The Red Lion Inn Shortlist*
Alnmouth, Northumberland
Good Hotel Guide Review
Watch the sun go down over the Aln estuary from the sheltered garden of this traditional 18th-century coaching inn, which stands opposite the parish church in a pretty village. ‘A popular local watering hole’, the place is run with ‘friendly’ staff. The wood-panelled bar entices with real ales and beers from artisan brewers; daytime pizzas come straight from a wood-fired oven. ‘Tasteful, well-appointed’ bedrooms on the first floor have modern oak furniture, a ‘comfortable’ bed and a smart bathroom, plus local teas and biscuits. Breakfast, ordered the night before, has ‘trencher portions’, including vegetarian options. Dinner suggestions at village eateries and places nearby are supplied.
