Bed and Breakfast The Shepherd's Rest
Alnwick Moor, Alnwick, NE66 2AH, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
Everything - from the welcome I received when I arrived. The amount was very reasonable. Everything was exceptionally clean. It was within walking distance to the town so really a most enjoyable stay.
United KingdomStaff (especially Ben and Claire) were friendly and helpful. It’s good value, comfortable and in a convenient location. Being able to eat in the pub restaurant downstairs was convenient and the meals were good.
United KingdomThe Shepherds Rest is a gem..beautifully clean..everything you need for a really great stay. Their Covid 19 precautions were the best I’ve seen..felt really safe and protected. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming..the food was exceptional..all home made, a simple but well thought out menu to cater for everyone, well cooked and presented..the breakfasts were fantastic..luckily my partner has a big appetite as I couldn’t eat half of it. I can’t recommend the Shepherds Rest enough..Thank you for a really great time.
