  • "We had a wonderful stay the views from the flat are stunning and definitely enhanced our stay."

  • "Second time we’ve stayed at the property - and really enjoyed ourselves again."

    We plan to book for next Easter due to the fair price for the fantastic location, and the flat has everything we need. We did feel that compared to last year that the standard of the clean was not as good, with large cobwebs throughout the flat. It would also benefit from a new mattress / mattress topper in the main bedroom (looking toward the sea) as both of us felt it was uncomfortable this time, and there were clear dips in places where people usually sleep. We turned the mattress around to try and find some area where it was more comfortable and less dented. But like I said - very happy with the accommodation again, just a couple of things to improve that would have led to full marks.

  • "This is our second stay at Friars Court and once again it was a great property in a fantastic location, allowing us to enjoy the wonderful Alnmouth."

    Just a couple of points for the owner (sure they’re already aware?) The keysafe box doesn’t reset / lock and the lounge window is letting in some water…quite a bit of splashing off the edge whilst we were there (there were towels in the window when we arrived and someone did come to take a look at the outside)

  • "Super location in heart of Alnmouth with views over the golf course to the beautiful Alnmouth beach - a view you can never tire of."

    Comfortable, spacious accommodation with plenty of storage & very clean. On-site parking was a bonus rather than have to park in the village. Would happily book this place again.
