disturbance at all is caused throughout your holiday but at some time during the midweek (work is not permitted at the weekend) there may be some activity.
