Overall good. Not a fan of the communal breakfast but that’s because I’m grumpy in the morning :). Comfortable bed and shower was great.

Sheelah & Peter are extremely pleasant and helpful. The spacious house are lovely and extremely quiet. The breakfasts are excellent in the large beautiful dining room. The surrounding countryside is spectacular (drive north on nearby Devil’s Causeway and look west to the Cheviots in the late evening, but be careful of the hares on the road.) The rooms are spotless, the beds very comfortable, the showers bliss, the rates excellent. We hope to return. The hosts’ recommendations for evening meals were spot on: Milan in Wooler and The Black Bull in Lowick (although be wary about short pints there — I had to remind the barman twice! The venison loin there and haddock were excellent though 😋).

Amazing hosts, a very warm welcome, so kind and helpful. Room large and clean, couldn't ask for more. Fantastic breakfast also. We totally enjoyed our stay, thanks so much!

Big country house in which all three b&b rooms have a view to the front, which is lovely. The rooms are clean, bright and country-style comfortable; mine had a large bed, good quality bedding and an adjoining bathroom with decent shower/hot water, but complimentary shower products in sachets are always a bugbear of mine - usually too difficult to open if you haven’t brought scissors. I gave up. Luckily there were also some mini bottles of stuff. So from a comfort point of view, the room was good. What was strange - and I wasn’t sure whether to include this but it did really jar with me - was the welcome. It maybe feels unfair to judge a b&b on the friendliness of the hosts because staff being professionally detached can seem pretty normal for a hotel. But here, where you need to interact directly with them, it was immediately odd. Zero interest in you as a guest, no pleasantries at all when you arrive, rather you are shown up to your room and immediately ‘processed’. I was a bit taken aback. The hosts asks open questions, eg “What time would you like breakfast?” and when you say 9am would be great, replies that you can’t have breakfast at 9, as they only serve between 8 and 8:45. Same for “What would you like for breakfast?” I asked for a cheese omelette and was met with a long cool stare followed by: “I’ll have to see if I can manage that”. In summary, perfectly good accommodation, but don’t expect a warm welcome.

A beautiful idealic farmhouse nestled in the countryside with picturesque views and ample scenic walks. Upon arrival the hosts were very welcoming and made it feel less of a bed and breakfast and more like visiting friends. It was clear to see the owners take great pride in their house as walking through to my room it was very clean and well presented. The room was just as advertised and much like the rest of the property well presented and clean. Amenities were plenty and top ups were readily available. I honestly haven't slept as well as I did in a very long time. Once the lights were turned off there was no light pollution and it was deafly quite par the odd hoot of an owl which was a welcome change from the city scene I'm used to. Unfortunately I wasn't able to experience breakfast due to early arrangements, however I did view the breakfast room which looked very well presented. A front door key was provided along with my room key which made coming and going much more relaxed and just added to the homely feel. Overall I'd highly recommend this establishment would say this is must stay if you ever find yourself visiting the area.

It’s a wonderful place and the hosts are just lovely people..

The hosts made me very welcome and the property is stunning! Situated in a beautiful location. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. Would definitely like to stay there again.

Peter and Sheila were wonderful hosts. They gave us ideas of where to eat and places to see. Breakfast was very good and enjoyable with them providing information about the area. If we return to the Northumberland area we will definitely return there to stay again.

Great place, easy parking, surrounded by nice countryside. Would stay again.

Unique location. Beautiful room. Quiet. Great breakfast. Great owners of local knowledge.

Great stay.

Last minute booking and we were delighted with a great B&B Everything was really clean, comfy bed, warm room and great shower. Very tasty breakfast which was lovely and fresh. We enjoyed a chat with Sheila & Peter - great hosts. Many thanks!

Enjoyed a delightful overnight stay at East Horton for a walking weekend. Highly recommended in every way!

This has been my favourite UK staycation! The hosts were so lovely and kind. The rooms were clean and have everything you need with a few extra touches like dressing gown, heaters/hot water bottle and tea/coffee. The cooked breakfast was soo tasty! The location is perfect and not too far from everything..lovely views of cheviot hills. I have nothing negative to say...it was the perfect stay! Thank you! I will definitely stay here again next time I am in Northumberland!

The location was just fantastic. The farmhouse was on a slight hill with a fantastic view from the bedroom window which was spacious, clean and comfortable. We chose our B&B on both the location and the reviews. The location was fab but the owner did not live up to the reviews, which I can not understand, as most people said how friendly and helpful the owners were. Sheila was nice when we saw her but the male owner (didn't even introduce himself) was unfriendly and made us feel unwelcome right from the start. We arrived after 4pm and had to ring the doorbell a few times. He angrily answered the door, said he was in the back and that his wife usually 'dealt with this sort of thing' but was out. Then said 'So what do you want for breakfast then' without telling us what was available! We asked if they did a cooked breakfast, as we assumed they did. Nothing else e.g. smoked haddock etc was mentioned and we ate the same breakfast items for 7 days. We didn't mind that but the surly attitude towards us at breakfast we did mind. Many days he barely said a word to us but was pleasant to the nice couple also staying some of the days we were. On mentioning small problems he was surly and ungracious and saying other people didn't have a problem. E.g. BBC not working, asking did you press no.1 then, like we were stupid. The water went cold before we washed which made him angry. He told us off in front of the other guests because we went out and left the car without telling him!

Classic country home with fantastic hosts and wonderful breakfast. Would definitely come back.

Lovely hosts made this a perfect base for exploring the area. We look forward to returning again and happily recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, clean and welcoming place to stay.

Welcoming hosts in a beautiful house in a stunning location. Thoroughly recommended!

Lovely place to stay off the beaten track

Sheila and Peter are great hosts. The room was lovely and beds very comfortable. Super breakfast - we had a lighter version of the cooked breakfast but could have had the full works.
