Host & Stay - Sion Hall Cottage

Good location, nice property with everything you need

All good for short stay

Very comfortable and an amazing location

The back yard is probably the least attractive area of the property.

The property itself was great Location fantastic Restaurants/bars/cafes & shops on your doorstep

Only one thing and that was the hard mattress on the double bed.

Lovely property in a very central location, walking distance to pubs, restaurants and Alnwick castle.

Nothing

The cottage is lovely it's the surrounding areas which caused us problems. The house is a shirt walk to the main street in Alnwick.

As said previously, the cottage is lovely it is just such a shame where it is situated. No disrespect to the surrounding area. However, when we stayed, we felt unable to relax because of the behaviour of some individuals living directly across from the property. We witnessed drug deals directly outside of the window of the cottage and also anti-social behaviour in the flats directly opposite. We had booked for three nights at the property however only stayed for 2 . We were woken each morning in the early hours (3.40am one morning 5.15am the second morning ) one of the mornings by someone shouting and trying to kick the door down of a property directly opposite to gain access. This went on for sometime! The person was obviously under the influence of something and was seen to be pacing up and down. This obviously was concerning to us, and we did feel very vulnerable. Throughout the stay, we noticed groups of people sitting in the communal garden drinking and smoking cannabis! It certainly wasn't the tranquil surroundings as advertised! As I say, the cottage is lovely, and I feel for the owners. However, we do feel that people should be aware of what could happen. We approached host and stay with our complaint and asked for our money back for the last night when we didn't stay however we were told the surrounding area and the surrounding neighbours are not their esponsibility or concern! PLEASE BE AWARE !

Centrally located so close to bars and restaurants lovely and clean and modern throughout

Because of its central location you do get noise from the local pub and the flats across the road is very ACTIVE of an evening ( seems drugs are rife everywhere) not enough cleaning products and only one bin liner for a whole weeks stay is a bit mean ! Having stayed at several host and stay properties we were a little disappointed with no toiletries it’s the little things that make all the difference but it wouldn’t stop us from booking again

Everything. We would book again in the future if available.

Nothing!

A Lovely fresh and clean cottage. Beautifully maintained. Well catered for. Great location.

The little outside area wasn’t the most attractive place to sit due to adjoining building work being undertaken. Residents in flats opposite were a bit lively at the weekend, but no problem at all.
