Good enough for the price. I came to see the Olympic room, which is furnished with panelling, windows and other artifacts from Titanic's sister ship. Breakfast was excellent. The staff were very helpful arranging a taxi when Uber fell through.

Alnwick is navigable on foot, and The White Swan was centrally located. Breakfast was cheerfully presented and the staff went out of their way to help me make a connection at the Almouth rail station two miles away.

Lovely, friendly staff and a beautiful restaurant. Fab little car park at the back, which is very handy. The only thing which might stop us staying again is the bed: it was really springy, old and uncomfortable, so neither of us slept well.
