ذا شيباردز ريست

Absolutely amazing pub, so warm and welcoming maz and Claire made sure that everyone was comfortable, quick speeds with pints, the pub feels warm with customers. Will definitely be back !

Reception was fine, staff friendly and polite but this property is not good value for money. While clean enough the accommodation is very tired and is right alongside a busy road and the window wouldn't close. The bathroom is very cramped and would not suit the larger person. At the price breakfast really should be included. We've stayed at far nicer accommodation for nearly half the price and with breakfast included. Previous occupants of our room had used the kettle as a teapot and, while not the act itself is not hosts fault, we found stale tea and teabags in the kettle when we came to use it. Also, be aware that if you would like to walk into the town centre or the castle, it's a long uphill climb back to the property. This didn't worry us but wouldn't suit others. The property was a poor choice on my behalf.

Ideal stopover within walking distance of Alnwick. Exactly suited our purpose
