The Hope & Anchor is reputed to be one of the oldest buildings in Alnmouth village and although originally two cottages, it has been an Inn for as long as the present villagers can remember and it's walls will no doubt carry secrets and stories, which only they can tell.
Today it is under the ownership of John and Barbara Davison, whose main aim is to provide a comfortable base from which the guest can enjoy the delights of the heritage coastline, golf courses, cycle ways, walks and wide sandy beaches.
John and Barbara provide a special welcome to all of their guests, with hearty breakfasts, picnic lunches (by prior arrangement) and a cosy well stocked bar.
The atmosphere is relaxed and without undue formality.
Fully licensed premises.
Freshly brewed tea and coffee from the bar
Picnics by prior arrangement
Family/twin/double and single rooms (mostly en-suite).
Conference facilities on request
Group bookings on request
All bookings must be confirmed with a small non-refundable deposit per person.
The staff are well versed in their knowledge of the surrounding area and can help you to plan your stay, booking boat trips, horse riding, checking out the opening times of the historic houses and castles and safe crossing/tide times for Holy Island - anything to make your visit as pleasant as possible.
Take a well-deserved short break or perhaps stay for a little longer
