Where to stay in Alnwick?
I stayed at the White Swan and would be staying there again when I visit Alnwick in Northumberland again.
A beautiful 300-year-old baroque coaching inn that happens to be 3 minutes walking distance away from the Alnwick Castle and Gardens (talk about a convenient location).
One of its most beautiful features is the dining room that is the exact same dining room the Olympic ship had.
When Olympic (Titanic’s sister ship) was retired the dining room was auctioned and the owner of the White Swan purchased it and brought it back to the hotel and had it installed there… When you walk into that dining room you get transported to the charm and elegance of that era.
The wood paneling, the stained glass windows, mirrors, and carved ceilings from the transatlantic ocean liner Olympic, Titanic’s near-identical sister ship will definitely get you feeling the good feels.
