The Apothecary Reviews

Sally
Excellent location, 5 minutes walk from the bus station and less to the castle. I had everything I needed and was very comfortable. The host was very responsive when I needed to contact him, which was greatly appreciated. Some really nice little touches, including knowing that the bedroom curtains had been made by the host's mum!
Kathleen
Very quirky and comfortable place, very central to so many places to visit and the hot tub was brilliant.
Dick
I hadn't realised when I booked (somehow) but the property is Harry Potter themed to a very high degree and done exceptionally well with fabulous attain to detail...
Kirsty
Great location, quirky interior but it should only be used as a base, don't plan to spend a lot of time in the room as it is not particularly comfortable.
Christine
A lovely quirky little flat in a great location

Alnwick Castle and Gardens - NE66 1NQ
about 0 Miles
Alnwick Castle and Gardens today are perhaps best known for their roles as Hogwarts in Harry Potter movies but have for many years been a family favourite attraction in Northumberland. The beautiful medieval castle is open to the public and during school holidays and at Christmas and Halloween a range of activities can be enjoyed including Santa's Workshop, a Pumpkin Parade, Spell Making Lessons and Owl and Bird of Prey Flying.
Cragside House and Gardens - NE65 7PX
about 9 Miles
Cragside House and Gardens (National Trust) are a popular Northumberland attraction with a beautiful stately home and gorgeous grounds to explore. The rhododendron labyrinth is a unique and fun addition to the grounds and there is also an adventure playground where children can let of steam. It is the stunning scenery that attracts most of the visitors though with many bringing a picnic for a relaxing family day out. The house itself hosts exhibits which change regularly. World of the Water Wizard is currently on display.
Go Ape Northumberland - NE48 1NT
about 27 Miles
Go Ape! has really taken off and become one of the most popular attractions in the UK.  The Northumberland course is set in the stunning grounds of Matfin Hall.  Described as a high wire forest adventure this really is one for the more daring as the course takes place right up in the tree tops.  Giant tree top obstacle courses include ladders, bridges, tunnels and some of the country's best zip lines.  You will be provided with all safety equipment and training on site.
Conundrum Farm - EX5 3AQ
about 29 Miles
With easy access from the A1 this lovely farm just north of Berwick makes a fantastic family day out.  Follow the farm trail and meet an array of friendly farm animals.  Kids will also enjoy the indoor and outdoor play areas, pet barn and tractor circuit.  The admission fee is excellent value and you will get a free bag of food for the animals and a bag of fish food for the trouts in the fish pond. When you want a bite to eat, the licensed restaurant is the place to go with quality home cooking and a charming location in some of the converted farm buildings.
