we were in there a couple of years back. When we arrived it was "windier than forecast" and we were met on the runway by a "follow me" vehicle which lead us right up to the hangar doors. We were pushed indoors as soon as the prop stopped turning. This saved the embarrassment of blowing over/away before tie downs could be employed. Our hosts could not have been more helpful, they rang up and arranged overnight accommodation in the nearby village and lent us a vehicle to get there in. The following day it was socked in so we borrowed the vehicle to go into Alnwick for a look around.

11 out of 10 for hospitality.

Do check on their operating hours, I think that they have a strict 7pm curfew and possibly a silence until after breakfast in their rules.
