Nicole and her staff were wonderfully accomodating and nothing was too much trouble. Our room had a shared balcony with a beautiful view looking out over the grass and trees and river. We watched a game of cricket from our balcony in the early evening. It was bliss. Our bed was huge, with cool crisp good quality linen and our... More

Just spent 2 nights at the hotel. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, the food was good, we had a lovely room with balcony overlooking the river and the weather was beautiful. The hotel is well placed for exploring Northumberland - we visited Holy Island, Bamburgh and Seahouses and there are lovely walks from the hotel along the river... More

Stayed in many hotels over the years and this one is second to none. The staff without exception were very pleasant and helpful. The room was spotless spacious and as it was warm weekend they had left a sheet in case we didn't want to use the duvet. They asked us if we would prefer fresh milk instead of the... More

we spent a 2 night weekend here on 18th and 19th May. The room was adequate, though the bathroom was a little tired and the shower was awkward to use. There were 2 cask ales on draught, and a good selection of wines. The menu was reasonably varied with a choice of 5 main courses, and all the food eaten... More

There was a BAAFEST event taking place in the garden and cricket... More

Have read mixed reviews of hotel and I guess it boils down to personal taste. Good points fabulous location for Northumberland National Park, Kielder Forest, etc. Room very large and one of the most comfortable beds I have slept in. Bathroom dated needs updating but functional. Staff very friendly. Food good but not exceptional. A terrific base for this part... More

The garden rooms at this hotel are absolutely beautiful. We were overlooking a cricket pitch which belongs to the hotel, with the South Tyne river beyond. There was a wealth of wildlife to see which wasamazing.The restraunt menu was very good and resonably priced. We didn't have time to test the pool and sauna but it seemed very popular. The... More
