Claremount Reviews

This property is all about the location, literally 100 yards from the beach. It could do with modernising but was very clean and wasn't short of anything. We would stay there again mainly due to the location.
A lovely comfortable apartment with wonderful views and very close to shops and pubscafes. Alnmouth is a lovely small village and the apartment conveniently situated.
The views were brilliant and the property was big enough, but it would have had a better rating if it had been cleaner. The living room was very dusty and the coffee table had bits of chocolate on it from previous holiday makers , the mattress was very lumpy and could do with an upgrade, however the kitchen and bathroom had been upgraded to a better standard than the rest.
Accommodation was good just needed a good deep clean cobwebs in the corners of ceilings , heating system was a bit confusing , radiators coming on at 3 am in the morning . poor hot water pressure.
Lovely cottage very well equipped and comfy amazing view very close to the beach area stunning
We stayed at Claremont in April 2023 and it has generally improved to some extent on our recent visit . The problem with subsidence appears to have been resolved which was good to see .The accommodation remains the same as before i.e. fairly basic but comfortable. The shower is adequate but not brilliant. There are 2 matters that should be addressed by the owners, namely, the kitchen radiator is not working. My recollection is that it wasn't working 2 12 years ago so it appears not to have been rectified which is. poor particularly in November winter time. Also, the small front garden looks shabby. Next door property has had this small area gravelled and looks fine, even in winter. A little more care about the presentation of the property would reflect well on the owners. The big plus point about Claremont is of course its position which is fabulous which is why we have given an overall rating of 4.We have come to really like being at Claremont despite my comments and hope to return. Also, we really love Alnmouth.
This is a really lovely, comfortable and cosy flat, literally right on the sea front giving instant access to long beach walks. It is in close proximity 100m or so to some good restaurants, the local deli and general store. Also has a very smart well equipped kitchen.
Kathleen
Central heating all wrong came on all wrong needs regulating late October we ... Central heating all wrong came on all wrong needs regulating late October we needed it on more first thing in morning and evening we were cold and glad to be back home though in good position we would not rebook
The property is very spacious and comfortable. It is a little dated, but you can see that from the photos, so it didn't come as a surprise. It was extremely clean on arrival. The property is very close to the beach and town centre, so it was a perfect location for us. We will definitely book here again.
Claremount was as expected, near the coast. But our views of the wonderful beach was somewhat split by the front windows, because they were quite dirty. Inside, the property is well equipped, but on this occasion, it felt cold as there was neither central heating switched nor instruction on how to do so, if required. The property also features an electric shower, but an immersion switch is required if you want any hot water either to wash your hands or to handwash any dishes. In this day and age of combi boilers and instant hot water, it feels rather antiquated.
We enjoyed our stay and this flat is all about its great situation and view. The bed was comfortable but the wardrobes were difficult to use. The sofas were comfortable too but the cushions were worn and quite flat. The shower wasnt very good. The small garden at the front could be a nice place to sit and enjoy the view if it was tidied up and a couple of chairs added.
Enjoyed our stay, flat was fine, the small back yard should have something done with it so that you could sit out . It is only small but there could be some sort of seating . Even though the bins are there but overall I would come again, the location is fabulous . Heating needs checking it was coming on at 3am unnecessary .
Beautiful cottage everything we needed for a great stay very comfortable very well equipped a very prominent position with an amazing view of the sea and beach great for our dog. Susan and Phil Nottingham
We were delighted with Claremong and would definitely book it again. Lots of plus points it was spotlessly clean, spacious, warm and comfortable and, of course, the view from the lounge window was fantastic. The bed was very comfortable too. It was a great help to have clear instructions for use,with photos, for all the appliances. The information file was very comprehensive. Details like plenty of hangers in the wardrobes were also appreciated. There were just a few small things that we would have liked eg hairdryer, small milk jug, chopping board we only had the bread board, tray. We didn't expect to have to buy things like saltpepper as our previous rented property had these basics. Given the price of the property, we were also disappointed that we had to provide our own towels. But it was a lovely flat and we would very much like to return to it.
Kathryn
Nice property but needs a little tlc. It would be nice if towels were supplied as they are quite bulky to bring. Great location.
Ideally situated in Alnmouth. Handy for the local eateries. Lovely view of the sea from the living room. A nice property, we have been in better but certainly not the worst. A lovely four night break.
