Patricia
Nothing like the photos on website bathroom a disgrace and bedroom much the same dust in every room and not just a little bit been there for a good while . the owner says he checks it once a month but does not look like it only good thing was near town centre
Maurice
A great location in a quiet area close to the town centre. The house was practical and the kitchen quite well equipped. A buddleia overhangs the parking space and our car was covered with pigeon mess.We learned to park further back! Also the buddleia at the back makes it difficult to use the patio at the rear.
Christine
Alnwick is a perfect location for visiting the castles and coast of beautiful Northumberland. The property is ideally situated in a quiet spot in the centre of town. The house is very comfortable, extremely well equipped and well maintained. Alnwick has a wide variety of restaurants Leos, a superb Thai restaurant, is almost on the doorstep and Morrisons supermarket is close by. The only negative is vehicle access to the property that requires maneuvering past parked cars in Chapel Lane that is very narrow.
The accommodation had everything we needed as a family of 4 with two young children. Its so close to all the amenities and tourist attractions in Alnwick while being tucked away so that little bit quieter. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and crockery and the wine and biscuits were a really nice touch. Comfy beds and everything was really clean.
Beautiful, well equipped, clean, comfortable house in a perfect location. Literally in the town centre and across the road from Morrisons but you'd never know as it is tucked just behind an archway in a quite street. Will definitely be back
This accommodation was really ideal for our purpose exploring Northumberland. It is located in a quiet street right in the centre of Alnwick. It can be a bit narrow if there are other cars parked along the street, but this was not really a problem. A supermarket is within a few minutes walking distance. The accommodation itself was both cosy and practical, the kitchen well equipped, the bed comfortable. We wont hesitate to book it again.
Stephen
Clean, comfortable and well appointed. We found something belonging to another guest at the property that had fallen into the sofa and the owner was easy to get hold of to report it. Parking a little tight but very pleased to have it and was a main reason to book our stay. Very handy for all the amenities Alnwick has to offer.
Barbara
Really home from home. Comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. Had everything we wanted and more particulary the setting and private parking directly outside. Perfect for exploring Alnwick and close to numerous shops, pubs and restaurants.
We have just had a lovely stay at Wesley Mews, the location was perfect for having Alnwick town and walks down by the river and Castle literally on your doorstep. Easy to drive to beaches and other attractions and to get to other towns. Nice clean, modern house with all the facilities you need if you want to cook , loads of restaurants and cafe's near by, if you don't. Morrisons across the road but you can't see any of that as the house is tucked away behind an arch so it feels secluded. Lots of leaflets for attractions at the house for ideas too. The bus stop is across the road if you want public transport. We took our son's who are 12 and 15 and it was nice for them to be able to wander easily from the house and go to the shops etc. We had a brilliant time in Northumberland, such a beautiful county we live on the South East Coast so a long way to drive but I would do it again as still so much more to see and Alnwick was a great base. We enjoyed the food and atmosphere at The Dirty Bottles bar restaurant, watched a good B Bop band at The Birdcage both in Alnwick and our highlights for days out were Holy Island of Lindisfarne, walk up Yeavering Bell on edge of Northumberland National Park walk from Craster to Dunstanburgh Castle, Newcastle, Cragside National Trust about 11 miles from Alnwick which is one of the best ones I've ever been to. My favourite evening though was watching the sunset by the river behind Alnwick Castle was magical and then being able to wander back up to Wesley Mews.
Weve just had a wonderful stay in Alnwick and at 1 Wesley Mews. We found the home to be cosy and welcoming. We appreciated the welcome pack and that they had a dish washer, washing machine and a large tv! If we could make a few small suggestions, there wasnt enough coat hangers for our clothes and no draws really to put any of our clothes in so we all had to live out of bags for the week. Theres a big cupboard in one of the bedrooms which we feel could be converted to have valuable storage shelfs as well as a rail etc. We feel that hooks on the back of the bedroom doors to hang wet towels on etc would have been helpfulAnd larger bath towels would be appreciated. That said, we did have a lovely time in Alnwick and this is a great base for exploring but the points above would make it 5 stars
Our home from home for two wonderful weeks. The house has absolutely everything you need for a perfect stay, cosy, comfortable and very practical. The location is ideal, a short stroll to all the facilities Alnwick has to offer. To have free parking is a great bonus. Plenty of information and leaflets on things to do and places to visit, which was very helpful. Thoroughly recommend the Dirty Bottles.

