Lauren

Friendly and helpful staff and a really great pub. Good beer, good atmosphere, good food. You can (and should) pre-order breakfast the night before which speeds up the process for everyone involved and is particularly helpful if you want to head straight off! Pack-up lunches are available on request and again, you can order what you want the evening before.

Lovely tranquil location, nice not to have to worry about extra locking onto my motorcycle overnight, Lana and Phil sorted an evening meal at very short notice.

A beautiful and tranquil small town with awesome countryside...
A beautiful and tranquil small town with awesome countryside and beautiful walks. Unfortunately, many local businesses have closed but there is a great take-away shop (Jack's) and a fantastic pub (The Cumberland Inn). The locals are fighting back and I wish them well with their Enterprise Town. If you are looking to get away and experience some beautiful solitude this is a great place to visit - just be careful and don't choose the accommodation I did (see my review). There are lots of hills, even in the town, and the pavements can be tricky. It's a long way from Melbourne, Australia but I hope to be back one day. I hear that there's a steam train that runs in the summer and I would love to experience it.

When 2 grandparents are travelling with a teenage grandson,...
When 2 grandparents are travelling with a teenage grandson, it’s not easy to find a place that it warm and inviting and meets all our needs. Lovelady Shield House Hotel was perfect! The online ratings for this property were out of date - it was perfect in every way. The rooms were lavish and beautifully presented with the best quality fittings and fixtures. This property has been recently upgraded and restored sympathetically with its history.The staff were so warm and friendly and made us feel at home. The breakfast was amazing and although they are not currently serving dinner the pub just a mile down the road was brilliant. Located near the geographic centre of the UK there is so much to see nearby with Hadrians Wall Romans Forts and much more. We loved this property and cannot praise it highly enough 10/10.VictoriaAustralia - 10Scored 10
A beautiful town with some lovely pubs and restaurants.
A beautiful town with some lovely pubs and restaurants. Cumberland arms was our favourite with nice food and amazing views on the beer garden /large balcony outside. Very quiet, chatty, friendly staff at the pubs but not a lively late night nightlife. We went for peace and quiet which is exactly what we got. Some. Beautiful walks with Ashgill waterfall a few minutes drive. Most impressive waterfall in seen in the UK! We got to stand behind it and touch it which I've only done at niagara! Will definitely be returning hereLindseyUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

9 out of 10 from me! The location is perfect in my eyes.
9 out of 10 from me! The location is perfect in my eyes. Set in beautiful scenery, it's quiet yet the walk to Alston town centre is only 5-10 minutes. The guest house itself is beautiful. There is a lovely lounge, a quaint and vintage hallway, a lovely area for eating and of course the lovely bedrooms that are on offer. Everything has character and I even got to play on the piano they have in the hallway! The food, absolutely stunning 10 out of 10. Breakfast is what me and mum had, so generous in terms of quality and qunatity. You also get to choose what you want and what you don't want. It was one of the best breakfasts I've had. Bedroom. We had the twin bed bedroom, Room 1. Absolutely love the layout, the quaint feeling inside and the bathroom and showed worked absolutely fine with minimal issues (slightly stiff to get going but fine once going!) My only negative...and it is a minor thing... It could have been a tad warmer, but then we went at a very cold spell and we were the only ones in the manor house at the time. There was heating, and a generous amount coming out from the radiator at the cold times of day. My advice to others would be to bring some extra layers in patticularly cold seasons when its below freezing!DouglasUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Beautiful little village with such charming shops and houses...
Beautiful little village with such charming shops and houses. A very close knit community and also friendly. The houses/dwellings are full of history and are kept so clean. They have local pubs The Turks Head, which we visited, they have a gorgeous cider called Friels, refreshing on a hot day. They were so kind, as they provided a bowl of water for our 2 little dogs! A local co-op, post office, chippy and kebab house Tonys, we had food from there last night, the pizza and Donner kebab was to die for! Definitely 5 star! The church in the town is the main feature and soaked in history. You can walk to any of these facilities. We found a river side walk out dogs loved it, we spotted a beautiful Shire horse and Shetland pony just grazing in a huge field, the weather was perfect, it has been a delightful break away from busy Blackpool.DaviesUnited Kingdom

- 9.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 22 reviewsVery lovely cottage on a farm. Excellent accommodations for our family with 3 comfy bedrooms and 3 bathrooms! Modern kitchen and comfy living room with wood stove. Wonderful place to come back to after day of exploring N. Pennines or Hadrians Wall. 1 mile from small village of Alston with gas station and pubs. The Cumberland is a wonderful local pub. The Cottage is the best place we’ve stayed on our 2 week UK tour!LandonUnited States
- 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 2 reviewsSpacious, comfortable accommodation. Very well equipped. Had everything we needed. Property listing says no wi-fi access but it was there and very good! Perfect base for 3 days walking on the Pennine Way with a day left over for a "normal" holiday. We parked our car at the end of each day's walk and Alston Taxis took us back to the start. The softies' way to do a tough stretch of the trail!
