Lovely welcome and very friendly host. Delicious breakfast and comfortable room.

This was a lovely stay in clean and well maintained hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, the hotel was beautifully situated with food options and the view from the bridge right outside is lovely too.

Diane was very charming. Breakfast had a lots of choices and they were delicious. Would definitely go back.

Loved it

The hosts were very friendly. A wonderful breakfast, made especially for us!

Very friendly staff, great big room (twin with ensuite) and delicious freshly cooked breakfast.

For a busy little street it became very quiet in the evening with no noise. Clean and tidy. Cheerful hostess

Highly recommend Shaftoes. Everything was first class from the welcome from Lois to delicious breakfast. So many little extra touches to make you feel at home and make your stay comfortable and enjoyable.

Friendly proprietors. Lovely bedroom and excellent breakfast.

Everything excellent. The room was comfortable, well equipped, and very clean. Everything worked and was convenient. Breakfast is excellent. You have to say what you want for a cooked breakfast the evening before but that isn't a problem at all Lois, our host, was very interested in our itineraries and was very happy to offer advice on whatever plans we add. Ideally located for the popular spots on the Wall, it's unlikely you could find anywhere better for your visit

Lovely welcome, great location, good food/pub close by, stunning breakfast.

Fabulous hosts and delightful rooms. Great breakfast too!

Very hospitable. Nice room, lovely breakfast and convenient for eating out. Great base for visiting Hadrian’s Wall attractions. Thanks to Lois and David.

Lovely B&B with excellent staff, big bright comfortable rooms and fantastic breakfast. Guest parking is also a plus. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend

We had a lovely stay at Shaftoes Guest House. The room was spotlessly clean, spacious and well appointed with many nice touches. Breakfast was delicious. Lois was an excellent source for local information and suggestions. Exceptional!

Guests were made to feel like family, with such friendly hosts. Always there to offer tips and advice for visits to local attractions in the area. An excellent breakfast always set up our day.

We stayed here for 1 nt whilst attending a wedding nearby. We loved this place. The room was spacious, clean and plenty of amenities. The breakfast was outstanding!!!! Pancakes and US style bacon with syrup, rivals the best that the US has to offer. If your considering staying here for any reason at all - you won't regret it. If you're travelling from the US (or anywhere overseas) and doing Hadrian's wall this is a beautiful accomodation that will be a highlight of your visit. I highly recommend you try Shaftoe's, it will provide the perfect stay.

The owners welcome you from the moment you arrive. It is exceptionally clean and the room we had was spacious. Breakfast is tailored to your requests . The owner was extremely helpful in notifying us of traffic issues around the area due to a lorry fire on the A69 and how best to avoid it. The property is in a quiet area with very little passing traffic.

Fantastic location, easy drive to Roman sites, and a short walk to the train station. Breakfast cooked to order was delicious and a nice variety. Room was larger than typical and a friendly greeting each morning. Highly recommended.

Lovely friendly host who made us so welcome, even giving us a little flask of fresh milk to fill our thermoses with coffee for the next day for our travels. We will return.
