My husband booked us a couple of nights here in early September as a treat. He had stayed for a one night stop over on a wet cycling trip with the lads and was so impressed he wanted to take me! Janice is a wonderful host and has a wealth of information for visitors and is so helpful you cannot... More

My wife Pat and I recently returned home from our third visit to Westlea. As before we were warmly greeted by Janice who with her son Paul an outstanding chef owns, and run's Westlea. Westlea guest house is of the very highest standard in all respects, very clean and comfortable with food to die for. The location close to the... More

May 2012 along with 8 friends we picked the time the weather finally improved. 4 Mg's set off from Holmes Chapel in Cheshire for Alnmouth and the Westlea guest house our base for our annual 5 day road run. We had researched the Westlea so we expected it to be good. It was brilliant. Clean, welcoming loads of information to... More

Warm greeting at 3.30pm on a blustery day for 2 weary cyclists !!. Janice went the extra mile to help us sort out our evening meal . Rang 5 local restaurants to find fresh fish for our meal. The Sun Inn came up trumps !! One resident had a Birthday to remember at breakfast , when she was presented with... More

Janice is a true gem. She was so welcoming from the booking to our leaving. Nothing was any bother she could't of been more helpful. The bed and breakfast doesn't really have a website so I was abit nervous as I like to get a feel for were I am staying. The guest house is overlooking an estuary, unforunately we... More

We had no trouble arranging breakfast for 8am (we were walking the coastal path) but Janice declined our evening meal booking. We ate at the the Hope and Anchor, and in Warkworth (Topsey Turvey's). Check the Westlea tariff before booking, as the web info is misleading. Janice is lovely and made endless efforts to confirm party meal bookings ahead, and... More

We stayed in a room with a balcony overlooking the beautiful river estuary - surely the best room in the house and we loved the drama of the sunrise and sunset. Very helpful and friendly host who went to lots of trouble suggesting places to eat but Alnmouth is very small and it was a quiet time of the year... More

I concur with all the good reviews that have gone before. This is one of the nicest guest houses we have styed in, in the UK. Janice was a delight, our room was fabulous, and the sitting room amazing for a small guest house. We loved the situation. Our only complaint was that we did not have time to stay... More

Could not wait to return to Westlea for the third time, The Guest House is just superb in a very quiet village in a secluded location. Janice could not serve evening meals this time due to renovation but will be able to in 2012. Where else do you get offered a choice of 12 cereals plus six fruits for your... More
