Guests say
Alwinton Lodge is consistently praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped facilities. Guests appreciate the peaceful location and the thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and welcome treats. The lodge is a top choice for a tranquil retreat amidst Northumberland's natural beauty, with many recommending a return visit.
Guests frequently commend the lodge for its spotless condition, with many noting the high standard of cleanliness throughout the property. A few minor comments about cobwebs do not detract from the overall perception of an immaculate environment.
The lodge's location is described as quiet, picturesque, and well-situated for exploring Northumberland's attractions. While some guests mention it appears remote at first, they find it to be an ideal base for touring the area.
Comfort is a highlight, with guests finding the lodge welcoming and the beds particularly comfortable. There are a few suggestions for additional furniture, but overall, the lodge is seen as a cosy and relaxing place to stay.
The lodge is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and guests are pleased with the facilities provided. However, there are comments about the lack of a shelf in the shower and a shaver point, which suggests room for improvement in the bathroom facilities.
The thoughtful gestures, such as providing fresh flowers, biscuits, and milk, are frequently mentioned and appreciated by guests. While these kind touches are highly valued, it is politely noted that such extras, while common, are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
Settled on the grounds of Fram Park, amongst the rural greenery of Northumberland, rests this picture-perfect wooden dwelling, Alwinton Lodge. Set across one level and beautifully renovated throughout, Alwinton Lodge offers a truly enchanting setting for a romantic retreat for two. An off-road parking space greets you at the foot of this charming abode, meaning you can unpack your belongings and settle in with ease. Leave your muddy walking boots at the door as you step inside your new home-from-home, where you can look forward to unwinding with a steaming cup of tea in front of the television as your better half rustles up a romantic meal for two in the adjoining kitchen area. Pour yourself a drink and step outside to the front patio, where you can indulge in an alfresco affair as you take in your peaceful, countryside surroundings. After a long day exploring the coast and country, relax with a refreshing rinse in the shower before snuggling up under the covers of the double bed to catch your rest. A short walk from your doorstep will bring you into the heart of Longframlington, where you'll find two pubs, ideal for those evenings when you don't fancy cooking, along with a butchers and a corner shop to stock up on goodies to enjoy from the comfort of your holiday home. Let your four-legged friends play at the designated Longframlington Dog Area or enjoy a leisurely stroll through the vibrant trees and shrubbery at Longframlington Gardens. There's a wealth of must-see sights and attractions nearby, including the National Trust's Cragside, a remarkable Victorian country house adorned with landscaped gardens, as well as the Northumberland Country Zoo. Seaside adventures await along the Northumberland Coast AONB, whilst the open moorland of Northumberland National Park offers the best of both worlds. Explore the delights of this sought-after region with a stay at Alwinton Lodge.
Longframlington is a charming village situated in rural Northumberland, between the Cheviots and the coast, and with easy access to a network of superb walking options. There's plenty to see and do nearby, including Brinkburn Priory, a rebuilt Augustinian priory, along with The National Trust's Cragside House and Gardens. The Heritage Coast offers miles of beautiful sandy beaches, and Alnwick, with its spectacular Castle and Garden, is only 11 miles to the north.
