Great location, lovely staff
Pros:

The location is great. It’s a little tired/odd in the decor but better than a uniform modern hotel with no spirit. The staff were really friendly which was lovely

Cons:

The food was great but took far too long making breakfast particularly stressful as we needed to leave. The staff were trying their best.

Choose your time to fit with the tides. The village and island are very quiet when the tide is high.
Pros:

Cooked traditional breakfast was fine. Room was very comfortable and also had wonderful view of castle and harbour. Good village to stay in, quiet when tide is in and most tourists retreat to mainland.

Cons:

Nothing bad comes to mind.

A comfortable end to the St Cuthbert's way
Pros:

We had a lovely welcome despite being a little early for check in. Whilst I gripe about the house keeping below, they did excel at the quantity of milk and beverages available in the room. Electric sockets were well situated. And breakfast (apart from eggs (below) was excellent, a great choice of drinks, cereals and pastries.

Cons:

House keeping might want to pay more attention to how many toilet rolls they issue during changeover as we had only a nearly empty roll and no spare. During breakfast they had an issue with their gas supply so no eggs. Whilst that may seem bad, the staff were really accommodating at providing substitutes with some breakfast items.

Delightful, relaxing stay-over on Holy Island
Pros:

Beautiful location of course. Free parking, dog-friendly, lots of outdoor seating for the unexpected sunshine :)
Functional but very sweet top floor bedroom, which easily accommodated x4 adults. Wonderful view to the castle - at the top of the house, up 4 flights of shallow stairs (=managed by 85 year old with some mobility issues.) Comfy beds...
(Nosied at the other rooms at cleaning/changeover = just lovely decor - quite varied styles! from country elegance to quirky, modern glitz.)
Charming dining room, tasty breakfast and large pub dining room with cosy nooks.
Friendly staff - bit short on numbers the 1st night but valiantly strived to serve everyone in a timely manner. Lots of info available re island walks and the island in general.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Staff were very friendly, we had room number 10 which featured stunning views of both lindisfarne castle and the priory. We would definitely book here again and would recommend to friends and family if they were planning a trip to the island. The full Northumbrian breakfast was amazing and the evening food in the pub was fantastic as well. Free parking on site.

Cons:

Nothing to change.

Most incredible view on Holy Island!
Pros:

Absolutely incredible room with the most fantastic view of Lindisfarne castle and the priory walls. Super comfortable and enormous bed, massive spacious room and friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious. Quiet at night and perfect for peace and relaxation once shops close with the causeway/tide and after a long walk around the island.

Cons:

Our room was incredible but it was above the kitchen, so at times smelt of cooking. We didn’t mind this, especially due to how amazing the room was, but it’s something to consider. I also paid £12.50 for a sticky toffee pudding with ice cream which stung slightly!
