“Beautiful hotel in the countryside but near some of Northumberland’s loveliest sights.”
Good location for visiting the Northumberland coast - Farne Islands, Bamburgh, lindisfarne all nearby. Hotel was lovely and staff were helpful and friendly, particularly the restaurant staff. They were so conscious of those with special needs and where best to seat them. Our room was far bigger than I expected with huge windows. Liked the fact you got bottled water everyday, not just the first day.
