Fabulous rooms in a fabulous location served by fabulous hosts. Please forgive the repetition but…read morethe Beach Court is simply not to be missed. The B&B is situated at the end of the road directly next to Beadnell harbor and offers amazing views and easy access to the docks and beaches. The Cheviot is the larger room and the Lindisfarne the smaller but both rooms are beautiful with windows that overlook the harbor. If you can I would suggest doing as we did and reserving both for family or friends - which gives you exclusive use of the downstairs lounge and makes breakfast a private affair. The owners Russell and Carole were the perfect hosts - offering useful advice and helping us make the most of our stay in Northumberland. Carole also prepared our delicious cold and hot breakfasts. Make sure to give her a days notice and ask for the locally sourced kippers and/or bangers. The Beach Court does have animals about - cats and dogs and birds are part of the experience so if you are pet phobic this may not be the B&B for you. On the other hand, both we and our children loved petting their cat when she deigned to make her appearances. In short, the Beach Court and Beadnell are simply delightful - we wish we could have stayed longer.

If you're interested in wildlife and the countryside then these are the holiday cottages for you…read more There are three self-catering cottages on a working farm in the Northumberland National Park. They overlook Whitelee Fell National Nature Reserve and are only two miles from the Scottish border. The cottages are rated 4-star and have every mod con you could want. The one Mr CuteBadger and I stayed in had a fully kitted out kitchen, including a washing machine, microwave etc. The decor is lovely and everything was clean and tidy. There are even cameras rigged up around the farm so you can sit with a glass of wine in front of the TV and watch the nocturnal wildlife come out to play. We watched barn owls, foxes, lots of different birds and bats - sadly no badgers though. The couple who own the cottages are lovely and do everything they possibly can to make your stay a good one. The fridge is stocked with locally-produced beer and the freezer with locally-made ice-cream - you just settle up when you leave. They also lent us their bat detector so we could have a late-night bat safari. We had a wonderful stay and can't wait to go back.

I stayed here from 25th-28th October with my sister in law and my partner. We booked out a Wigwam,…read morenot wanting to brave camping in the cold. The Wigwams are an absolute gem. It was lovely and warm and very comfortable. It was spacious and well kitted out with a kettle and a small fridge. The fire pit is an excellent idea. It is lovely on a night to have the warmth from the fire whilst sitting outside under the stars. Facilities Absolutely spotlessly clean. The kitchen is really well kitted out, nice little sofa and a flat screen TV and loads of equipment. One of the ovens has a broken dial and the temperature is guess work but we managed. This is a lovely place and I would definitely go back.

My wife and I stayed at the Beach House for two nights in September 2024. We both really enjoyed…read moreour stay here. The location is faultless, right on the beach road with stunning views of the sea and the Farne Islands. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome here. The onsite bar and restaurant were excellent and we were so grateful to have these options available. The room was quite small but well equipped and very comfortable. French doors opened to a small shared garden that were able to let some lovely fresh air into the room. Curtains were drawn for privacy when we needed it. Breakfast each day was wonderful. Full English cooked to order, with pastries, juice, tea, coffee all available. The dining room was clean and not too cramped, and had the most incredible view of the ocean. Starting the day with that never got old. The bar was excellent, with the barman able to rustle up a long list of cocktails. He was a really friendly guy and we chatted quite a bit both nights. A real boon to a small hotel off the beaten tracks a bit. We walked up to town one evening, a really pleasant stroll along the path, with view of Bamburgh Castle in the distance. The small town has a few interesting little places to look at. Parking is a little tight, but manageable. At least it is on-site and off the street. All in all a really enjoyable stay and wouldn't have changed anything. Its a short drive to Bamburgh, conveniently remote and peaceful, with tranquil relaxation.

Lovely, lovely place, crowded, obviously popular. An old building but very updated, very stylish…read moreand clean. Possibly a good place to stay if it were not for Chillingham. Dinner and the service was nothing short of excellent. The carrot and coriander soup was delicious, garlic mushrooms and a roasted vegie tart were memorable. David and Joyce had lamb, Bobby had halibut, I think I had salmon. The desserts were equally scrumptious. Sometimes a place of this nature will be too stiff and formal for our liking, making us feel out of place. We want to relax and enjoy our food, not feel we are on display to the ever so watching servers. Dunstanburgh had all the qualities of an upper class establishment but without the stiffness. We felt welcomed and right at home.

Chraming cosy pub in Ellington Village in Northumberland. Near to cresswell beach & druridge bay,…read moreyou can easily stop off here if you are on your way up the coast to amble, or coming back down from that way. Very easy to find and such a nice place. Lovely friendly atmosphere, we got a warm welcome when we arrived. They do a good range of food served Mon-Sat 12pm -8pm and Sunday Lunch 12pm - 3pm. I have not tried a Sunday lunch yet but have been midweek when the food was lovely, generous portions! I thought the cost of the main meals were very good and were what I expect from a local pub. Talking to the lady behind the bar she informed us that they have just added some B&B accommodation, this will come in handy for relatives visiting us from Yorkshire, a bit different from the usual premier inn. The pub itself has a very nice lounge, very relaxing with fireplace. There is plenty of seating in the restaurant and this has a warm atmosphere. There is a separate bar area which also has a nice feel to it. I will come back here again, and although I do not live in Ellington, i wish this was my local! Plenty of parking outside the pub. Fantastic pub grub with a good atmosphere and pleasant surroundings, I'll be back!

One of the group cheekily added her request to the already comprehensive menu,........ and got it, Katrina actually going out to obtain her request. Stunning!! Can't speak too highly of the food, some fussy eaters were really blown away by the quality of the food. The Inn itself, is lovely and comfortable, with great atmosphere. Thanks for making the meal special x
