Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Joiners Arms is praised for its charming, clean rooms, some featuring roll-top baths and Juliet balconies with lovely views. Guests often enjoy the rural location, finding it ideal for countryside walks and a convenient 15-minute walk to the sea. The pub/restaurant next door is a highlight for many, with its very good food, though some guests have noted that the free-standing bath ran cold water sometimes. the hotel's proximity to Alnwick Castle (less than 30 minutes by car) makes it a convenient base for exploring.
