Nice pub, but same could not be said for the room which needed money spent on it. Bed was hard and pillows flat as a pancake. The worst thing however was the bathroom which was miniscule, and shower broke half way through (apparently this happens often I was told as the trip switch keeps cutting the power for quite a while I was told). Poor sound insulation from the pub downstairs and the occasional road noise. Dinner was tasty but very overpriced for what you got. Breakfast was quite good and staff overall were helpful and friendly. Shame as I wanted to like the place but there’s much room for improvement.

The food was good.I had dinner as well as breakfast.

Staff were excellent and food very good, lovely atmosphere, needing a lot of tlc in process of changing owners. Quiet area although another small town about 5 miles away with more facilities. Parking beside property on A68. Morpeth and Hexham nearby.

We had the most spacious room as other's were small ...comfy bed and lovely staff enjoyed our stay

Mukava paikka yöpyä, huone oli tehokkaasti toimiva ja olemukseltaan mukava

Pub was dated, and our room had a shower/toilet in a pod, so read the small print when booking. The pod was extremely small with little room to manoeuvre and the extractor fan did not work. Also music could be heard in our room from downstairs. The positive is the shower was warm, the staff extremely friendly and the breakfast good. Also the local clientele were warm, friendly and welcoming

We had food in the bar. It was really good, large portions very tasty, would highly recommend. We stayed in room 7. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. There was no air con however. The room needed the windows open to keep the temperature down,however just outside the window was a very loud extractor fan which kept up awake. It stopped later on not exactly sure what time, but started again very early. The hosts however were lively, good craic, and did everything in their power to accommodate and ensure you had a pleasant stay. Even though that particular room had that issue it would not pur me off staying again or recommending to someone to stay.

Spot on coaching inn, proper pub with good drinks and home cooked food menus. Sitting next to the river Rede,15 miles from Kielder. Very clean ànd the staff were excellent throughout our stay. We'll be going back for sure. Highly recommended.

Traditionell gammal pub i pytteliten by. Rum med gammal standard, mycket märkligt "badrum"- trångt, plastigt och gammalt. Fri parkering. Bra pris. Vänlig personal, god mat i puben och jättegod frukost!

Really friendly staff, great beer, a comfy bed and a quiet night's sleep - followed by a good breakfast.

Due to circumstances I had to leave. Everybody, including one of the guests, did everything they could to help me. These People are in my heart.

Lovely 2 night stay great locations and friendly staff. Room would benefit from a little updating.

We had a warm and friendly welcome, the food was excellent, the service excellent, friendly and super helpful both evening and at breakfast. The staff are certainly the stars of the show. The room was clean along with a generous bathroom. We found the mattress uncomfortable but may have been heaven to others. Yes, the property is a little dated but suited our needs. The location was convenient on the A68 in a quiet village peaceful setting next to a pretty river. This pub was also very dog friendly, dogs allowed in bar for mealtimes, with lots of wee walks around to keep the pups happy. It was great value for money, this was my second stay and would go back again, it’s a great half way B & B to Aberdeen.

Check in was awkward, lacked a warm welcome. Our room was spacious and the decor was welcoming, however little issues, eg at least one wall needs repainting, extension lead has to be used to plug in kettle. Single glazing with paint flaking windows. Breakfast was excellent with cheerful staff. Some love and attention to room could have improved our stay.

Nice older world pub would go again Nice staff lot's of places to go

Great little pub. Nice rooms and friendly staff

They made a fresh breakfast for us. Staff was very friendly and helpful

A lovely little village pub/hotel, nice food, nice beer & nice staff. Very friendly/helpful. Great location if you're in/about the Keilder Forest. Good value for money. If i had one gripe, (not a biggie - but for visability) my room was directly above the pool table & bar speakers, and i could everything very clearly. I was after an early night for an event the next day & could hear the bar music quite clearly. It did all stopped at closing time though. Otherwise - It wouldnt stop me going back.

Amenities staff

All good
