We haven't stayed in the B&B as we used to live near but have eaten and drank there many times. We can understand some of the comments about food. It is standard pub grub, not gastro pub stuff but not terrible either. Prices are reasonable. They do fantastic 2for1 deals on food in quieter months so look out for these.... More

The Keelman's was our second stop on a walk along Hadrian's Wall and couldn't be better located, the path almost runs through the carpark! The micro-brewery beers were really welcome and the food was very good - I can recommend the black pudding starter (though maybe as a main course!) Our room was very comfortable, nice and airy once we... More

Having stayed at The Keelman many times in the last few years, this was another return visit while visiting the area on business. The rooms in the Lodge where I usually stay are adequately sized for a couple and everything is clean and fresh. The hospitality tray could be seen as a meal in itself – four packets of very... More

We stayed here for our first night out on the wall walk. We had a lodge room which was quite spacious. Large towels, good water pressure with plenty of hot water. Bar soap and shampoo furnished. Flat panel TV which was too small for the room, free wifi in the room, writing desk. Clean room with a comfortable bed.

Stayed here two years ago while walking Hadrians Wall. Sufficiently impressed to come back & use it as a base for a couple of days whilst visiting the Newcastle area. Again not dissapointed, spacious quiet room in one of the lodges, stacks of parking & an excellent inclusive breakfast. Excellent pu & pub restaraunt adjoins accommodation.

we were there for a family christening, the place needs a good makeover, not a four star, the room I was in was ok but my Daughter had a family room and it was awful it could have been cleaner, The food was quite good and the staff were nice enough but I would not return

Lovely place to stay by the river Tyne. The pub onsite is attached to the Big Lamp Brewery and have some very nice real ales that are well priced. There is an ale there that is 11% proof but i dare not try it! The food in the restaurant is quite good although I thought that the breakfasts, while great,... More

We, like many others, have been going to this pub because of its good ale and food. So when we turned up on Sunday the pub was heaving as we'd come to expect. However what we didn't expect is the considerable hike in the price of a Sunday lunch since we last visited 6 months ago and the reduced food... More

We have frequented this local pub for many years especially for the beer and pleasant outdoor space. We have eaten from time to time both snacks and restaurant meals mainly when with family because that's the kind of menu offered. However this weekend we were seriously disappointed- well actually disgusted. We went to order paninis only to find they don't... More
