Lovely pub with rooms
Lovely pub with rooms. Friendly staff, big and comfortable rooms with nice decor (quite recently redecorated by the look of it), good bathroom, excellent breakfasts! Perfect spot for a stay in Rothbury.

Weekend getaway.
The room was lovely, clean and spacious.
We enjoyed a well cooked evening meal as well as the English breakfast in the morning.
We will certainly think about returning for another visit.

Warm & Friendly
We stayed here to explore the local area - particularly Cragside. We learned that the area has so much to offer - so will definitely be back! Our room was roomy and well equipped. The staff are really friendly and helpful. We didn't eat here (except for the excellent breakfast) but the food looked good and the bar had a nice vibe. Beers are good! Easy and free parking right outside

New beds please.
Firstly the good bits: lots of free parking right outside the door, friendly and efficient staff and the room was clean. Sadly the outside area wasn’t so attractive and the beds need replacing. So uncomfortable. We were right next to the kitchen and beer garden so it was a bit noisy while the pub was open. The food was very traditional and of an acceptable standard and reasonably priced. A nice little village for a wander and very handy for Cragside.

Excellent accomodation and ideal location
We had a really excellent 5 day stay. Our room (3) was huge with 2 kingsize beds and a large sofa. Bathroom was also a good size. The breakfast was good with excellent friendly, prompt service. A really good location for visiting the area and not too busy. Parking was never a problem.
It would have been useful to have some plug-in bed side lights rather than battery operated nightlights.
Overall, a wonderful stay and we would definitely stay here again.
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, which enhanced our stay.

The staff were fabulous very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent for the price. We had a dog room but it was clean and spacious. My only complaint was the tv we could only get bbc channels to work. But we were out all day . Lovely village and easy to travel from . Nice food available all day . Good value
