Stunning
What a property! Fabulous place to stay at Christmas time. We had a lovely break and enjoyed the local area for walks. The only thing that let it down was the condition of the cooker - it was extremely dirty and really needed a deep clean.

The Tower is a splendid building and it was a real treat to stay there. We really enjoyed ‘going back in time’ but with modern conveniences.

Special place to stay
Stayed with friends over from USA. We all loved the place, it had the WOW factor we were looking for. Beautiful interior, views and the welcome pack starter was much appreciated (as was the thoughtful store cupboard). Lovely and warm when we arrived and we had great fun in the evenings playing snooker. Would book to stay here again.

Enjoyed the holiday but…
This is a beautiful property in a lovely location and we’ve enjoyed both times we’ve stayed here but we were disappointed that the property has not been maintained as well as it could be since our previous visit. No wood / kindling for the fire, lots of dead flies in the kitchen, a poor mix of crockery, only 2 saucepans that work with the induction hob, a number of radiators didn’t work etc. All little things that are easily fixed and hopefully will be for the next visitors.

Back to Northumberland
The building is unique and was a great adventure for the family staying in our own mini castle - but comfortable and homely. Comfy beds quiet location so all slept like logs. Instructions for the oven and hob would have been helpful. Great base for a relaxing getaway within easy reach of Lindisfarne, Bamburgh and Alnwick castles and Northumberlands beaches and wild open spaces

Lovely stay at the tower.
Great property, lovely location - makes an excellent base for exploring the towns and coastline. Layout of the accommodation worked brilliantly for us (family of 5 adults and one dog)....plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Has a great sized kitchen, lounge and games room for whole family gatherings in the evening. Excellent communication with the host....lovely welcome pack on arrival which was very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Our own castle!
Staying at The Pele Tower was a really fun experience. Everything was of the highest quality - the family bathroom was a work of art and the kitchen was beautiful as well. We also found a riverside path nearby where we could walk by the river and then cross on a footbridge to the village on the other side. We couldn't have asked for more when staying here.