Ideal Part to stay for a break in Northumberland

We loved the stay in Wesley Mews. Added touches of Xmas tree, and welcoming gift of wine and biscuits. All the homely comforts made it a perfect place to stay and catch up with our family and friends. Thanks.
We had a wonderful stay as a family of four 2 adults and 2 children at 1 Wesley mews! Beautiful end terrace property, wonderfully maintained. We stayed for 4 nights and wouldnt hesitate to return. Our 8year old daughter loved it so much we had tears on our final night as she wanted to stay longer! There was a bottle of wine and a pack of biscuits waiting in the kitchen for us on arrival which was such a lovely touch and much appreciated. Fantastic location in the Center of Alnwick and walking distance to the castle, gardens, Barter books and other shops. Morrisons was just across the road which made food shopping easy and we found the kitchen facilities to be brilliant with all appliances working. It was a 15 minute drive to the coast for a lovely beach stroll but we mostly loved being able to wander around Alnwick so easily. All the beds were super comfy and there was ample space for four of us to unpack our clothes. Thank you for a wonderful break in Alnwick, we hope to return soon!
Pauline
Fantastic end of terrace house in a great location, right in the centre of Alnwick. House is in a very quiet location with no passing traffic and parking outside the front door. The house is comfortable with good quality furnishings. Close to Morrisons and many shops and restaurants Alnwick has to offer. Great location for visiting the many beautiful villages, castles and beaches along the coast. Short walk to the stunning Alnwick Gardens and Castle. Cragside National Trust well worth a visit. Bamburgh Castle and beach amazing. Good communication with the owners.
Could have done with a set of drawers in the twin bedroom so we could unpack as small wardrobe had no shelves.
Until the owner replaces the sagging double bed mattress suggest two single beds are used. The property otherwise is an excellent base for Alnwick and surrounding areas
We booked 1 Wesley Mews to celebrate our Ruby Wedding anniversary, and reading the cottage reviews and seeing the pictures thought this would be ideal and, although a little more than we would normally pay, we decided to book it. First impressions on arrival were good, roomier than we first thought, nice furnishings and warm and cosy. Very well situated for getting around and visiting the sites, and also handy for the bus station and local supermarket. However, during the course of our stay we discovered a few negative points, and to us it did not live up to the praise on the previous reviews, and would not call it outstanding as was stated on the website. There were several issues whilst there that needed to be looked at, and we contacted Glen, one of the owners, the day before we left. We had a problem with the mixer tap in the kitchen but managed to repair it, but notified Glen in case in needed further attention. We were asked if there was any damage and we confirmed that there was not. Whilst on the phone we also mention a few other things that needed attention. These were a toilet roll holder in the downstairs loo that was hanging off the wall, there were two chipped mugs in the cupboard, the ceiling light in the lounge had one lightbulb which never worked, and although two tea towels and one pan shiner were listed in the itinerary, we had no pan shiner and only one tea towel. The plinth under the boiler in the kitchen, which was resting on the fridge freezer, fell down every time the fridge door was opened. The grill pan wasn't the cleanest, whoever used it before us did not clean it properly, but it should have been checked anyway. Perhaps a roll of kitchen foil might be an idea. Finally, we had no change of bed linen, towels or tea towels for our second week at the property. So, after all that we have said, they are probably only small things, but it would have been nice if it had been looked after by the owners better rather than relying on the guests to look after it for them. We have booked with Sykes Cottages quite a number of times before and this is the first time we have felt the need to point out things that were not as they should have been.

