Our first stay in Northumberland and this was a great spot! Walking distance to Barter Books, Alnwick castle and Alnwick town. Perfect quiet beach nearby (Long Houghton - great for rock pooling when tide out) and co-op just next door for essentials. We are a family of 5 with a dog and the property was well sized for us. Easy free parking outside x

A lovely place to stay in the heart of Alnwick. The amenities were brilliant with modern appliances including a washing machine, dishwasher etc. Plenty in the kitchen to cook your own food. Lovely decor and a helpful guidebook sent prior to getting there. Many thanks for a lovely stay

No fault of the property owners but the experience with Host & Stay was dreadful. Despite knowing that we had to cut short our holiday after our son & daughter were in a car accident that required us to return home after the first night, we continued to receive messages asking if we were enjoying our stay. I left a phone charger in the property and paid Host & Stay for its return. The charger arrived yesterday, a week after I’d paid the invoice. Concentrate on customers more and a little less on the bottom line.

We had a lovely stay at Porter Cottage. The house is lovely, well appointed and a perfect base to explore the Northumberland Coast. The location was great - around a fifteen minute walk into the centre of Alnwick.

We fad a fantastic few days here us this lovely, well appointed and very clean house. It’s super convenient for walking to the town of Alnwick and the castle. The key safe is quite tricky to open which needs a bit of attention and the second bedroom was tight for space. But no complaints from us - we enjoyed our stay very much

Porter's Cottage was a perfect choice for a long weekend, the cottage was exactly as described and Host & Stay communicated very clearly about everything from check-in, to amenities and check-out. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to stay in the area.

First impressions: a very welcoming. extremely clean and tidy place - once we had managed to get in. That was the only drawback, the instructions were for a different type of key safe and this one, although obvious in operation, was very reluctant to open. Excellent facilities; well equipped spacious kitchen with good quality equipment; and a large comfortable lounge Great to see the eco influence. Quiet area, easily walkable into town and to local transport Very comprehensive guide; which gives instructions for using the Hive thermostat - if you enjoy a treasure hunt try to find it (them). Good communication from Host & Stay and very quick responses to any query. Overall excellent and much recommended.

The location was ideal and you could walk to the high street very easily. The property looked like the photos shared on Airbnb. Spacious property and comfortable. Was nice to have a small outside courtyard also. Would happily stay again & recommend to friends/family :)

Well equipped home, as described and pictured. Decently clean apart from stair and upstairs carpets that had crumbs and debris from previous occupants (this is a shame as the rest of the property was clean and well presented). Beds were extremely comfortable, linen nice, bedrooms not fussy with clutter. Alnwick town within a comfortable walking distance as is Lidl which was roughly a 6 min walk. On street parking seems plentiful enough, it can be trickier later on in the evening but surrounding streets offer more parking. Small amount of welcome washing up liquid and soap provided which is always nice. Overall a pleasant stay, thanks!

Super location! House was in a nice quiet area, very handy for shops, town and local sites. Plenty to see and do. In particular, we liked the downstairs, as it had a lovely big kitchen which is great for those that love to cook or a nice big table if you’re just having a takeaway! Living room was great with a good quality, big TV (which can be quite hard to find in an Airbnb). Upstairs was ok, but bathrooms could be better with more hanging areas for towels etc. Also the cabinet above the sink in the main bathroom made it hard to access the sink in an already small room. We also would have appreciated more storage in the double bedroom as it was very limited. Despite this, we enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend!!

Had a lovely stay at Porter Cottage. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Short ten minute walk into Alnwick town centre with good choice of bars and restaurants, many of which are dog friendly. The castle is only a ten minute walk too. Great communication with host prior to and throughout our stay.Alnwick is a great base to explore the Northumberland coast.

Excellent Accommodation conveniently situated for the Northumberland coast. The cottage itself had everything you could need possibly need and the parking although on street was not a problem. Highly recommend.
