The Granary, Alnwick

The Granary in Longframlington is an idyllic holiday home. Fixtures and fittings are extremely tasteful and of the highest quality throughout. Our hosts were charming, very welcoming and provided the most delicious home made cakes!

A perfect location, really good bistro pubs locally, and restaurants within easy driving distance. Alnwick and The Gardens and Castle are within a 15 minute drive, the town also has a nice little theatre. The countryside, coast, castles and walks are breathtaking - what more can I say.

I will definitely stay at The Granary again but for longer!

Delightful hosts, cream scones, wine and flowers on arrival. Everything was perfect. Nothing was forgotten and high standard in everything in the cottage. A must for anyone. Will definitely recommend to all and visit again.

Great accommodation, very well kitted out, with excellent facilities. Very warm and comfortable and CLEAN!

We have stayed in some exceptional properties over the years but this one was outstanding. The quality of the towelling/bedding etc. exceptional and all the little extras such as good quality toiletries, lovely cakes on arrival, tea/coffe etc. and also the lovely welcome from the owner all made this lovely autumn break.

The Granary is a cottage to fall in love with. From the moment you drive through the gates, to discovering and falling for this sumptuously appointed and spacious holiday home, to waving goodbye and wishing you didn't have to, I cannot rate it highly enough. For a couple or small family it is just superb and my fiance and I only wish we could have stayed there during the summer months to enjoy the patio etc fully. The bedrooms, kitchen and bathrooms particularly are as if brand new, simply stunning and near faultless, the 2 power showers excellent, although the shower cubicle base did fill up to the limit within about ten minutes for those who like me enjoy a longer shower! But the over bath shower next door was of the same type and did not suffer this minor problem. Great tiles, mirrors, lighting, heated towel rails, etc etc. Kitchen utility area and downstairs toilet beyond it are a real bonus and all so well presented you felt pampered. Fully equipped kitchen, only gripes were tin opener wasn't working and no egg cups, I defy you to find any others! The sunsets from the large kitchen cartwheel window were beautiful and provided some lovely snaps of my car. The plentiful books/crosswords/Dvds/CDs/games were a nice touch and added to our holiday, as did Hamish, the friendly doorstop dog! Comfy beds, although we found the 2 seater sofa of only average comfort, a bit slidey and needed a throw. Enjoyed the candles and woodburner and melting pleasantly even during the cold spell, plenty of wood and coal supplied for a week. Central heating superb although smoke alarm annoyingly activated whenever grilled anything. Lots of places to visit in all directions, Alnwick, Berwick, Morpeth, Rothbury, Coast, what more do you want? The owners were very cheerful and helpful although they were in process of moving out. We were greeted by the new owners who we also found friendly. Ah, the memories. Best holiday in years!!!

Superb cottage - well equipped, very clean & comfortable.
Added touches of wine, cake & chocs got us off to a good start.
('Free range chickens' were delicious!!).
Ideally situated for castles,beaches & the Northumberland countryside.
Would definitely recommend to family & friends.

Set in a secluded rural position with extensive views over the Northumbrian countryside, extremely well equipped, tastefully and comfortably furnished it was a pleasure to return to after a hard day sightseeing. The wine and cake on arrival and the toiletries in the bathrooms were an unexpected but very much appreciated gesture; as was the welcome and information from the owner on our arrival. This cottage is within an hours drive of the main tourist attractions. We felt really at home here and none of us wanted to come home at the end of our stay. The friendly service in the village shops is worth a mention too along with the morning visit of the cockerel and his harem of hens!

We stayed for a week using it as the base for a circular walk the Inns Way. This was an impeccable place to stay. The standard is 5 star. The touches we greatly appreciated. A lovely bottle of wine with delicious carrot cake, along with some sweets.
Every appliance and contents of the kitchen were high class. The furniture including the beds very comfortable.
the location is perfect for all the area has to offer.
this is one of the best place I have stayed at.

Everything was excellent - from booking the break (with only a day's notice) to the cottage itself. I couldn't fault anything; the owner was exceptionally hospitable and welcoming, and the cottage was superb - like staying in a 5* hotel with self catering facilities! A truly wonderful place.