This holiday home is perfectly situated just off of Alnwick High street, with a Morrisons situated conveniently across the road, yet there is no noise disturbance whatsoever. The house itself was well presented, clean and modern with all the facilities that you would need. A bonus was the dishwasher that wasn't listed within the description. 4 stayed in the house comfortably, 2 Adults and 2 older teenagers, there were no complaints from all throughout the stay. Alnwick is a great base to explore Northumberland with some great pubs and restaurants. We would certainly recommend this property, and we would stay again without hesitation when in the area. Thank you for the wine and biscuits, it's always a nice little bonus!
Lovely, cosy cottage to stay in. It was great to be 2 minutes walk from the centre of Alnwick and all facilities as well as being able to park right outside the front door. We do like to do a little cooking ourselves when we're away, so just a couple of suggestions, a pair of oven gloves would be handy, as would a bread board. Also, maybe provide a shower mat for the bath, it can be a bit slippy without one. But, minor points really, the cottage is a 10 from us, the shower was excellent, the beds were extremely comfortable, firm mattresses just like our own at home, top notch TV set up, and many thanks for the welcoming bottle of wine and biscuits, both were demolished in a couple of days!
Gordon
Excellent property in prime location
Stella
Beautiful property, with everything we needed plus nice extra touches like the coffee machine & pods. So well positioned feels like you are tucked away yet it takes seconds to walk through an arch into the centre of Alnwick. Beds & lounge furniture all really comfortable and the decor is lovely. Bigger than I thought too, with a downstairs loo, coat shoe area & decent sized kitchen. I would definitely recommend and will be booking again.
Lesley
Lovely property tucked away, very quiet but once through the arch you are into the town, plenty of places to eat and drink, supermarket and bus station nearby. The house is well equipped and does have a dishwasher which is not in the description, the beds are super comfortable, decor is lovely and the house was very clean. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Had a fantastic break. The house was perfect for us, in a great location and I would happily go back and use again.
The property is in a great location and a perfect base for visiting the Northumberland Coastal area and the National Park. There were plenty of excellent local restaurants, cafes and bars all within easy walking distance in Alnwick, and we were spoilt for choice. The cottage had all the facilities you could need and there was a thoughtful welcome pack when we arrived. Can recommend without hesitation and would book again.
A lovely mews cottage. Very comfortable and clean with everything you could need thought about. So central that we didn't use the car on 3 days. Would highly recommend.
A lovely clean and comfortable modern cottage right in the centre of Alnwick literally a minutes walk to Morrisons supermarket. Everything we needed was provided and the biscuits and wine waiting for us on arrival were very welcome thank you. Generally quiet area especially during the week. Access to the property and parking right outside the property was tight but manageable. Recommended.
Vivien
We were very pleased with the cottage a good, quiet, central location with some outdoor space. The bottle of wine that was waiting for us was much appreciated too!
Christopher
Stayed at this property in August 2022. Everything spotless, evrything absolutely bang on. Property is within walking distance of shops, supermarkets, and also within walking distance of Alnwick Gardens and Alnwick Castle. Everything almost literally on your doorstep, yet location is quiet. We haven't finished with Northumberland yet would have no hesitation staying here again and none in recommending this property for a stay.
We had a great holiday at the cottage, one of the best weve stayed at. The accommodation was excellent and literally a couple of minutes walk to the shops. Having a designated parking space was a great benefit. This is not a criticism of the holiday home, just thought Id highlight that there is a beer garden behind the walled garden of this property but it didnt affect our stay as the pubrestaurant was closed for the majority of our time in Alnwick. Would happily stay here again!
Shirley
A perfect little house that felt like home from home. Immaculately presented and beautifully furnished. We loved the colour scheme. Very contemporary. It was brilliant to be in the heart of Alnwick but also lovely and quiet, being up the lane. Good to have our own parking space too. I will strongly recommend this lovely house to friends who might be visiting Alnwick in the future and will return here next time we come to Alnwick.
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage. Just a few minor issues which were addressed with the owners and didnt affect our stay. The cottage is beautifully and tastefully decorated. The location is convenient for all areas in the town and lovely beaches within a short drive. We will definitely stay in this house again when we visit Northumberland.
