A great B&B

Everything you would want from a B&B - a warm welcome from Lois - including a cup of tea - lovely clean and well appointed room and ensuite and a great breakfast selection prepared by David. A good base from which to explore Northumberland.

We easily found the property and were given a personal tour and a lovely pot of tea. We slept well and had a scrumptious breakfast every morning. Dining was a quick walk into town and very nice as well.

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.