The Granary owners were most welcoming, kind and thoughtful. The village shop won a national award for village shop of the year. Well deserved.

The Granary was lovely. Stylish, comfy and they'd thought of absolutely everything. Couldn't wish for a nicer cottage/place to stay. It was a home from home. We'll be a little afraid to book anything else with you (or anyone else) as I can't see how any other cottage will be as good - and we'll be disappointed!

Amazing property, spotless throughout. Everything you could possibly need was there. Best we have ever stayed in. Beautiful inside and very thoughtful touches from owner. Should be 5*. Wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

In renting some 20+ cottages over the past 10 years or so this was the very best we have stayed in, from all aspects. The owner should be nominated for your top award!

We were made extremely welcome on arrival: Cream scones, bottle of wine, flowers. The Granary was absolutely marvellous, it should have the maximum number of stars. Very convenient for driving to all the local attractions. We will definitely go again and recommend it to everyone. There was nothing at all lacking, everything had been thought out.

Cannot fault this property. Ideal for couples and families. The hosts have thought of everything and are most helpful with local information.

This is peaceful location with excellent links to the local attractions. We wish to return and continue exploring Northumbria from this cottage.

First class accommodation, our second visit. Ideal base for visiting Seahouses, Bamburgh, Alnwick and Berwick Upon Tweed.

We always choose to spend our holidays in the UK and always stay in luxury cottages. This was the nicest cottage we have ever stayed in, the owners had thought of every last detail.

The cottage was lovely, ideal for a family of 4. It is in a lovely setting close to a village with easy access to the A1 for sight seeing. The owners keep some animals which is always popular with the kids. Northumberland itself is well worth a visit with plenty to see and do, numerous castles and beautiful beaches.

An immaculate, very well equipped house in a beautiful location. It is in a good location for exploring the area.

All aspects of the property were to a very high standard - not 5 star but 10 star! It just had absolutely everything that we like, nothing was missed, and the attention to every detail was very impressive. We plan to return to such a perfect holiday venue.

We love the area as there is so much to do and to see. What really made our holiday so special was staying at The Granary. We have stayed in many self catering cottages over the years, I am so pleased to say that The Granary was just perfect. A lovely setting indeed and the accommodation was definitely 5 star. It was very tastefully furnished and lacked nothing. We will be back, hopefully with family.

The amazing surroundings and the friendliness of the people. We all hope to return someday in the future.

The cottage was superb in every way. It was beautifully furnished and was a pleasure to stay in, it was a home from home, with the added bonus of stunning countryside views and the morning visit from the chickens.

The village has everything you need, an excellent grocers, butchers and newsagents. The local pubs are welcoming and it is close to all the tourist attractions. Alnwick is only 10 minutes away for the major supermarkets, petrol etc. Couldn't fault it in any way, cant wait to go back! Thank you.

Granary cottage was very well equipped with high quality furniture and fittings. It was lovely having two bathrooms and we were delighted with the dressing gowns especially as the children had one too . The owner's touches were lovely. A short walk takes you to the village and the cottage is well placed for local attractions and the coast.

The property was perfect in every way, I would liked to have been able to stay longer that a week. The owners provided everything for a perfect holiday and The Granary at Longframlington was ideally situated for all the major visitor attractions. A quiet country location, a perfect retreat.

Quality Accommodation, situated near to all the areas we wanted to explore. Lots of thought and originality has gone into the design making, the accommodation altogether user friendly. Comfortable and finished to a high standard.

Lovely clean property and a very warm welcome from the owners down to a bottle of wine, cake and a carton of milk for a cup of tea.

A lovely cottage in a great location.

Without doubt the best appointed and furnished holiday rental we have stayed in over the years. It is in a quiet location with attractive surrounding gardens and lawns; the owners are to be congratulated on the high standards of this property.

The Granary provided excellent accommodation. Everything was spotlessly clean and just as one would wish to find it. Despite being in the country TV reception and Internet were very good. The location of the cottage was excellent for reaching the main tourist areas of Northumbria. We would highly recommended.

The Granary is a characterful and beautiful property. It is excellently equipped and presented. The cottage was comfortable and has open views. This is one of the nicest places we have stayed.
