    Lovely quaint and quirky property, lots to see on the walls to get your attention, Pool table a great touch if you have kids, Highly recommend

  • Alison

    Really high standard of cleanliness and everything we needed was provided. Great central location in Alnwick, with lots of good places to eat (we loved The Dirty Bottles pub for meals out), and just a few minutes walk to the castle. There was no parking on site but this wasn't a problem as there is plenty of free parking within a couple mins walk. The owners were fantastic and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. I would definitely return to Pringles Yard and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and family.
