The room was quite clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay together with my wife. The hotel was very close to town center and Alnwick Castle. All the things surrounding have great atmosphere like old and well preserved buildings, cosy bars and green lands. In the morning we drank our coffees at the space with tables and chairs just in front of the hotel. The hotel manager was also so kind and hospitable.
Featuring free WiFi and a terrace, The Cookie Jar (Alnwick) was formerly the Convent of Mercy, and is just 0.2 miles from the center of Alnwick.

Words really fail me to explain how special this property was. The attention to every single detail was exquisite. I’m a professional organizer. My business is details. I’ve never seen anything like this. Everything - even the lights on the floor that automatically come on when you walk into the bathroom - was planned perfectly when this former convent was remodeled to make a sacred space for all its guests. There was even framed sheet music in the halls to, I assume, pay homage to the beautiful music that must’ve once graced the hallways.
The staff was so warm and welcoming. The breakfast buffet was like something out of a Veranda magazine spread. The breakfast was delicious.
At every turn in the hotel and the room itself, we were met with a delightful and unexpected experience.
Who puts this much thought into a public space? The Cookie Jar does. You made our once-in-a-lifetime trip unforgettable.
We would like to introduce you to The Tempus at Charlton Hall Estate, a decadent place where colors collide, and imaginations are captured.

Fab stay only negative was that I booked this as a surprise and on arrival told if we had not booked a table we could not get food as fully booked which I understand but could have offered to order food still and take to room if needed

Alnwick is a good place to visit and is an ideal base for exploring the area.
There are a number of good restaurants and cafes.
Alnwick Castle is worth a visit, but don’t bother with Alnwick Gardens as they are small and over priced.

This was our first visit to Alnwick and we've fallen in love! There were so many intriguing and characterful shops to explore and we were spoilt for choice for lovely places to eat. We would whole heartedly recommend eating a SherKhan - some of the best curry we've ever had - and also The Adam and Eve.
Dirty Bottles is a fab venue, great for a drink but would skip the very averge food next time.

The castle and gardens were closed but we have been in them before and so we were not disappointed. A walk along the river at the back of the castle is very nice and a good test of your waterproofs and footwear. Hulne park has good walks. Alnwick is a beautiful town. Berwick and Morpeth nearby, complement the area.

Alnwick is an excellent centre for visiting many locations in Northumberland, with lots of scenic coastline and castles on your doorstep. There are plenty of excellent places to eat however if you are going to stay over a weekend I would recommend booking a table in advance as they all get very busy. If you want to book the treetop restaurant book months on advance to avoid disappointment. Alnwick castle and gardens are a must if you have never visited before.

Both The Garden and Castle were well worth the ticket price.
Both The Garden and Castle were well worth the ticket price.
Informative tours are available with very knowledgeable staff. Even if you don't take a tour of the castle and wander around yourself, staff are on hand to answer any questions you may have about the history of the castle and gardens . A fantastic place to visit.
We popped out for a walk around the town mid visit and had no issue getting back in to the castle afterwards.
We stayed at a brand new hotel called The Tempus on the Charlton Hall Estate. Charlton Hall is now only run as a wedding venue. The Tempus is a beautiful hotel with state of the art technology for controlling room lights, temperature in the room, etc. The decor is colourful and flamboyant with a fun vibe and tastefully done. The dining room is cheerful and the bar cozy. The food was excellent. There was also plenty of parking, a necessity as it is out in the country. I would highly recommend a stay at The Tempus.
the location is great , nice and peaceful and safe knowing you have Jen and Shaun on site if needed without the noise of a camp site , your own shower ,toilet , tv , internet , a outdoor place to chill and a fire pit
the pod is brand new and clean with a comfy bed and microwave and kettle to make snacks , the pod is in the grounds of a private estate with another lodge nearby but it is very private
It was lovely having the chickens and the dogs around
Jen and Shaun are lovely hosts
The cottage was very central to the castle and local shops in the high street. It was near the Playhouse which had films and plays running. There were some food supplies in the cottage which was great as we arrived later in the day. The hot tub was lovely after a days walking. There were pubs and restaurants which some of them were not open all week. Parking was behind the hotel or in the 24 hour free parking across the road from the back the hotel.
Location was great, right in the centre of Alnwick, the castle and grounds were little more than 10 minutes walk away.
Parking arrangements were superb with free parking in the car park of a nearby hotel literally 100 metres away.
The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need.
Everything was very clean
That is the right place if you want to stay in a 'real' english house. It is so charming and original and the hosts are very very polite. Don't miss the superb breakfast!
And the sights are all very close: the 'Northumberland National Park', or nice towns like Alnwick etc., and also the coast is not too far away.
The room was clean and had everything we needed for a couple of nights stay, including free parking. The location of the hotel is really good, Alnwick is a great town, Alnwick Castle & gardens are a 5 min walk away from Tate House and the beautiful beaches are only a short drive away.
LOVELY PLACE TO STAY! Wonderful friendly staff, great breakfast, lovely room, close to amenities - could not ask for more! We were attending for a weddign and staff very accomodating to add an extra night. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would VERY MUCH recommend.
The property is centrally located in Alnwick close to restaurants, cafes ,shops and the castle. Free parking is available nearby. This was our second visit to the Bondgate and is our preferred choice for accommodation in the town.
Superb location for visiting Alnwick Castle and Lilidorei. Five mins ish walk to the town centre and a handy corner shop very nearby. There was a very generous welcome box of food and drink too. Lots of lovely little touches.
Proximity to Alnwick castle and gardens.
Not having to use the car once parked at the hotel.
Historical links with the ship “Olympic” and the beautiful dining room which came from that vessel.
Good breakfast
Nice room in a pub, very spacious and clean.
The accommodation is in a great location near to the centre and walking distance to the amazing Alnwick Castle and gardens (which are well worth a visit).
I can not say enough about this property! Everything was amazing! If you are looking for a place to stay, this is it. James was amazing from the time I booked to the time I checked out.
Beautiful apartment with lots of little extras like dvds, books and board games if you needed them. Very clean and modern. Great location right near Alnwick Castle and very quiet
Wonderful breakfast, excellent hosts, walking distance to dining and Alnwick Castle, close to all Northumberland attractions. Host communication and check-in was very easy.
An absolutely beautiful boutique hotel in a great position in Alnwick, right by the castle and within easy walking distance to all the restaurants, cafes and bars.
