The Schooner Hotel and Restaurant, Alnmouth

We made two mistakes booking into this hotel. One was not finding these reviews before we visited and two was booking for an evening meal. We ordered 4 starters and 5 main meals. All were sent back and we refused to pay. Chips were re-heated and rock hard, Lasagne was a solid lump dry and in-edible. Scampi was cold and the ale pie consisted of thin gravey and little or no meat. The room was ok but no chair so only sitting on the bed. No hotel information other than a menu!! This place badley needs a visit from the Hotel Inspector (Ch4 TV) AND Gordon Ramsey!
