An elderly Coaching Inn - which, sadly, is starting to show it's age. Staffing levels do not seem to be adequate; there are known problems with the hot water supply and the meal menu was limited. Nevertheless, the room was quiet and comfortable enough and the hotel is very well situated for visiting the coast and numerous local attractions such as Bamburgh Castle. Useful bus services to Berwick, Bambugh and Newcastle.

Needs a bit of remodeling
Charming town to stay in for a trip to Bamburgh castle. Old hotel so some quirks to be expected. It was a picturesque view from our hotel room and our beds were comfortable and clean However, toilet didn’t flush reliably and shower was not functioning. Glasses by the kettle were grimy and there were several spiders taking up residence in the bathroom. The food was very good and the women running it was lovely and clearly doing everything herself.

Great for eating - but that's it
It's as if this hotel is a work in progress which is surprising due to its history - Smells very damp and the decor needs a major lift as do the rooms which are exceptionally basic. This was very disappointing. Facilities in rooms, shower, toilet, carpets, beds and storage ALL need improving. Then as a paradox you go for food in a modern, well presented restaurant which has amazing food! A real dilemma to suggest folks stay here - the place was full of Groupon deals and everyone raved about the food and 'accepted' the conditions because of that. I dont share this, the place needs an upgrade and to get rid of the overpowering smell of damp and decay.
